Event information

This event has passed.

This will be our second Catching Waves program.  Participants willl need to be able to swim 100 meters in a pool and to also demonstrate a 30 second float before enrolment in this program will be confirmed. `

Your enrolment will be confirmed once you have completed the swim and float under supervision.   Completion of the assessment is important as you need to be able to enter and leave the surf unassisted, Water safety club members will oversee you in the surf. This first event will be restricted to a  maximum of 10  participants. SLSA has provided us with Hi-viz rashies. Generally, the group will catch waves and it will be in chest deep water.

The first few session will concentrate on the basics of body surfing and  water safety we will then introduce boogie boards

Boogie boards will be available, swim fins can be used in the ocean.

If you want to do some preparation before trying the boogie boards you can find some good "Youtube" videos explaining the basics, just search on google.
