AUGUST FOCUS: BUILD PHASE 💪

August is where we start building.

We're still in our Base Phase, but the intensity lifts slightly to around 70–80% as we continue building a solid aerobic foundation for the months ahead.

This is the perfect time to refine your technique, experiment with different skis, paddles and gear, and make sure your setup is ready for summer. Don't overlook full-body conditioning either. Strength, mobility and stability all play a big part in becoming a better paddler.

Resistance work remains a key focus. Adding a bungee to your ski once or twice a week is a great way to improve technique, power and functional strength when the water is calm. Always prioritise good technique over more resistance to avoid injury.

Our World Championship athletes now move into their Competition Phase, with just 73 days to go until racing begins in Villajoyosa, Spain (9–11 October).

Whatever your goal this season, now is the time to build the foundation.

Sometimes all it takes is one session.

One small adjustment to your stroke.

One tip that suddenly makes balancing easier.

One lesson that gives you the confidence to paddle in conditions you've always avoided.

That's why we love one-on-one coaching. We can focus entirely on you and the areas that will make the biggest difference to your paddling.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to take your paddling to the next level, we're here to help.

No two paddlers are the same, so no two sessions are either.

One person might want to feel more stable in the ski. Another might be chasing a more efficient stroke. Someone else may be getting ready for their first downwind.

Our Daily Individual Sessions are tailored to what you want to achieve.

Some of the things we regularly work on:
✔️ Balance and confidence
✔️ Paddle technique
✔️ Efficient forward stroke
✔️ Catching runs
✔️ Downwind skills
✔️ Ocean confidence

Whatever your goal, we'll help you get there.

Book your session and let's get started.

Squad FOCUS - July is all about getting the small things right.

Before every session, make sure you have these four essentials:
💧 Water bottle
⌚ A watch
🏷️ Grip or markers on your paddle
📋 Know the session

Winter is also the perfect time to fine-tune your setup. Try different skis, paddles and equipment now so you're ready when summer arrives.

This month we'll also be focusing on resistance training. Boat gym sessions are a great way to develop technique, power and functional strength when the water is calm. If you have a bungee, add it to one or two sessions each week, but always prioritise good technique over pulling harder.

The strongest paddlers aren't just the ones who train the hardest, they're the ones who prepare the smartest.
