ABOUT THE DAY...
Ever wanted to learn how to Surf Skate?
Well now's your chance.
Join us for our One-Day Surf Skate Course to go from absolute newbie, to having the skills to tear it up on the streets and at your local skatepark.
You'll be immersed within a group of new skaters all looking to learn the basics and build confidence, all wanting to learn a rad new skill - alongside helping their surfing in the process.
We start things off with the absolute basics, ground zero, and spend our time fine tuning and building up skills, ending with the culmination of the group hitting the skatepark.
You'll develop the skills and balance to generate your own speed on a Surf-Skate, plus build the confidence to take your skating into the lumps, bumps and ramps of the skatepark.
You'll have an awesome experience, learn a tonne and share plenty of laughs along the way - with everything taught in a fun, safe, and nurturing environment.
HIGHLIGHTS
The course is broken up into x4 blocks:
GROUND ZERO
We assume no prior knowledge and start things with the absolute basics.
We cover board control, feet placement, how to stop and start, and more to get you familiar with your equipment, so that you can ride it in a safe, confident way.
GENERATING SPEED
Once the basics are dialled, we move onto speed generation.
You'll learn how to self-generate speed using just your natural body weight, mimicking many of the actions performed in the surf.
CARVING TURNS & CONTROL
Next up we focus on carving turns.
This is where you'll begin to get ultimate control over your equipment, and learn to zig-zag with speed and flow, whilst maintaining control throughout.
SKATEPARK
The last session is where we bring everything together, a culmination of all the skills learned, as we look for their practical implementation in the skatepark.
As a group we'll head to the nearby skatepark to practice what we've learned, and attempt to ride the slopes and pump the tracks to round out the day's staking, developing a new found confidence, something you can take with you for life.

Hands down the best weekend surfing I've had ever. Loz and Rowan are incredibly talented coaches, and their combo of land and water based instruction saw me progress more in two days than I have in years. I really can't recommend them highly enough.

Just completed a Longboarding course with House of Surf over the weekend and it honestly exceeded all my expectations. Rowan and Roz spent both days with us teaching us in great detail all the foundations of longboarding. With their care, great balance of theory and practice in the water, and their catered adjustments and advice, we all made very visible progress within just 48 hours. I would recommend their services for anyone with different skill levels and goals for surfing. I can't wait to be back in Tauranga to visit again.

I can highly recommend the 2 day longboard boost course through House of Surf!!
I had the b set weekend and even got my cross stepping down - wtf?! Rowan nd Loz (hope I’m spelling correctly) are incredible instructors and run courses in Auckland and the Mt. Your surfing will absolutely improve and you’ll also meet a bunch of amazing people.

Had a beautiful weekend away in the Mount with the House of Surf on the longboarder foundations course.
I’ve done 2 of their weekend boost courses now and they’re jam packed full of info dedicated to getting more women in the water… well worth a get away to the mount if you want to up-skill… Couldn’t recommend these legends more.
