"I'm not going to lie I originally was really unsure about the programs because it is bit pricey, about the cost of a new board, and some of the things seemed a little corny or gimmicky but I decided to give them a go. And as the saying goes the man with experience is never at the mercy of a man with an opinion. I put a lot of the things to use I I've actuall..." Read more

"The OMBE program was an absolute game-changer for me. While I've had in-person surf lessons over the years, yet I was still making some critical mistakes. The instruction from the OMBE videos provided explanations that fixed my most significant many-year errors, including: 1. Jumping up, not stepping up. Stepping up has far more control. 2. Paddling too har..." Read more

"The Accelerated Surfer Program and 12-Week Challenge are great; OMBE makes the concepts simple and easy to remember. I realised more improvement in a few months after starting OMBE than in the two years before, which included a few in-person coaching sessions."

"Hi OMBE I really enjoyed the 12 week program. I powered through the first 8 weeks then work and some ordinary surf got in the way. Because the online program is flexible, I’m back now. Thanks for the encouragement. Jamie"

"OMBE and the Accelerated Surf Program is fantastic and well worth the investment of time and money. I enjoy the OMBE structure and approach, Clayton’s vast knowledge, but ability to break down and communicate surfing’s fundamentals and how to improve. I live a 100 ks from the coast and get to surf once a week if I’m lucky. The land-based training, creating t..." Read more

"OMBE has exceeded my expectations with their up to date and super easy breakdown of all things surfing. I've surfed for over 30 years and had stagnated in my progression, thinking this was as good as I was going to get, which wasn't overly flash!! So, only 2 weeks into the 12 Week Accelerate program and already I've unearthed skills that I was executing an..." Read more

"A collection of everything you need to know to surf well in the Accelerated Surf Program. Wish I had access to this when I started surfing years ago, it would've prevented a lot of bad habits from forming! Better late than never though, my surfing has improved a lot since starting the program. Looking forward to learning from more new content!"
