Your Surf Coaches
Owen
Owen of WaveCaddy Surf is one my favorite characters to find in the line-up. He lives for surfing. He’s one of an increasing number of surfers who embraces a multi-discipline approach and has an innate appreciation for all styles and forms of wave riding. He surfs a wide range of sizes and styles of surfboards with expertise, and somehow is able to switch back and forth eloquently. He is a top-notch surfing teacher and coach and is very serious and focused on each individual lesson as if it has deep meaning and importance – which we all knows it does when we are in the student’s position.
He’s a smart dude who’s degree in Environmental Resource Management and HND in Surf Science & Technology compliment his vocational ISA Level 2 Surf Instructor & RLSS Beach Lifeguard qualifications. Owen has spent in excess of 20 years hopping the globe, riding the seasons, and logging countless hours of water time. His invaluable knowledge he is only too happy to share with his clients to help accelerate their learning experience.
“To me surfing is about tapping into the energy of the ocean and flowing with it. I try to install this approach with my students. I want them to be in tune with the environment in which they surf!…I especially like coaching intermediate and advanced students with the emphasis being to create a sense of ease, connection and understanding in their surfing”
