Hey everyone! The first chapter of Tides and Truths with Clay is going live this Thursday at 10 AM Gold Coast time. Clay and Cindy will chat about how her first coaching experience shifted her mindset around surfing, plus how embracing the tough moments can transform every session.

Be sure to preregister so you don’t miss out!

Exciting Changes Ahead! 🌊

We’ve restructured our footage review process to make it more beneficial for everyone. While live sessions will be on pause as we adapt to new dynamics with our two candidates, we’re thrilled to announce a fresh approach: your submissions will now be reviewed and shared here in the community!

Here’s why we’re embracing this new method:
✔️More Engagement: Posting reviews here encourages interaction and brings our quieter members into the conversation. Lives were limiting, as only those free at the time could participate.
✔️Flexibility for Clay: With a packed schedule of retreats next year, this setup allows Clay to review submissions remotely during his downtime—ensuring faster and more consistent feedback.
✔️Easier Access: Every review and takeaway will be visible to everyone, making it simpler to learn and improve without sifting through past live sessions.
✔️Focused Feedback: This organized system will help you concentrate on specific areas to improve.

🔔 A few reminders:
• Submit one video at a time to give everyone a fair chance for feedback.
• Avoid submitting distant or surf-cam footage—Clay needs clear visuals to provide effective, actionable advice.

We can’t thank you enough for your support, patience, and understanding as we work through these changes together. Your willingness to adapt and grow with us means the world, and we’re so appreciative of this amazing community. 🙏

P.S. I’ve added a Google sheet in the comments for tracking your submissions. If you’d like your older footage skipped, simply select “Y” in column F. This will indicate you’re uploading newer training footage. If you select “N,” Clay will proceed with reviewing your current submission. Let us know if you have any questions!
