Hi Dawid, just wanted to drop you a line and congratulate you and Jasper on a very well put together and super informative Surfski and downwind pro compilation. I thoroughly enjoyed the video instruction and am amped to get on the water. Well Done!!
I hope and actually expect you guys will see a huge success from the sale of your videos.
Well, all I can say is that if that video “teaser” is anything to go by then it’s a NO BRAINER! The combined knowledge/passion/experience that is The Mocke’s in a format for people to learn is AMAZING! Sign up paddlers! And enjoy the “ride”!
This is amazing!!! Working with and learning from you two in Cape Town was hands down the best thing I could ever have done for my paddling. The world is lucky to now have that available in an online format!
So, I’ve just finished watching the downwind course. Quite apart from the well presented and shared knowledge – much of which has taken me years to learn and is presented here in a one easy shot – I must compliment you guys on the quality of the footage! I have some experience in this field and in my humble opinion, these videos are worth buying even if just purely for the awesome cinematic sequences that are so rare in the surkski world. Great job, congrats on a magnificent product! Now to watch the next course…
I’ve just completed the Surfski Pro course. So well presented with fantastic visuals to aid the theory. We NEVER stop learning! I was fortunate enough to practice some downwind last night and simply focused on ‘nose in the hole’ and avoiding leaning back (something I realised I do from doing your course). THANK YOU for producing an excellent resource. Looking forward to working my way through the next one. 🙂
Very well edited! Very nice shots and very helpful computer animations! A good learning platform with tips and rules that can be applied straight forward to downwind paddling!
I’ve been paddling my Epic V8 Pro for one year (less since I live in Michigan) and have not had access to a coach. The Mocke videos are an amazing value and I feel like I’m making some progress after having watched them. I highly recommend them.
This is a great idea in so many respects, too many athletes end up gleaning ‘instruction’ from YouTube and opportunistic video clips; a respected platform with experience based guidance will allow people to commit at their own pace. You guys deserve to have success with this!
Congratulations on an outstanding video series! I just watched the whole downwind pro and it’s spot on! Really beautiful and instructive video sequences! Absolutely worth the money for any Surfskier. The ‘the nose in the hole’ sequence is amazing, I watched it 6 times over. It’s the only video sequence I’ve seen that truly shows what downwind surfing is really about and what makes it fun and super challenging.
Guys! The first time I “sat” in a surfski was April 2018. I have had a lot of great teachers, including yourselves, during the last year. However, when you are completely new in the water, 55 years old, you tend to get overwhelmed with info, good advices and experience.. it’s a struggle!
Now, after a year, paddling and studying waves, it all comes more and more to place. Buying the 101 courses, well, I did it without expectations and to support, BUT! It was perfect for me! I can understand, replay, and it absolutely works. Thank you, well done! It is great stuff.
These online courses are not only informative and comprehensive but also to the exceptional standard we have come to associate with the Mocke Brand. I keep on learning new things and my son, who is getting into the sport, is lapping it up.
A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!
Thank you so much!
This is brilliant. 🙂
