Can only say great things about my experience surfing with Rull and Eweh! They gave me insightful feedback that vastly improved my understanding of the basics. Most importantly, I has so much fun ???? Would highly recommend if you are looking for some 1-1 surfing lesson in Uluwatu.

Shalom Kercher

With coach Rull it’s easier for you to become a cool surfer than to become a jellyfish in the ocean. He’s very fun and awesome guy who will teach you how to catch your wave faster! I highly recommend him!

Pilipe

Loved surfing with Rookie Surf Experience. Rull is very knowledgable and eager to share his skills. He has a holistic approach to surfing, and teaches you everything from spotting good waves, positioning and take off, to how to control your breathing to stay relaxed in the water. I learned skills I didn’t think I’d be able to handle yet and my surfing improved a lot thanks his gentle and patient teaching. Had a great time and will definitely surf with Rookie Surf Experience next time I’m in Bali.

Cecilie

I have never tried to surf on the reef, so I was scared about it. A friend from there suggested me Rull as a good teacher that really teach you and not just take you in the water.
So I did and it was a great experience. We trust each other and he took me to Uluwatu dream.
Was great, I had lessons more days, and I learned something new about surf and ocean conditions every day inside and outside of water. For sure I will ask him again when I’ll be back.
Thank you Rull
