You are sitting out the back, waiting for your next wave. A set starts to roll in and you pick what wave you want… here it comes.. are you ready? Quick you need to turn your board around and get in the right position to catch it. But hmmmm how do I quickly turn my board around?
In our third edition of our tutorial series, Senior Instructor Jared takes us through the easiest way to turn your board around!

Duck Diving… what is a duck dive?
A duck dive is a technique used by surfers to sink their boards underwater to duck under the breaking wave, allowing it to roll over them.
This is a skill that will take a little while to get a hold of, so in our 2nd edition of our Tutorial series, our Senior Instructor Justin teaches us how.
Just press the play button on the video to see how.
Welcome to our Tutorial Series!
One of the best things about surfing is you can always improve! So we are going to help you on that journey with our series of helpful informative videos.
Our first is ‘The Eskimo Roll’
The Eskimo roll is flipping your board upside down with you on it, allowing the wave to roll over you. Sounds easy, but its a little bit trickier than you expect. Press play on the photo and our instructor Brad will show you how!
Lets Go Surfing is very excited to announce they have won the prestigious Gold award for Adventure Tourism in the recent 2021 NSW Tourism Awards. This is the fourth year LGS has won this prestigious award.
“We are so surprised & stoked to win this award. We had a dream to win at the NSW Tourism Awards once, a few years ago. To win this award again after being inducted into the ‘Hall of Fame’ is such a surprise & a proud achievement and testament to the passion and commitment our whole team demonstrates on the beach everyday, living our motto, ‘changing lives… one wave at a time’ Brenda Miley, LGS Founder & Surf School Director
“The NSW Tourism Awards are a celebration of the outstanding resilience and innovative spirit demonstrated by our magnificent industry over the past two years,” said NSW Tourism Industry Council Executive Manager, Greg Binskin.
Brenda Miley started Lets Go Surfing out of the back of a Kombi van on Bondi Beach in 1995 as an idea to encourage more women into surfing. In the years since, the team has grown to help thousands of people from all over the world learn to surf, developing confidence, focus and strength and most importantly…. have fun!
The last two years have been challenging for everyone however we have had amazing support from our local community, our team & of course visitors to the beautiful beaches we are so blessed to surf!
“Our goal is to be ‘the world’s best surf school experience’ and this award really recognises and acknowledges the amazing local community support we have received and the hard work our team put into making this goal a reality. We’re living proof that surfing helps develop health, focus and a connection with self.. Changing lives one wave at a time.” Wacca, LGS Managing Director.
Lets Go Surfing would like to thank the local community, council, their partners and all of their customers for the support over the last 27 years and look forward to sharing the stoke of surfing with one and all in the years to come. Bring on 2022!

Lets Go Surfing – Changing lives one wave at a time.
On June 8th we celebrated World Oceans Day. A day that means a lot to us, as the Big Blue is literally our office. We want to do everything we can to protect our Oceans, day in and day out.
Knowing that all small gestures help, our LGS team jumped onto the sand at Bondi for a Beach Clean Up. In just over 30min, our bags were filled with rubbish. Surprisingly nothing big, a good sign that the early morning sweeper trucks from the Council work. However, countless items of microplastics were collected, hiding within the soft grains of the sand. A strong sign we need to do better.
Our friends from Australian Marine Conservation Society ran their World Oceans Day campaign to help save our seas. For every dollar donated, it was doubled. We were so stoked to be able to help with your support!
At Lets Go Surfing we were amazed by the generous donations from our guests/clients while booking a surf lesson online. It is heartwarming to see so many of you giving back to the Oceans. Together we were able to donate $3200 to AMCS this World Oceans Day.
With so many other Ocean caring people the funds raised this year allows the AMCS to fight for:
Thank you for your ongoing support, helping us protect our Oceans and wildlife.
