EasyDrop

The EasyDrop Surf School tradition and experience joins individual attention with the highest equipment standards.
The school works with its own, highly developed teaching program that was originally based on the official Australian Surfing Association program. Nowadays the EasyDrop program is following its own principles, combining advanced teaching methods with maximum safety and modern educational principles.
The students are generally adults of all ages and skill levels, who traditionally come from all over the world.
A little more than half of the EasyDrop students are female.

All EasyDrop surf course programs include full equipment, daily transportation to the best surf beaches in the region, and at least 4 hours of video controlled instructions per day.

Today we have a few more new tidings for HighTech Travel and its clients:

a) We have now decided to include our weekly edition, on DVD, of the daily video footage of the surf sessions, and a CD with all photos of the photo sessions of the week, for each participant who signs up for at least 6 days of surfing with EasyDrop. Our DVDs include the edited version of approximately 60 min of the surf sessions from Monday to Friday of each week, including all surfed waves of each student, and the best moments of the group during the week. The CD holds all original high resolution shots of the group, including photos from the in-water (water-proof camera) session, and our tele-photo session, besides landscapes, beaches, waves and moments of the week.

These 'freebies' will be handed out to each client on Saturday evenings and will no longer be posted through the mail. Therefore, clients attending EasyDrop who leave during the middle of the week will only receive the DVD and CD with photos from the sessions of the first week of the client's stay.

b) Upon viewing and revising our complete surf course, we have decided to include a new type of surf course in our program, our "Advanced Surf Guiding". This program was initially intended to qualified returning surf school customers. However, considering that there are experienced surfers who would probably like to enjoy this kind of service, including HighTech Travel clients, we decided to extend this offer to all our customers and operators.

Our "Advanced Surf Guiding" includes:

Daily transportation (by car or boat) from EasyDrop HeadQuarters to the best surfing peaks in the region of Itacaré;

Full surfing equipment: boards, leashes, wax, rash guards, surfing hats (sun-protection), longboard carrying straps;

English-language guiding at each different peak, explaining the features, dangers, rules and etiquette of each peak;

Permanent video recording from the beach of each daily surf session;

Video analysis with EasyDrop instructors on a big projection screen of the daily surf sessions;

2 photo sessions per week, one in-water (waterproof camera) and one from the beach with professional tele-lens and camera;

All high resolution photos on 1 CD for each participant, handed every Saturday evening;

Edited version of approximately 60 min of the daily video footage of the week, from Monday to Saturday, on 1 DVD for each participant.

The minimum number of days required for the "Advanced Surf Guiding" package is 6 days, as always not counting Sundays which are off at EasyDrop, nor arrival and departure dates so as to avoid conflicts with flight schedules and surf sessions.

Besides, since this modality is intended for more experienced surfers, so as to not interfere with our lesson program and with the other surfers in the water, we are in the process of developing a questionnaire to be answered by clients interested in this type of course, so as to verify if they qualify for this program or not. Upon reviewing and studying the client's response, we will be then confirm if the client will be able to participate in this program. As soon as the questionnaire is ready to be used, we will send it to HighTech Travel.

However, in case an HighTech Travel client is interested in this modality before the questionnaire is delivered, please contact us right away and we will get back to you to see if your client qualifies or not. Thanks!

Either wise, please note that EasyDrop also reserves the right to 'upgrade' the client's surf modality to the '"Complete Surf Course" during the extent of his stay at EasyDrop, in case we feel that he does not qualify for the "Advanced Surf Guide" program.
