“Both Chuck and Eric are trained and experienced PWC operators and I would recommend this course to anyone who is interested in learning the basics of tow-in surfing and the equipment needed. Remember, safety comes first and in numbers. The more you can learn from trained professionals the safer our oceans will be.” -Archie Kalepa / County of Maui Ocean and Safety Water Patrol
“This course really opened my eyes to how important safety is and how much training is needed. What I learned with Chuck and Eric in two days would have other wise taken me an entire season to figure out. Having just bought a new PWC, I learned how to properly outfit and drive my ski and now I can enjoy my water time and feel somewhat knowledgeable.”- Sean Jenson, Owner Eletic Surfboards-Huntington Beach, CA.
