Private Surfing Lessons on Lake Lanier

Ready to make some waves on Lake Lanier? Our private wakesurf sessions are all about having a blast with your buddies—no strangers, no split attention, just your crew and a clean wave. Whether you’ve got a couple of hours or want to spend the whole day on the water, we’ve got you covered. Bring up to 5 friends and turn it into an epic hangout—perfect for birthdays, team bonding, family days, or just because it’s Tuesday.

What to Bring
Keep it easy. Show up in swimwear and bring sunscreen, a towel, and a snack. If you want video, bring a GoPro or a waterproof phone case. Flip-flops for the dock are fine—on the boat it’s barefoot.
Sessions Built for Your Skill Level
Never surfed before? No sweat. Our instructors are great at getting first-timers up on their feet. Already riding? Sweet—we’ll help you level up with better control, cleaner turns, and more confidence without the rope. If you’re chasing tricks, we’ll help you tighten up timing and setup so you can start landing new moves.
- First-Time Riders: Board choice, foot placement, rope basics, and simple coaching to get up and stay up.
- Intermediate Riders: Carving, weight shifts, longer rides in the pocket, and working toward dropping the rope.
- Advanced Riders: Dial in wave shape and speed, then work on 360s, shuvits, and smooth transitions.
- Groups (Up to 5 Friends): Everyone rotates through, and each rider gets coaching that fits their level.
A Boat That Throws a Real Surf Wave
Some boats can’t make a wave worth riding. Ours is set up for wakesurfing, and we shape the wave for your size and skill level so you’re not fighting to stay in the sweet spot. Less downtime, more riding.
- Ballast System: Adjusts weight to build the right wave.
- Surf Tab: Cleans up the face and adds push.
- Tower + Rope Setup: Easier pulls and cleaner starts.
- Speed Control: Steady pace (usually 10–12 mph) for a consistent wave.
- Sound System: Connect your playlist and keep the vibe going.
We Know Where the Smooth Water Is
Lake Lanier is huge, and not every spot is great for wakesurfing. We pick locations based on wind, depth, and boat traffic to find the smoothest water we can. Calm mornings are usually best, and on busy weekends we’ll aim early or later in the day. We often run near spots like Buford Dam and around Gainesville when conditions are right, and we’ll slide into quieter coves when the lake gets choppy.
