Book a Chat (NZ Clients)

If you are not specifically looking for technique coaching, but would like advice on equipment choice, training programmes or anything else SUP related, please fill out the initial information form below. We ask for a NZD$80 payment for one hour up front , refundable if you’re not happy with the advice we give or we can’t help. In general, we usually find that an hour is more than adequate for a very useful and productive discussion. If you would like us to help you create or manage a training programme then this may take a little longer, but still should be no more than a couple of hours.

    Boards and paddles

    Do you want to go faster? Win races? Paddle surfing? River paddling? Paddle for longer? Paddle more effortlessly? More stylishly? Paddle with less pain? Where would you like to be with your paddling this time next year?

    Great stuff, thanks for all the info. After clicking the SUBMIT button below please make your payment of NZD$80 to

    12-3091-0206197-00
    Support Productions Ltd

    Once we've received your payment we'll be in touch to get a session sorted.

    Please answer the questions as fully as possible. The information about you and your paddling may not be directly relevant to whatever you wish to consult with us about, but it will save time (and your money) if we have this information to hand in advance, and will give us a better understanding of where you’re at with your paddleboarding. 

    All information will be held in the strictest confidence.

    Note 1 – General Fitness

    Excellent in any of the categories should mean that you are extremely fit and regularly training in that area, ie lifting heavy weights in the gym for strength, or doing yoga or other specific stretching routines for suppleness. 

    In the ‘anything else on fitness‘ question, try and give us an idea as to your natural strengths and weaknesses. You may not consider yourself as particularly strong in general, but you still may be naturally stronger in your legs with not much muscle weight in your upper body, or vice versa.   This information will be extremely useful in determining the best paddling technique for you.

    Note 2: Understanding of physiology and biomechanics

    No right or wrong answers here, it’s just to ensure we’re on the same page. There is no point in us talking about using your deltoids or obliques etc if you aren’t familiar with the various muscle groups.

    Once you’ve completed and submitted the form,  please make your bank transfer payment of $80 to:

    12-3091-0206197-00
    Support Productions Ltd

    and reference it with your surname and SUPCOACH

    When we’ve received your payment we’ll be in contact to get a discussion booked up.
