"You guys are legends! In 20 years of surfing this by far the best training program I've seen. If only it was around back then! Now to get to work on undoing all the bad habits I've developed and surf with more speed, power and flow! yew"

"O treinamento,, a preocupação em ter closed caption em todos os vídeos torna esse programa acima da média, a um custo inferior à maioria dos outros e uma excelente oportunidade de aprimorar o seu surf. O esquema de pagamentos em 7 parcelas facilita muito. The training, the concern with having closed captioning in all videos makes this program above average,..." Read more

"OMBE is by far the most well rounded surf coaching I have come across. Clayton's insight has created multiple lightbulb moments for me, even (or especially) after surfing (very average) for 15+ year. The combination of Clayton's wisdom and coaching cues with Cris Mills athletic movement training and Ant providing the intermediate surfer perspective is geniu..." Read more

"Guys, the Surfer Assessment has been an awesome experience. I hesitate to say this but you may be giving away too much for free. My surfing has advanced exponentially after years of stagnation. I'm now considering when I should downsize to a shorter board and I have the confidence to take on larger waves. Neither of those were on my radar a year ago. Th..." Read more

"Probably the best on the market. The logic behind surfing is explained very well and the company evolves rapidly with lots of content. I now believe in their surf theories more than any other school and surf channel and I have made a lot of research; OMBE surf logic just makes sense and have been tested. If you want to surf with confidence and style, go the..." Read more

"Love Ombe Surf. Been following their program for about a month and already seeing improvements. I like that it is no pressure and you can build up your skills as fast as you like. Bought the Bosu surfer and that helped so now I just got the surf skate program and interested to see the progression."

"I grew up on the coast in South Africa, but have been landlocked in Switzerland for 6 years, without the means to surf regularly. I recently bought myself a surfskate and tried it out a few times. It felt much like my surfing does, uncoordinated, forced and frustrating. I then bought the Ombe Surfskate online programme, and within in only 2 weeks of using th..." Read more

"I have spent hours in the water trying to get better by myself, I've had a range of coaching and looking at stuff all over Youtube and the internet to get better at surfing. It has bee such slow progress for me and, as a woman starting surfing late in life, it has been a real struggle. Surfing isnt like other sports, you need to get the technique right from..." Read more

"I've only just started watching the videos and completing the self -assessment, but I'm loving it so far. The way Clayton explains movements, breaking it down into detail, really works for me, and with ways to remember them, like 'coffee cup' etc., I think it will really help my surfing, because I've been plateauing for too long!"
