"I was recommended to OMBE by a friend whose surfing was dramatically improving. It was a solid investment for an online course, but within two weeks I already felt I'd received great value from the programme and can easily see how my surfing can progress from being an intermediate to someone who throws buckets!! Cheers, Clayton and the OMBE team"

"I found out about OMBE in 2021 & thought that I would give it a try because I was new to the sport of surfing and still finding my feet. I knew that it would be difficult to get to the beach with restrictions/lockdowns. But within this search/company I have been fortunate to have found a group of great mentors. There is a constant flow of information across..." Read more

"Absolute game changer and genius! I've lost count of the number of breakthrough moments I've had since starting the program, where I'm just thinking "No ways, that did not just happen". When you really get something, the feeling is unreal! And unforgettable. My surfing has improved more in the last couple months than since I began learning a few years ago, a..." Read more

"The 12 weeks program has helped me more than any real time surf coaching that I took til now. The explanations are well structured , they make sense in a mind blowing way and they cover all aspects of surfing. As a landlocked surfer I started to feel a tremendous progress the first time I went surfing after 4 weeks in the program. It's not cheap but worth ev..." Read more

"Very impressive content that feels like it's tailor made for me - an intermediate surfer that wants to keep progressing. I've learned a lot from Clay, and enjoy watching the funny dynamics unfold in the online sessions. I also like the community aspect, and the insiders sessions. Joined for the content, am staying for the fun ;) For me it was a few aha mom..." Read more

"The phylosophy is based on the 4 core elements of surfing : Ocean, Mind, Body and Equipment so you can work on and refine each area to improve your surfing. Clayton has an amazing wealth of knowledge as a world class coach. He uses a very different and fun approach with analogies to others sports and everyday life situations in funny ways which really simpl..." Read more

"OMBE programs are incredible. The reason is that the programs have accelerated the understanding about surf knowledge and skill. Before I met OMBE, I had to gotten obscure technique through others surf. It was very difficult to figure out. However, OMBE programs have guided me simply and clearly. In fact, more I practice, more I figure out about surf. M..." Read more

"As a late frustrated 40s man who got into surfing late in life, I recently signed up for the Accelerated Surfing Program, and I'm really impressed so far and purchased other programs . I cannot speak highly enough of OMBE, and specifically the 12-week Accelerated Surfer Program and surf psychology. Clayton's insight and format of the program really helped..." Read more

"Been watching ombe for 6 months now, as my surfing was plateauing as an intermediate surfer and was looking for a way to improve as trying to figure out issues mid wave was going nowhere. The way clayton breaks down movements resonated with me, and my understanding of how to surf and correct issues has been incredible. As I watch other surfers now can see th..." Read more

"The OMBE training is turning my surfing around. I am becoming more aware of everything, the environment, my body, what I’m thinking. Before I was like a bit of a lost puppy in the water, trying to grab waves and guessing what I should be doing. Now on week 4, I understand what I am to do, where to be, and am working towards being a far better surfer. When lo..." Read more

"I was self taught starting out surfing but realized that there was so much to Surfing that I didn’t understand and couldn’t pickup by just watching my favorites. OMBE is helping me build a solid foundation for myself to build off of by explaining what I never knew. So much depth."

"I started surfing later in life (in my 30s). I have been fortunate enough to have taken lessons all over the world (US, Nicaragua, Indonesia, Barbados, Costa Rica, Hawaii, etc.) While all of my instruction has been great, NOTHING has compared to what I have learned from the Ombe program. Having been filmed in the past, I now wonder why so many of my mistakes..." Read more
