"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."

"I have been coached for many sports as a kids and an adult, swimming, tennis, ballet, highland dancing, flute, piano, horse riding, golf and probably a few other things... and Amazi is the most rewarding coaching out of all those experiences. Thanks to everyone at Amanzi. Best $$$ value ever."

"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

"Clayton is a brilliant surfing coach, he has a unique ability to explain to just about anyone what they need to do to improve their surfing. 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

"OMBE Surf Training is a fabulous program, I wish it had been available 60 years ago when I started surfing. After an absence from surfboard riding, OMBE has already given me confidence that even at my age I can reach intermediate level again. If you are determined and dedicated the OMBE coaching and drills can take to whatever level you want to achieve. In..." Read more

"OMBE has not only transformed my surfing but has also helped me so much as person. I had kill my ego and peel back years of bad habits. The 12 week course has taken me over a year due to reverting back to old habits. It is finally sinking in and become my new norm. If you're 30+ and tired of being a kook OMBE will sort you out. The stoke is through the roof!..." Read more

"Wish this was around 15 years ago. Great coaching that’s presented in an easy to understand format. A month into it and already found a good half dozen areas where I’ve been using the wrong techniques. In many cases it’s a simple fix and just a matter of breaking out of the bad habits. Helped provide simple fixes to pop ups, paddling into waves, posture, sta..." Read more
