DanSurf

DanSurf was built on a simple premise. It's all about how you take care of the customer. As the business owner and your instructor, my name rides on each and every lesson. It has to be great. Through a decade's experience teaching ocean sports, I've gained keen understanding of what it takes to create a truly outstanding surfing experience. Now, I bring it all together for you. TWO-HOUR SESSIONS to give you plenty of time to pick and ride the best waves. THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT to enhance surfing success-including a quiver of boards for small groms to XL boardriders. USER FRIENDLY PRICING that's the best value in town for a two-hour lesson. Thanks for visiting, Dan
