About this experience
Two hours at Launiupoko, the gentlest beginner break on Maui, with a three-to-one student ratio and soft-top longboards that practically catch waves for you. We start on the sand with pop-up technique, then spend most of the session in waist-deep water where your instructor is beside you for every wave. Stand-up rate last season: 96%.
