Itinerary
The beautiful area of Cabuya has a couple of the best point brakes for the intermediate level of surfing in the country, with long, perfect, and gentle waves for right and left is the perfect option to take your surfing from beginner to intermediate. Here we will start to learn the intermediate techniques of surfing to be able to paddle out behind the braking waves area and catch the waves before it's brakes to be able to ride the waves to the side on the face of the wave. After the theoretical introduction to behavior in the water, safety protocol for the intermediate level of surfing, and techniques of crossing waves and turn to the side, we will paddle out in the direction to the channel (were the water come back out after the waves pull water in the bay) where we wait and have a rest until we are ready to catch a wave. Once you ready to catch a wave we will get closer to the breaking waves area to start the fun. the session is usually between one and a half or two hours depending on surf conditions and your fiscal resistance. classes here are a maximum of two participants per instructor.
