What a great experience we have had with my 2 daughters (10 and 12) at Freedom Surf camp. Gilad is so invested in their growth and respect for the ocean. This is our second year with Freedom and I am impressed how he was able to get my younger daughter who is more timid into the water and riding with confidence.
