Bungee Technique
Since the the Surf Center’s inception in El Médano we have had to develop a unique teaching methods due to our shore break and ocean swell. This is how it works:
- Elastic rope connects the students’ board with the instructors’ board.
- The instructor keeps the students’ board on course.
- The student can concentrate on maintaining their balance.
- The student doesn’t get sudden pulls on their board (which would happen with a non-alastic rope).
- Drifting downwind is avoided.
- Direct assistance with turning even in the most difficult conditions.
- Unbelievable progress in a very short time span.
