Fall 2026 Shred Camp Season

🌊 10 weeks. 📸 4 photo/video sessions. 🏄‍♂️ 3 surf trips. 🌅 1 unforgettable season of progression. 🌟

What is Shred Camp?

Shred Camp is our name for the full Sunrise Surf Academy program, the surf coaching your kid did over the summer, and the fall chapter that follows it. Fall Shred Season is that next chapter, one Sunday morning a week at the beach, running from late August through early November. It's built to keep the skills your surfer picked up over the summer moving forward, in new waves, with the same coaching approach.

You don't need to have been in summer camp to join. If your kid is comfortable paddling and standing up with some help, they're ready. A coach sits down with every surfer in week one to set a personal goal for the season, and we check in on that goal at every session after.

Who it's for?

Surfers roughly ages 5 to 16, at any level from first-timer to confident wave-catcher. Coaches group by skill, not just age.

Where we surf?

Home base is Venice Beach, with sessions rotating to Santa Monica and Will Rogers, plus travel trips out to Zuma, Huntington and San Clemente.

What stays the same from summer camp to shred camp?

Same coaching crew, same 3 to 1 attention, same easy communication with parents you had all summer.

Why Families Choose Shred Season?

Fall Shred Camp is more than just weekend surf sessions — it’s a season-long journey designed to keep kids progressing, confident, and stoked. Families join us because they know their surfers will get:

Shred Season FAQ

Yes. It's built to carry those summer skills forward with the same coaches, just in new conditions and with a season long goal attached. New surfers are welcome too.

We pick each week's spot based on which conditions suit the group best, so a location shown as "or" may shift closer to the date. We always give advance notice before a session.

Only to the meeting point. Shuttle transportation from there to Zuma, Huntington or San Clemente is included, along with the drop off back at Will Rogers or Venice.

A wetsuit if they have one, sunscreen and a towel. Boards are provided. Snacks and water are covered on site, and lunch is included on the final full day trip.

After each session your surfer gets a short note on what they worked on. Coaches also check in regularly with how things are tracking against the season goal your surfer set in week one.

Simple drills to practice between sessions so progress doesn't stall during the week. Nothing that needs equipment beyond what your surfer already has.

The online guide covers everything about the season, and the shared drive is where all your surfer's photos and video from the four media days land, so you don't have to chase them down after each session.

An optional contest on Nov 8 where surfers show off what they've built over the season in front of friends and family. It's not included in the season price, it's a $65 add on if your surfer wants to take part.

No. If ten Sundays is too much for your fall schedule, ask about a single drop in session or a half season pass.
