Discover the hidden waterman in you with Brian Keaulana

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 3 April, 2008 : - - Tropicsurf and C4 are offering surfers of all abilities the unique opportunity to experience a Waterman Week with Brian Keaulana in the Maldives aboard the luxury surfing vessel, Tropic Breeze, from June 24 2008.

The Waterman Week will take place aboard the brand new, 113-foot Tropic Breeze, a boat designed specifically for surfing. Surfers will be trained in pursuits such as stand up paddle surfing, free diving, body surfing, hydro foiling, jet ski rescue, underwater self defence and tow-surfing.

Daily breath improvement sessions will teach surfers how to relax underwater, both physically and mentally, and Keaulana’s principles of risk management will be an important focus. Brian Keaulana is a legendary Hawaiian waterman who will be onboard to share his wealth of knowledge and experience. He was once described by surf journalist Dave Parmenter as ”without a doubt the greatest all-around waterman alive”.

Considered an innovator in water safety risk management, Keaulana’s life is defined by the ocean. Born and raised on the beach at Makaha, and a master of tandem, canoe surfing, big-wave riding, and tow-in, his experience cannot be surpassed.

According to Wiktionary, “Describing someone as a waterman is the highest honour in the surfing community, reserved for those with long-standing and indisputably significant all-round achievements”. The Waterman Week is a rare opportunity to be mentored by Brain Keaulana with only a handful of other surfers and gain a lifetime of ocean knowledge.

Tropic Breeze is taking her maiden voyage in May this year and comes equipped with a Jet Ski for tow-ins and water safety as well as two tenders; a 40hp speedboat and a 30-foot doni for the surfboards. It is a spacious and comfortable boat with eight private, serviced guest cabins featuring air-conditioning, ensuite bathrooms and a complimentary laundry service.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn, be challenged, get fit and surf great waves while also gaining waterman knowledge and skills from the best. For more information regarding Waterman Week with Brian Keaulana, visit tropicsurf.net For further information:email info@tropicsurf.net
