J’étais terrorisée à l’idée d’aller dans les vagues mais Judd a été super rassurant et est venu avec nous en mer, nous a tenu nos planches, nous a guidé sur le bon moment, la bonne vague … rien que pour sa bonne humeur et sa gentillesse, on se relève, on ne lâche pas.. et on reviendra ! Merci beaucoup

Superbe semaine passée au côté de Paul et Judd. Mes filles ont été ravies de l’apprentissage, aussi fun que technique. Paul et Judd sont pro, attentifs et complémentaires dans leur approche. On adore! Et on renouvellera l’expérience pour sûr! 🤙
