Surf and Rough Water Weekend

August 28, 2020 - August 30, 2020

$295

Join Jeff for three days of fun and skill development on the Virginia Eastern Shore. This class will involve one day of rough/open water training and two days of surfing.

 

The rough water day will be at Smith Island off Wise Point (near Kiptopeke). We’ll deal with the outrageous current that whips around the tip of Smith and the incredible bouncy water that it generates right at the tip. And, the wave train beckons! The class will include strategies for dealing with the various confused water features found in the area and ways of grappling with issues that arise as a result of things going awry. Figure on some incident management in rough water, including rescues, towing, back-deck carries, etc.

 

The two days of surfing will include at least one at Metompkin Inlet and maybe one at Smith island.  If it seems like the surf at Smith isn’t working, both surfing days will be at Metompkin.
