Learn to surfskate
Surfskate brings the flow and feel of surf to land. A specialised front truck allows for short, manoeuvrable turns and a fluid ride where speed is generated through pumping as you would when surfing. Surfskate is exploding in popularity as an aid to surf progression as well us for the pure fun, fitness and wellness it offers.
Lost Shore is proud to host The SurfSkate Academy and offers guided sessions for surf skaters of all levels on an individual, group or public basis.
A surfskate and helmet are both provided, and you may also want to bring your own knee, elbow or wrist pads. Appropriate footwear is essential - please no flip-flops, crocs, wellies, open-toed sandals, heels!
A 50 minute session on 4 wheels that's been honed through teaching hundreds of our youngest budding surfskaters.
Lots of fun, lots of smiles, a great introduction to the sport and a perfect way to engage active kids.
