CAMP FAQ: MULTIPLE WEEKS OF CAMP

text

Frequently Asked Questions:

KID’S SURF & S.U.P. CAMPS 

How many weeks should I sign up for?

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM 1, 2, 3 or MORE WEEKS:

  • 1 week of surf camp provides the basic understanding of surf & ocean safety
    • For focused campers, or returning campers (from previous years) it is enough to instill the basics for independent practice
  • 2 weeks of surf camp allow for a huge boost in camper’s confidence
    • As campers repeat the program, they are more comfortable in the unique camp setting and skills begin to rapidly improve.
  • 3 weeks of surf camp is really a treat for a camper
    • During the 3rd week, campers feel “at home” at camp. Most 3rd week campers have naturally developed relationships with their counselors and are celebrated for their dedication.
  • More than 3 weeks of surf camp gives campers continued practice of their surfing techniques, but may not be the most effective way for improving skills beyond the basic fundamentals.
    • We offer options for campers who have “graduated” through camp to progress their skills rapidly and effectively :
      • Transitioning to a private lesson package working one-on-one with an instructor they have built a positive relationship with is the BEST way for a surfer to begin learning the advanced skills of surfing.
      • Boy’s & Girl’s Grom Teams for kids in grades 5-9 are a great way for focused young surfers to develop their skills in an advanced team setting all summer long.
