Four-wave sets that keep you in motion
Sessions are structured as four-wave sets, run repeatedly to give surfers near-constant opportunity to paddle back out and catch the next ride, maximizing reps for performance work.
The Peak: a full kit of waves to test every move
The Peak delivers distinct setups across its four waves—steep runners for top-to-bottom surfing, stretched faces for big wraps and end-section hits, slopier take-offs for pumping into heavy hacks, and long, punchy sections that feel beach-break like.
High-performance focus with Gold Coast energy
The session pushes surfers to refine and push their repertoire—head-dips, airs and big wraps are all on offer—making it a condensed performance day that echoes a great outing on the Gold Coast.
