SO THE 19TH SEASON BEGINS....
All the team are back in the country and the new grommet, Joel, arrives this evening.
I´ve just had my SURFER´S EAR OP after putting it off for about 5 years and although I haven´t surfed for nearly 2 months I am stoked to have it. Thurs 18th is S Day!!!
Why do I mention this? Well it´s because, as you´d expect, the surf has been pretty much OFF-THE-HOOK ever since I became land-lubbed. Albeit a few rainy days we´ve had temperatures up to 28 degrees during Feb with sick glassy south coast. Flippin´typical!!
Pre Op I started to use SORKYS ear plugs which pretty much changed my life. If you don´t have these things you NEED THEM. Fortunately we got them in stock on arrival - would ya believe it.
As we all know March is the end of Winterdom and begining of the rebirth of Springdom/Summerdom/Sodomydom. But, or when Winterdom comes around again, take note as it really is a great place to be, hang , eat well, surf open breaks and not neccessarily bone-crunch your brain with Absinthe. Good Times, and everyone that was here bloody loved it like ratty the dog loved pissing on babys.
So here comes the ROCK N ROLL....you know how it goes. Best bloody time of your life.
BOOKINGS are now rolling in with JULY being the pick of the months so far only beaten by the BANK HOLIDAY BONANZA of EASTER.
FIRST BOOTCAMPS WILL BE
MENS : NOVEMBER 19TH - 26TH
GIRLS: NOVEMBER 26TH - DECEMBER 3RD. (SOLD OUT)

Thanks for an awesome three weeks, I really enjoyed my time with
you guys. You've got one of the few (maybe only) surf camps around
Europe which can cater for absolute beginners and experienced
surfers, in a fun and supportive environment. And being based in
Lagos with all the restaurants and bars is pure brilliance.I've decided
to donate my board and board bag to the surf experience cause,
I've left it next to the recycle bins." Stu - Australia.
