There’s more than just one way to ride a wave. In Caswell Bay, Wales you’ll find a one-of-a-kind surf school. Originally working out of the back of a car, Surfability UK now operates from two purpose built buildings with an ever-growing range of specialist equipment.
Since 2013, coach Ben Clifford has been individually tailoring surf lessons to people living with a range of different disabilities. With 10 years of successful operations behind them, they are now setting their sights even further and sending athletes to compete around the globe.
Surf’s up!

AYO I saw the channel shut down like a year ago or 2 and it’s back up?…
Sigh…tried. Couldn't even get onto my knees, much less stand. My world is under, not above water. Before there were classes in breath holding I could stay under for 5+ minutes when I was nine and got seriously into technical cave diving when I lived in Florida. It was great fun.
AWESOME
I thought this was jack Harlow
Beautiful and uplifting story ❤
Genius…awesome people..illuminated persons…there're no words to describes what you are. the world would be a better place if everybody would be like you. 🤙🙏💗
Wow, this is amazing. I'm so afraid to crash under the wave 🤣and these people are all so fearless! I truly admire itb
"Hopalong" on the back of the jacket. Hilarious. What a legend.

I hope more schools open like this this surfing is one of the strongest antidepressants in nature in my opinion.

I was lucky enough to film them in Caswell Bay… And may I say Wales is looking as sunny and beautiful as Pismo Beach 🏄♂️🌊
