It was my brother's and my first time surfing in Australia I wanted instruction from a friendly…read moreknowable staff. I checked online and decided to visit Torquay. After doing some research we found Go Ride A Wave. After easily booking online we arrived at the shop and met the staff. They were happy and friendly and made me feel comfortable. Becky took us out with 2 others and taught us about the beach, currents and etiquette. After a short and educational instruction on the shore we headed out. Becky was amazing and helped us catch our first waves. She pointed out what to look for and taught us what to do. I caught so many great waves and had a blast. I would definitely go back again. Thanks for great memories and encouragement. I always felt safe in the water with Becky around.

Want to learn to surf in a non-competitive, supportive and fun environment? Look no further!…read more I'm not even sure where to begin! The shop is easy to find in Torquay and street parking is easy. The staff are relaxed and nice, and will help you find a good wetsuit (if the water's a bit cold like when I went.) It is an easy stroll to the beach from HQ, and the on-sand demos and instructions make sense. Once in the water the instructors spend good time with you in a group lesson and make sure it's not frightening. It wasn't scary at all, and I met some nice girls in my group who I'm now friends with in Melbourne. I've been to other surf schools where it felt competitive and I was afraid to ask questions, and I didn't get that here at all. I felt encouraged, and even when I was tired staff kept me motivated. Initially I felt like a fish out of water, by the end I felt like a fish flying over the water. I became a lot more comfortable in the ocean and loved the feeling of riding a wave (okay, it was whitewater- but still, it was a beginning!!) Rad place to go- get the stoke with this crew in Torquay!

A fantastic lesson by Charlotte taught me a lot more than my first lesson. Unfortunately the…read moremiserable weather and poor surf conditions made it tough as a beginner to put into practice.

I love Bumps. I…read morelove it in winter because I can get all my ski equipment rented here. I love in summer because they carry a great range of surf gear and beachwear. Someone told me about Bumps a while ago but it was only last winter that I decided to venture here. Since I'm just a beginner on the slopes, it really didn't make sense for me to buy my own ski's so renting has been the only option. Even though they were really crowded and busy the day I went in, the sales staff were really attentive and helped us choose ski's, ski boots and gear, while helping us save some money by suggesting alternatives. They also gave us really good advice about layering and keeping warm (and cool indoors) which cam in really useful when we actually got to the slopes. All I can say is, with Bumps, I can't wait for next winter!
