About Wade

Wade is the first person in California to offer stand up paddle board instruction — the first. With over twenty years of teaching experience and thousands of students taught, Wade has seen every obstacle a beginner can face and knows exactly how to overcome them.

Wade grew up on a farm and later became a stock trader before discovering his passion for stand up paddleboarding. He has surfed some of the biggest waves in the world on a SUP board, including Mavericks, and received an invitation to the Nelscott Reef Big Wave Surf Tour.

Wade's teaching philosophy is simple: get people up and paddling quickly using proper technique that works with your whole body — not just your arms. His students learn to paddle for hours without fatigue.
