by AmpSurf
AmpSurf — the International Disabled Surfing Association — was founded in 2002 by below-elbow amputee and competitive surfer Dana Cummings. The organisation has since grown into the world's largest adaptive surfing programme, running clinics across the US and internationally and developing the competitive framework for para surfing that led to its inclusion as a demonstration sport.
AmpSurf runs free learn-to-surf clinics for people with any disability — amputations, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, visual impairments, autism, and more. Certified volunteer instructors, adaptive boards, and a one-on-one water support model ensure every participant can experience riding a wave. AmpSurf also runs competitive events and supports athletes pursuing para surfing at national and international levels.
Children and adults with any physical or developmental disability who want to try surfing. Clinics are held at ocean and lake locations — the website lists upcoming events and how to register. All clinics are free to participants with disabilities.
