"The best surf training program ever. Clayton's knowledge and wisdom is off the charts. I've been surfing wrong for 20 years. At least now I can correct the next 20. I've had so many lightbulb moments. Surfing is starting to become easier, I'm taking off deeper and having a ton of fun. Deirdre"

"The best surf coaching ever! Breaks the technique down into simple terms and gives drills that you can do at home. Most importantly it tackles how you can overcome any fear or anxiety that might be holding you back. I can’t speak highly enough of this product!"

"I started to follow the program and my live in the water has changed completely. I'm quite a beginner and I was struggling to catch and pop up consistently. After following the online basics program I managed to go from a 20% success rate to catch almost everything on small surfs in barely a week. I started having so much fun. I was focusing on the wrong th..." Read more

"This online surf training and coaching platform is truely one of a kind... I learned so much that everytime I think back to the times a was in the water and had no clue what was going on... It allows the users to get a deeper understanding of what is going on, around you but also in your own head and body whilst surfing. I would absolutely recommend this OMB..." Read more

"Loving the revelations from this training, all of it is clear and makes perfect sense. Particularly like that it integrates some psychology into both the learning method and the mindset needed for surfing. Wish I had done it years ago! Thanks to the OMBE team for putting it all together."

"I have been surfing for over 36 years, but am always looking to improve. After trying many different online surf programs, OMBE is the best, incorporating theory, surf psychology, video analysis, land drills (using bosu balls, cardboard, and surf skates), and water drills. I’m addition to training videos, they host special Zoom coaching sessions and a couple..." Read more

"I've been a surfer for 20+ years and the OMBE method is teaching me so many things I never figured out through my own trial and error. It's an amazing program to learn how to surf very well or to fix bad habits. As for me, I'm in the process of both learning new things and undoing bad habits! Absolutely loving the process!!"

"Outstanding content. I’ve learnt more in two months of following the OMBE 12 week program than I did in four years of surfing previously. Check out all the free content on YouTube and especially via the OMBE App and the paid programs build off the top of that."

"Should have done it years ago. I have recently signed up for the 12 week program and loving the content provided. I’ve been an intermediate surfer for over 20 years now. I started in my late 20s without ever really having been taught how to surf. Just by watching mates and pouring over magazines (it was the 80s) was the way we learned. I realised that I rea..."
