Squad tips:
We train in all conditions all year round!
-
Rookie coach Mermaid - will offer swims in/ out through the surf & across the beach behind the waves when appropriate.
The group will swim along the beach inside the break when the surf is too big out the back!
-
Experienced swimmers coach Spot - will take the advanced swimmers through larger waves where you will be amazed by what you will learn & achieve.
We also do longer swims along the beach & towards the headlands!
We will help teach you how to deal with different conditions that may arise on any given day.
This includes tips on:
-
Getting under waves.
-
Getting across sand banks.
-
Navigating once out the back.
-
Learning about rips.
-
Catching waves!
Big swell - we run sessions in all swell types: Rain, hail, swell & shine!
Beginners take note: We swim along the beach for beginners when the surf is big!
Beginner standard - those can swim 1km.
Swimmers are limited in the surf by their pool speed, hence, you will struggle in swell according to your ability.
In short, the minimum standard is for your own safety & helps us to be able to look after all squad members!
If you are not a strong swimmer, CLICK HERE for our stroke corrrection & pool swim options!
You will be limited by your swim speed, so we suggest that you attend pool squad training in conjunction with surf squads.
* Coach Spot tip - build swim fitness in the pool (& running).
This compliments surf training = icing on the cake!
Please note - The ocean is the master & needs to be respected.
Wesuits available from Fast Gear Sports: 2 - 8 Campbell Pde, Bondi (opp Icebergs).
