Such a great experience! Fantastic teacher! Rass was the most patient man ever. He made me feel comfortable and at ease immediately. He gave great instructions to me on how to improve each wave. I went with someone from a different shop the day before and decided to try somewhere else and I’m so happy I came across Pappy’s on trip advisor! So much better for me.I would 100% recommend anyone to take a lesson with Rass - he gave so much encouragement which is exactly what you need when you are really bad like me 😂. I had such a better experience today thank you so much Rass!
