Review

This has got to be the best learn to surf DVD around. Lots of good information and is interesting to watch. A mix of instruction techniques, slow motion freezes and surfing action shots. I was entertained the whole way through and I learned so much. This DVD is for beginners and doesnt confuse you with other advanced surfing techniques that only the pros know how to use. I didnt realise there was so much to know at the beginner level. Well done ASI on a great DVD. --Alistair Peters
