About me

My name is Jorge, and I am the founder and head coach of Chubby Surf Team.

With over 30 years of surfing experience and a decade of instructing in a wide range of environments and ocean conditions, I bring a strong foundation of expertise to every lesson. As an ISA-Certified Surf Coach, I work with students of all ages and specialize in guiding beginner to intermediate surfers. My approach focuses on safety, technique, and steady skill progression, ensuring each student develops confidence and a solid understanding of the sport.

About Chubby

Chubby is an inclusive surf brand committed to opening the world of surfing to everyone. We believe the sport should be accessible regardless of physical ability or body type, and we aim to create a supportive, empowering environment where every individual feels welcome to learn, grow, and enjoy the ocean.

About Classes

I offer surf lessons for all ages and skill levels, with options for private sessions or small group classes of up to three people. Each lesson is two hours long and covers ocean safety, basic surfing techniques, and—for intermediate surfers—skills such as wave reading and maneuver development. I am also in the process of creating multi-day surf classes to provide a more immersive learning experience.
