Longboard Masterclass: Noserider
Refine your technique. Elevate your flow.
Our Noserider course is designed for competent longboarders looking to take their logging to the next level: focusing on flow, style, and critical time on the nose.
Do you find yourself cross-stepping towards the nose but not quite getting 5 toes hooked? Or wanting to bring more flow and control into your surfing?
Through 1:1 tailored coaching, detailed video analysis, and structured feedback, we break down the key concepts behind effective noseriding and critical turns, such as positioning and setup to timing, footwork, and control in more critical sections.
This course is about refining the details that make the biggest difference, helping you move with more flow, control to perform critical nose rides and turns when it matters.

Why choose a Zest Surf course?
Our coaching is built on over 25 years of experience, shaped by competing internationally under some of the world’s leading surf coaches and performance teams.
Every session is filmed.
Video analysis is one of the most effective ways to improve your surfing, because it lets you see exactly what’s really happening. Plus, with two coaches in the water and one filming from land, you get real-time feedback in the moment, followed by same-day video analysis to break everything down. So instead of guessing, you leave each day with a clear plan to improve.
