THE SURFER’S ROADMAP

How The Surfer’s Roadmap™ works…

Whether you’re looking to take a self-guided course at home, engage one of our technique specialists for some personalised coaching or come on an in-person surf retreat somewhere amazing, we’ve built the solution for you.

Our process is simple.

There is a predictable and optimal line on every wave that a surfer must take to achieve ‘surfing’.

By standardising this line, and the skills required at each stage of it, we’ve created a structured checklist of techniques that can be taught and optimised for better surfing.

Each technique should build upon the one that precedes it, and should support the one that follows it. All with the goal of helping you become a confident, capable surfer who can dictate where you go and what you do on each wave.

Essentially, we’ve taken the complexities of surfing and have distilled them into a comprehensive, step by step, logical curriculum. And it works.

Combining learning science with surfing.

Our curriculum and cueing systems are designed with learning science in mind.

Regardless of ability, every surfer shares a common trajectory toward mastery. The Surfer’s Roadmap approach identifies your current stage and limitations, helping you craft a specific plan to accelerate your journey toward advanced surfing.

By establishing specific surf cues and success metrics, we give you a tangible way to track progress and master new skills.

  • "Kale has produced a program that has made strong surfing technique available to everyone. My world has opened up."

    —Kev

  • "It is so far beyond anything else that's available. The sophistication, the articulation - it allows you to think about and develop your surfing in a totally new way."

    —Justin

  • "I started with the online courses, did video analysis, and now I've been on at least six retreats. There's a reason I'm sticking around, and it's because my surfing improves every time."

    —Erik

  • "It's honestly hard to believe my surfing keeps improving in my 50s. All my friends are asking me what I've been doing but for now I'm keeping TSR a secret until I'm uncatchable haha!"

    —Lana

  • "I have learned more in the last week than I have in all my 20 years of surfing. I finally have a clear roadmap on what I need to improve moving forward - and that clarity feels amazing!"
