Don't buy your wetsuit online -- this is a great shop and it's worth trying your gear on in person. Matt at Urban Surf helped me pick out a wetsuit, gloves, and booties that I'm really happy with. They also have very reasonably priced surfboard rentals. I was so happy to find this shop and benefit from their great advice.

Brett is the best! My first lesson on an efoil was great, just the right amount of feedback & letting me experiment. After figuring out how to plane, getting the board to foil was a wild experience. Highly recommend!

This was awesome. Fun to learn. If you’re comfortable riding a board, you should be up and riding within the hour. Don’t get me wrong It’s not press-go like a jet ski, took a couple tries to get up. Then learning to carve a turn, not simple, but so satisfying when you do your first without wiping out. I’ve done board sports all my life. Foiling is like nothing else. You have to try it.

Just had an e-foil lesson with Brett, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in giving the sport a try. He was friendly, patient, and a great instructor, and it's a lot of fun. Plus, Urban Surf was really great about resheduling when I had to change the original lesson time. If you're thinking about it, go for it!

I had a fantastic time on my EFoil lesson with Brett from Urban Surf. He is an outstanding instructor. I couldn’t believe my progress and my lack of wiping out. And I think both were due to his good explanations, and just having me learn everything gradually on the right equipment. I highly recommend beginners or intermediate, and advanced to take lessons from Brett. It was really fun.

Had an efoil lesson with Brett. It was absolutely amazing. He helped me learn the basics and was very informative with how to correct what I was doing wrong. It is an amazing way to go from zero to riding.

Took a newbie eFoil lesson from Brett at Urban Surf. Couldn't have been better. He was thorough, careful, safety conscious, clear with instructions, encouraging, and your basic nice guy. What more can I say, other than the whole thing was a hoot!

Had an efoiling lesson with Brett. It was amazing and I can’t recommend it enough. He was incredible at explaining the steps, breaking things down and giving tips and making adjustments. He adapted perfectly to my pace of learning, and I never felt unnecessarily slowed down or pressured to move faster in any way. I loved it so much I might just do it again to experience more board configurations. Additionally, Brett was incredibly passionate about the sport and would enthusiastically discuss and answer my million questions/comments. You’ll be given everything you need to have a great and safe time on the water. Thank you Brett and the team at Urban Surf.Now if only my wallet was this happy about my new potential hobby.

I took a efoil lesson from Brett after watching people hover above Lake Union for a year. Signup feels a little sketchy: pay first and schedule later, but it's real and it seemed like just about any day was possible. Lessons happen at Magnuson Park. Brett was a great teacher, patient and flexible. He stayed well past the time my lesson ended and brought everything I needed, from wetsuit to helmet (He even shared his sunscreen). If you're thinking about it, I'd say do it: it's fun even if you have no experience.

Gear, surfboard, and Efoil. Perfect experience. Flew from Alaska to get gear. 4mm suit, hood, and board. Had everything necessary. They helped with every detail. Plus they made availability for an Efoil lesson and due to a scheduling error even extended my time to 3 hours. Met the owner Matt who was very helpful and so was Brett the instructor and all of staff. Learned, stood, and glided.

This is the best place in Seattle to try Efoil. Matt the owner was great and communicative and Brett the trainer was more than amazing. Had fun and will definitely come back again for few other classes.

Not from Washington state but I did just conclude my stay here, and if you want to go paddle boarding I recommend checking these guys out! Super friendly, they allow you to rent a board and they show you how to properly set it up if it's your first time using a paddle board! Will definitely stop by with these guys again in the foreseeable future!

I took an efoil lesson from Brett. It was awesome! If you ever wanted to try this, take a lesson here, seriously. Broke down the steps to get up in a straightforward logically way. Changes instruction tempo based on individual learning curve. It was a great experience and I definitely will be on the water again soon!
