When do I Pay the local payment for the Surf Instructor Qualification and why?

The local payment of $1,000 AUD (or US $750 in Indonesia) is to cover the cost of the official certification and accreditation as a level 1 instructor through ASI. This is not a mandatory charge and the Academy courses can just be used as a personal developmental tool if preferred.

The local payment covers the following qualifications: Ocean Surf Safety Award Apply First Aid (Senior First Aid) Surf Coaching Level 1 Award Advanced Resuscitation

Surf theory lessons and coaching practical opportunities will increase your chances of being completely prepared for the qualifications assessments. The academy is a challenging and exciting experience where you learn new skills and make new friends along the way.

How long does it take to develop an intermediate surfing skill?

To surf at the intermediate level requires the ability to ride waves and perform manoeuvres in the correct section with correct balance. Most importantly, it requires an ability to read the waves and how the elements and conditions alter their state.  A general knowledge of the ocean and surf, hazards and conditions at different types of surf breaks are all important factors to give a holistic understanding of intermediate level surfing. No wave is the same. No surf break is the same. Conditions can change constantly. This knowledge and skill can only be acquired by time in the surf and practice. Depending on your ability, ocean and surf knowledge and experience, it takes approx. 500 – 1500 hours to be able to surf at the intermediate level.
