Ryder by name, rider by nature. We spent some time getting Ryder comfortable on the board whilst out in the waves and it didn't take long before he absolutely sent it on his first ever wave!

We're back in the Bay and open for business! Today we kicked things off with our first lesson of the season.

It wasn't your typical lesson but our first ever dog surf lesson! Jo's dream is to be able to take Ryder out on her board in the surf. We managed to get Ryder confortable standing on the board whilst we paddled around in the shallows. Both dog and humans had a great time out in the water

We're looking forward to see how Ryder takes to the waves in next weeks session.

It's our last week here in the Mount before we migrate north to warmer waters! We'll be back in town sometime at the end of the year for the next NZ summer season, you can catch up with us then or early next year if you're keen for surf lessons. Chur for now.

Rapolas from Lithuania came for his third lesson today. He has been putting in the mahi out in the waves between lessons and his commitment is definitely starting to pay off. Chur Rapo keep sending it bro!
