SURF SOCIAL
A WEEKLY SOCIAL DROP-IN CLASS, BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
SURF SOCIAL WEEKLY CLASS $20
OVERVIEW:
SURF SOCIAL WEEKLY CLASS
DIFFICULTY LEVEL: ALL LEVELS
DURATION: 1HR
GENDER: MIXED
YOU, A BOARD, SOME STRANGERS... LETS GO!
Let’s be real for a sec — meeting new people as an adult is ridiculously hard.
Like, weirdly hard.
You’re either:
We weren’t meant to live like this.
We’re social creatures. We just forgot how to... actually be social.
That’s why we started Surf Social — to give people a low-pressure, high-stoke way to meet other people in real life, without it feeling like a networking event or a therapy session.
No awkward icebreakers. No forced fun.
Just the ocean, a bunch of friendly strangers, and the shared understanding that none of us really know what we’re doing — in surfing or life.
And honestly? That’s kind of the point.
NOT A SURF LESSON
Sure, there’ll be boards, waves, and a few tips if you need them - but Surf Social is really about finding your people (or at least people who won’t judge your pop-up).
No pressure, no cliques, no one trying to be the next Kelly Slater.
Just a bunch of good humans, hopefully some half-decent waves, and a chance to do something a little different with your week.
A FEEL GOOD BONUS
This is a not for profit program, which means that all proceeds will go toward supporting local up-and-coming surf talent - so while you’re out there flailing around and making new mates, you’re also helping the next generation of young surfers chase their dreams.
So really, you’re kind of a hero.
As it's all about the social aspect we'll do drills, games, and competitions.
We'll get stupid, and keep things as light and fun as possible.

If you've got your own gear, by all means bring that along, or if you'd rather use ours we have a tonne of wetsuits and surfboards you can use free of charge for the duration of the program.
FAQ'S
We'd love to say we can guarantee perfect waves every time, however the truth is, that's not possible.
We're at the whim of mother nature, and we'll embrace it in all its forms.
Furthermore, the way the content is structured, the quality of the waves effects us little in the learning process.
We make the most of whatever conditions we have on offer.
Come wind, rain, hail or shine, we're ready to go.
Surfing is a sport that embraces all the elements, and we do too.
We're lucky in the Mount in that there's always a wave for us to practice on, even if it's really small.
We've got some great equipment in-house, big buoyant boards, to catch even the tiniest of waves - giving us plenty of opportunity to practice what we learn.
If the beaches are closed and conditions are too dangerous for us to hold the session, we'll be forced to postpone.
We'll make this call no later than 24 hours prior to the session start date.
The session will be made up the next week.
Who knows. That all depends on the week, but hopefully a big group to create plenty of new connections.
