I built my surfing foundation through Junior Lifeguards, wrestling, 24hr ocean/cliff rescue and time with shredder friends. With 33 years of dedicated practice, I now coach surfers of all levels, sharing techniques, insights, challenges and unique awareness the surf breaks demand. I've also used CAD to design next-gen surfboard fins. These airfoil-based, winged fins generate more thrust and lift, making surfing easier and more controlled for beginners while unlocking radical lines for experts.
"I thought I would feel self-conscious doing a surf lesson with Todd, but instead it was a very fun surf and I was surprised at how many unique insights he was able to share with me. It really helped me see so many more ways to find rides amongst the waves at my favorite spot. He also helped me learn a couple new techniques that are helping me with how I stand up and enjoy the gliding part of my rides on the waves.
