Thundergrass2016-07-18Verified Great surfing lessons, especially for the kidlings in your group! We just returned from a week long vacation in Avalon, NJ. As a special treat we enrolled the 5 of them in a morning 1-hour surf lesson that met on the beach at 24th Street. We've tried to enroll them in lesson in the past, but usually call with less than 24 hours notice. Thankfully, Avalon Surf Camp was able to swing a lesson for the kids. We were delighted that each child had an individual instructor. The kids, all girls, ranged in age from 9 to 14 with no prior surf experience. The girls were a little nervous but the surfer-dude laid-back attitude of the instructors quickly calmed the nerves. But while being all surfer-dude like, the instructors were serious about safety and technique. The went through a mini-lesson on the sand and practiced popping up on the board and laying on the board. They talked about how to approach waves and more. Then they hit the water. I'm not a surfer, so I can't say if the waves were good or not, but I can say that eventually every girl was standing and riding waves. They were smiling and crashing, splashing and laughing. The instructors were encouraging without being coddling. And they coordinated well with each other to make sure that everyone was safe and having fun. The hour went by quickly and our daughters emerged from the water among foaming smiles. My one daughter said that she could do it for 5 more hours. They have week long surf camps with 2 hour lessons per day. I think that we might try it out next year!
