The biggest impact on the number of surfer injuries is the crowd factor. When more surfers are in the water, the potential for injury increases. This is especially true for resort areas like Waikiki where a large number of novice surfers congregate. This coupled with the predominant use of fiberglass surfboards creates a recipe for potential disaster. A Hawaiian Fire student enjoys not only the tranquility of a secluded beach, but the controlled environment the instructors are able to create. With absolutely no one else in the water, we are able to fully concentrate on providing the safest surfing experience possible. Think about it. Would you rather learn in a crowded, sometimes hostile, usually dangerous environment where the threat of injury is very real? Or would you prefer an atmosphere where safety is supreme, the surroundings are spectacular and your instructors are among the worlds elite? We think we know your answer!
