For advanced surfers, we provide in-depth coaching one on one to really help with improving everyday surfing, technique correction using video analysis and simulation on the smoothstar skateboards.
Surf Safety
I have the utmost respect for the ocean and always put safety first.
Our beginner lessons are at Seven Mile Beach, Gerroa, the best learn to surf beach in Australia. The waves here are small and break slowly, which gives the beginner surfer long comfortable rides without being nervous about being dumped.
Surf Coaches
All our surf coaches have these qualifications:
- Long term surfers who are experienced in all conditions.
- Supply First Aid (SFA) qualified
- Ocean Safety (OSSCA) accredited
- Level 1 Coach qualification with Association of Surfing Instructors (ASI)
- Working With Children (WWC) checked.
To see the pure joy on Byron’s face after his skating lesson with Rusty was such a treat.
Watching how Rusty is able to connect with the kids and celebrates their achievements in such a positive way is heartwarming.
To find something that your child is interested in can be hard enough but when you find a way to encourage their interest and provide the skills needed is such an amazing feeling for this proud mum. Thanks Rusty Shona

Our 8 year old daughter has been learning to surf with Rusty at Gerringong Surf School for over a year now. Her confidence in the water, wave knowledge, and safe approach to surfing have sky rocketed since starting the classes.
Rusty’s infectious enthusiasm for teaching surfing and giving the children a positive, confidence building start, to becoming water men and women is inspiring.
Highly recommended for any kids who any have a desire to get in the water and try their hands (and feet!) at surfing. Steve
