Frequently asked questions.

  • Surfskate training in the bowl allows you to develop correct technique of manoeuvres through repetition in a controlled environment. It enables you to develop solid foundations without overwhelm and fast-tracks your surfing.

  • Due to different types of movement required for skill development in the bowl, age does play a factor. If your child has surfing or skating experience, around age 6 would be the lower age limit. If your child has no previous experience, 8-9 years of age is ideal (depending on the child), utilising the private session starter packs. A one-off group class is not suitable for a complete beginner with no previous experience.

  • Yes, Surfskate Noosa accepts Play On! sports vouchers. You can use your voucher toward eligible surfskate classes or coaching sessions. Simply provide your voucher details at the time of booking, and we’ll apply it to your session. If you’re unsure which classes are covered, just get in touch, we’re happy to help.

  • You don’t need previous skate experience however it does help. If you are a beginner/low intermediate surfer, it is recommended that your first class (minimum) is private. The Starter Pack private sessions are a great option for this.

  • Ahead of purchasing private coaching sessions or starter packs, call 0433 267 804, direct message on Instagram or email surfskatenoosa@gmail.com

    We can determine if private coaching or a starter pack is right for you and lock in a time and date for your first session.

  • Yes absolutely. While the surfskate bowl is designed to help people improve their surf manoeuvers and technique, surfskating is a fun way to get a feel for body movement, balance and control which are all great skills to develop surfing as a beginner.

  • Barefoot shoes are the best footwear. The bigger/thicker the shoe sole, the harder it is to balance. No Hoka’s!

  • If you have your own surfskate board and safety gear (helmet, elbow, wrist and knee pads) bring them with you and a water bottle. Surfskating can be thirsty work!

  • Safety gear is available for use. Depending on which pack or class you purchase, boards are provided or available for hire.
