The school

Four levels, from first launch to riding on your own

The school says it teaches in four levels: Into The Wind, Drift & Power, Chasing Wind and The Horizon. A beginner typically needs about 9 to 12 hours of instruction to ride independently, and every student receives an IKO certification to the level they reach.

Lessons are based at Ocean Park Beach and the school is affiliated with Numero Uno Beach House. Instructor names, the owner and the founding year are not published on the pages we checked.
