These courses are reserved for people who already have a good command of basic surfing techniques (take off, bottom turn, frontside/backside speed). Groups can range from 3 to 6 people maximum for 5-day courses, but it's also possible to book half-day individual lessons to make rapid progress.
Olivier Napas is in charge of the advanced courses. He's a real expert, and the only instructor to hold the BEES 2nd degree on the island of Tahiti. He'll take you out by boat to surf his favourite spots all over the island, particularly around the reefs on the west coast. The spot may vary according to weather conditions or the level / average age of the group.
To help you progress quickly, you can rely on video analysis and personalised advice from the instructors on quality spots to work on all your techniques.
All the equipment you need is provided by the school: surfboards and bodyboards of different sizes, lycras and wax. Insurance and transport between your place of residence and the beach are also included in course bookings.
Minors must wear a helmet (provided by the school if necessary).
