SUP Course

Super professional SUP Course. Experiential, exciting, empowering, physical, strengthening, body shaping, and did we mention fun?
The amazing thing about SUP is that it is a state-of-the-art fitness machine, that leaves dust to any other fitness equipment at the local gym.

In addition, it is a tool that will take you to practice meditation in the quietest and most relaxed location in the city. After 10 minutes of paddling and 300 meters from the shore and you are suddenly in Sinai. After 10 minutes of paddling and 300 meters from the shore and you are suddenly in Sinai.

Kobe-surf-better surf school is also known as one of the best places to master SUP riding (paddling) or SUP surfing. Our SUP course (held in Tel Aviv) offers paddling techniques, and all the basic principles of SUP surfing

The knowledge and tools you will acquire from us are designed to allow you to continue training on your own, to go out to sea and surf with confidence, both in the control of the SUP and in understanding the sea, the currents, the winds and all the is needed for safe and enjoyable paddling.

Paddling without understanding leads to poor technique, lack of ability and low-level performance, resulting in injuries!

As a small school we will not take you out for training with an instructor that leaned to stand on a SUP just last Thursday, and his experience at sea is quite similar to yours.

SUP courses and lessons take place at the Dolphinarium or Mana Ray Beach, near the Etzel (Irgun) House. The SUP training is conducted by Kobe Shafrir, 15 years on SUPs of all kinds, including SUP surfing.

This means that you will obtain knowledge at the highest level – the number of spots in each course or lesson is limited, and there are high demands on specific days, such as Fridays or days when the sea is flat and the conditions are perfect.

Surfing on a SUP is the gateway to classic surfing (surfboard or longboard) for many. You have been warned 🙂

You can purchase a single SUP lesson without a full course. The advantage of the course is the construction of the learning material and the program, as well as the high commitment of the trainee and the instructor leading to higher quality and concentrated training, taking the trainee faster to an independent path, equipped with more tools.
