About Our Founder

WITH OVER 25 YEARS OF SURFING EXPERIENCE, Christian is the owner and founder of LA Surfing School, California.

He grew up in Florida before relocating to Hawaii for much of his youth. He quickly gained competitive success and was a sponsored surfer for many years. He found his true passion was sharing his love of surfing with others. As he has travelled all over the world to surf, he has a vast knowledge base to share.

In addition to being an accomplished surfer, Christian is an excellent and patient teacher who can adapt his methods to your individual needs.

He has over ten years of experience teaching all levels of surfers. The majority of his experience came from working with the infamous “Uncle Bryan” and the Sunset Suratt Surf School on the North Shore of Oahu.
