In May you can get your VÖWS surf instructor licence at Mission to Surf on Lake Neusiedl! The course instructor is former World Cup pro Chris Pressler

A job as a surf instructor is often the entry into the industry: lots of know-how, lots of contacts and, above all, lots of time on the water. In May 2023, you can once again obtain your Austrian licence at the official VÖWS windsurfing instructor training course in Podersdorf on Lake Neusiedl.

Particular emphasis is placed on comprehensive training in the areas of practical teaching, materials science and didactics. It is also possible to acquire the head teacher licence (station manager) as part of this course.

The course is led by former World Cup pro Chris Pressler and an expert teaching team for specific subject areas such as first aid, meteorology and physics. The team has been working together for 15 years and has successfully accompanied numerous candidates on their way to becoming surf instructors.

  • Date: 17 May - 21 May 2023
  • Location: Podersdorf am See, Lake Neusiedl, Austria
  • Cost: 399 euros for the C licence
  • Information and registration at www.surf-schule.at

Tobi is our digital man, he looks after the surf website and social media channels and gets on everyone's nerves every morning by asking for more pictures and videos. His surfing CV includes all the famous choppy water spots: As a teenager, he went from his home in Münsterland to the Ijsselmeer or the Brouwersdam, and during his civilian service on Sylt, after countless washes on the west side, the Königshafen became his preferred spot. After studying in Kiel and Heidkate, he was supposed to go to Hamburg “only for a short time”, but this short time has lasted for over ten years and has made him a “weekend warrior”. He goes on tour with his family and camper van as often as possible, often to the Baltic Sea, SPO or Denmark, but also likes to go to Finland, Sweden or Sardinia.
