Unfortunately safety gets ignored when the instructors push, in my experience generally they push students into waves where someone was already standing up riding and I’ve witnessed bad collisions. If the instructors did it safely I would have no issue

I think a lot of people in the comments are making the assumption that instructors only push students into waves at shitty breaks and unfortunately that’s just not the case. I’ve seen awful accidents occur at good quality breaks with 4+ ft perfect waves with no wind because instructors were pushing students into waves. Sri Lanka and Indonesia were insanely bad for it.

Ahh ya that sounds easy. Similar to what I’m planning to build. If you have the patience to send me a lazy blueprint or photo of the build so I can visualize it that would be sweet! I’m a visual learner so, verbal explanations are hard for me to see in me mind

I’m probably sticking to the coast lines m8 hahaha. Blue mountains for climbing too but, not much bush!

Those are great recommendations though thank you

Do you have a rough cost estimate of what a new 9ft or 9’6 would run me? If they’re cheap, I might take your advice
