Surf Skate Training
North County San Diego: Encinitas, Carlsbad
Surf skate training is the use of a specifically designed skateboard to train surf mechanics on dry land. With the use of the surf skate trainer, we can eliminate variable such as giant swells, crowded line ups and inconsistent surf while honing in on your skills. One minute of surf skating can be equal to 10 waves! It is the closest thing to surfing outside of the water and is also a great tool to work on and exponentially improve your movement, balance and muscle memory.
Lorenzo is one of only a few coaches in California who uses surf skating as a training tool to improve his client’s surfing. Lorenzo uses a holistic approach to train his clients both in and out of the water to elevate their surfing.
