Where you will stay…
This special week will be held at Xanadu Village, our cosy 6-room property in the heart of Kuta. It features a pool, a communal dining room/lounge and a rooftop yoga shala. Xanadu Village is a walking distance from all the cafes, bars, restaurants and shops in Kuta, yet tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac.
The Cherry on Top: A Pro in the Lineup!
As an added bonus during your Advanced Longboard Training Week, you might just find yourself sharing the stoke with a professional longboarder!
We’re inviting a pro longboarder to join us as a “special guest” for each week. This is an incredible opportunity to observe their style, glean insights from their experience, and maybe even share a wave or two.
The pro-longboarder will not be coaching, but it’s a chance to connect with them and learn from someone who lives and breathes longboarding at the highest level.
Why choose this longboard retreat?
However, if you feel like following your own path on a given day during your stay and skip some activities, feel free to do so.
Intensive Longboard Coaching
This week is an all-longboarding affair. And anyone riding boards sub 7-foot need not apply. We’re here for the peeps who know that longboarders have more fun. And we’re making sure that once the week is done and dusted, you come out the other side a smoother, more poised, more self-assured logger.
Log quiver
Video analysis, drills, theory
It might sound intense, but it’s really not. It’s just our way of fitting months of learning into one special week. The video sessions, for example, help you refine your silky style by seeing your surfing from another perspective. As for the drills, they build muscle memory on land so that cross-stepping and noseriding on a wave become second nature.
Thoughtfully prepared menu
We’re foodies at heart, which means we take the time to prepare thoughtful meals that both fuel and invigorate you for the day ahead. Seasonal produce, freshly picked fruit and sourdough loafs baked in-house. Everything is beautifully presented, healthy and clean. And we can easily cater to a variety of different diets (gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan etc.). Big yum vibes. Breakfast, lunch, welcome and farewell dinner included.
Restorative Yoga
Yoga and surfing go together like peanut butter and our sourdough bread. And our resident yogi Bryan will carefully tailor his yoga practices to suit your needs. Bringing awareness both on and off the mat is his main goal. But the soothing of any post-surf sore spots and a heightened sense of wellbeing can also be expected.
Photos & drone videos
You’ll not only leave Lombok with new longboard skills but also with drone video footage and surf photos to brag about all those great waves you had and cross-steps caught on camera. The package includes all the drone videos we shoot throughout the week + 1 day of surf pictures.
