"Best surf coaching instruction I have ever received, so many light bulb moments! Can't recommend this program enough, Clayton is a great teacher and explains all the aspects of surfing clearly and gives you practical ways to practice and improve. This program is by far the most effective thing I have done for my surfing progression!"

"How I see it is... You can be blindly ignorant and follow the "learn on your own" method which leaves you frustrated and unhappy or you can take the shortcut by learning from someone like Clayton who'll make a difference to your surfing 🤙"

"The most insightful explanations of surfing and surf movement that I have seen so far. Clayton's way of analysing, explaining and breaking down movement patterns is second to none and he will see minute details that most other people cant see. Ombe seem to have covered all the bases with having the best people in their fields as part of the service, whether..." Read more

"Rarely do I ever leave reviews but I'm completely compelled to do so for Clayton and the OMBE team. Clayton happens to be the first ever surf coach that can use simple language and metaphors and explinations to help you realise what's going wrong with your surfing and then how to fix your surfing problems or sticking points with simple techniques. Find him..." Read more

"I am a landlocked surfer from Germany, so training on land to maximize the fun and progress during my limited time in the water is key. I had so many lightbulb moments watching the videos from Clayton it is insane. You can really feel a big difference when you try the techniques he teaches on a Bosu or Surf Skate! I can't wait to hit the water in the Canary..." Read more

But in reality there is just so much more high quality content and these guys have put together the A-team of surf coaches to cover every technical and psychological..." Read more

"I've been learning how to surf from your online surf program with my mum and I love it. I really like the Bosu Ball balance practise and the unique cardboard slide concept. And I can also ride a carver skate board properly now."

"Learning to surf is stressful. Battling through white water to get out, fighting currents to stay in place, identifying your status in the lineup and having to deal with the alphas, paddling into a looming set-all are just precursors to catching the wave. Then tunnel vision compresses your view, paddling blindly into a wave, feeling it smash behind you, stru..." Read more

He takes complex movements and breaks them down into simple easy to follow improvement methods...I can only guess that this comes from many years of deep thinking and practical experience. Working with Clayton I and m..." Read more
