Seb

Founder and Head Coach

“ Being able to pass on my experience and see progress in people is something I enjoy”

Across Europe, Central America, and South America, I spent years working as a Surf Instructor and Coach at surf schools, competing with strong results and riding as a sponsored surfer along the way.

When I moved to Edinburgh in 2016, my career evolved, growing to encompass Surf Coaching, Surfskate Coaching, and Surf Advising. It was here that I developed my own surfskate training format, and the results speak for themselves: progress is immediate!

Scotland has incredible waves, but consistency is rare and the cold can sometimes have a way of keeping you out the water. Surfskate training is the answer. A way to keep progressing year-round, no matter the forecast. And whether you're a seasoned surfer or have never set foot on a board, the courses are designed to meet you exactly where you are.

The SurfSkate Academy was born from passion. A deep love of waves, surfing, community, and a desire to inspire more people to take that leap into the sport. You don't need to be a surfer to carve up the asphalt. The feeling of riding on land is a thrill all its own.
