Do you dream of water like we do?
River Surfing……………………………………………………….Feeling the water rush past you, the speed of the wave, oh and the excitement of the wipeout. Yep, that’s what it is all about. Come learn to river surf with MST Adventures. We host clinics at various waves from the Rio Chama to the Animas. Our staff knows what it takes to get you comfortable on the water. Starting with body boards and working our way up to stand up river surf SUP’s we will get you riding waves in no time at all.
So don’t be a “shubie” and come learn to ride the wave!
What’s included in our Surf Clinic?
MST Adventures will provide certified instruction at a ratio of no more than 3:1 so our time, is your time. We will provide the river surf equipment (i.e.. board, leash, helmet, wetsuit, and PFD) for your day on the water. Your river surf lesson last 2.5 hours which include dry land training.
Where are do you host your clinics?
River locations will vary based on water levels and time of the year. Our clinics will be held at various waves from the Rio Chama to Animas, no down river travel is required as all locations are park and play.
Our instruction starts on land with learning the pop up, strategy for getting on the wave, using your hands as paddles, and reading the water. We will also cover river safety, using QR Leashes, river and wave etiquette, and river signals.
We then move to the wave and progress our journey from bodyboards to standing. With a small group there is plenty of time to rest between “sets” and enjoy the warm sun.
