Surfing requires a unique mix of athletic abilities to master. Simply being agile or strong is not enough. This program is designed to increase strength, flexibility, and mobility to improve your surfing. In 6 weeks your movements in the water will become easier and sharper, and you will be able to surf longer and more often.
