- GROMM+: independence in the white wash
Get acquainted with all aspects of surfing & have fun doing it.
Haven’t surfed before or are you working on the basics of surfing? Then get into our special ‘gromms’ class; the basic surfing class for kids. Here you will learn everything that is important if you are just starting to surf. Of course, the gromms surfing class for children is fully tailored to your level. You will be taught about safety, the sea and the equipment we use while surfing. You will also learn the basic skills, paddling technique, ‘catching’ waves and very important; the take-off! In the gromms classes, you learn to stand on your board like a real surf dude or surf chick.

- YOUNG RIPPERS: your first clean wave and the technique behind the surf
- YOUNG RIPPERS +: down the line, timing & independence
You have completed the gromms classes and have all the basic skills! Together we work toward ‘real surfing’. You are going to learn how to ride ‘clean’ waves! We coach you in knowledge of the sea and tricks for getting through the surf, such as the turtle roll. We also work on related strength development, fitness and agility and the real steering begins. With the young rippers, you will learn your first turn!
You have a good basic knowledge regarding sea and equipment. Basic techniques such as paddling and the take-off are familiar. With this group, we continue with the technique ‘behind the surf’. Getting to the back independently, picking waves, down the line, turns and maybe already working towards a competition. This level is also related to the physical development of the child, some strength is a requirement here.
