    Coach Chris Testimonials

    Chris is an awesome and dedicated surf coach. What I liked the most about his coaching was his honest but constructive feedback as well as easygoing and kind nature. I improved a lot while surfing with him and would recommend him to anyone who wants to level up their surfing. Don’t fall for that trick with the free Bintang, though. He still owes me about ten.

    Chris helped take my surfing to the next level. In three months he coached me from beginner surfer to independent surfer. I am extremely grateful for his coaching and feedback he provided in and out of the water to improve my surfing and for the explanations he provided. I would absolutely recommend Chris as your surf coach.
