What It Is
Most surfers prepare for competitions by surfing more. The Competition Block gives you 6 weeks of structured preparation built specifically around your event — technique, heat strategy, mental performance, and Reubin on the day.
Three in-person sessions across 6 weeks, with weekly remote coaching between each one. A written strategy document specific to the event, the break, and the conditions expected. Heat simulation exercises in sessions 2 and 3.
On competition day, Reubin is there. Pre-heat briefs. Between-heat analysis. On-site support from someone who\'s watched your surfing closely for 6 weeks.
"Competition performance is a skill. Not just a result of surfing well in training. This block trains the skill."
— Reubin, RSJ Head Coach

- Surfers who want structured competition-specific coaching — not just more sessions
- Club-level through to national-tour competitors wanting professional event prep
