You have searched and trawled the internet to find the perfect surf camp for your surfing holiday, spoken to friends and family, and finally you have booked. Stoked! 

The surf, sun and sea are calling as you get closer to your surfing holiday, so what do you need to know or do to get ready for your surf camp experience? Here are 3 quick & easy ways to make sure you are in prepared for the fun to come!

There is NO better way to get surf fit other than surfing (obviously!), but if you are a city surfer or planning your first surf camp experience and waiting for our legendary surf camp instructors to show you the ropes then a great option is to just keep swimming!

Build up your paddle strength with a few laps at your local swimming pool. A couple of times a week will really help to increase your paddle endurance whilst out on the water, allowing you enough energy to nail that pop up!  Not only will this help to build up your paddle strength and endurance, but also help with water confidence in general. So jump in and get paddling!

You’re thinking about that moment of riding those waves and when you ace the perfect pop up, what next? Nobody wants jelly legs when you are riding the stoke, getting that beautiful buzz every surfer searches for after standing up, so adding in a run once a week will definitely help!

Kelly Slater and Sally Fitzgibbons, to name a couple of pro surfer yogis, both include a yoga practice in their everyday life, as there are many similarities between the surfing and yoga worlds; including improving your balance, building strength, helping you to connect with your surroundings and enjoy living in the moment!

There is a huge digital surfing world out there full of videos and picture on tips for the perfect pop up (check out our Online Surf School, too!), watching the pros riding the craziest waves so get pumped for an amazing experience with us on your surfing holiday and follow us on our social media for more stoke!
