Dave was awesome! Best lessons ever. My wife and I had a 2 hour session and by the end of the day, she was trying to surf without the rope. Money well spent. We plan on taking some advanced lessons soon.

Never disappointed by another wake surfing session! The sessions go by in a flash and I can’t wait to book my next surf.
This is my 3rd time back surfing with Austin WakeSurf. On my first session, Dave helped get me to the point where I was actually surfing a wake comfortably. By the end of my third session (yesterday), Scottie helped me get the point where I was carving up and down the full wake! It was an amazing experience and one I will never forget. By mashing up his experience of using precision when skiing professionally and his experience in wakesurfing, he was able to clearly articulate exactly what I needed to do to improve my surf. During my last session, I was doing technical surf moves which I had never done before!
The icing on the cake was when my friend’s 7 year old daughter kept asking to try to surf. Us «big» boys thought it might be a bit too difficult given how intense getting up can be, but Scottie switched up the mount by having her being dragged on the board while holding the rope, then allowing her to slowly get on her knees and eventually onto her feet (don’t know if this is clear, but basically, she was surfing for over 2 minutes on her feet while holding the rope). Needless to say, I was floored by how quickly he enabled her to do this. Pure awesome!
I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it until something better comes along, but this is by far my favorite thing about Austin! Keep up the great work!

Soooo much fun! My bf and I wakeboard and have been wanting to try wakesurfing for sometime. We finally got the chance in Austin.
Scottie was our instructor. Very knowledgeable and chill dude. He is quite the teacher and continuously gave us tips to get better. By the end of our 2hr session, Scottie was teaching my boyfriend how to carve in and out of the wave and even let him use a more advance board. Just a testament to how awesome Scottie is and how he can challenge you to do more once you nail the basics. We hope to be back in Austin and wakesurfing again with Scottie when we can!

Awesome experience! We had 4 first time wakesurfers (3 guys, 1 girl) and everyone got up on the board and had a great time. We had an amazing coach/​driver in Scottie and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Austin Wakesurf!

8 guys in Austin for a weekend from Chicago and Indianapolis for a bachelor party. I am speaking for all 8 guys when I say we couldn’t have been more pleased with the activity and service. Scottie took us out and was exceptional. He made the whole experience great for every guy at all different skill levels. His laid back style was perfect for the event. And wasnt too chatty when the rest of us just wanted to hang out and do our own thing. Oh and he also went above and beyond by calling in on some morons driving golf balls off a cliff into the water by Hwy 360… also let another boat nearby know and got us out of the area to be safe. Total professionalism. 5 stars, incredible service unbelievable experience and it starts weeks before we ever flew into Austin as Dave the owner worked with me personally on the reservations. I’m the best man for the wedding and had to do the planning. If your considering an activity that a group of guys in their mid 20s will like. Stop looking, book now, and get ready for a blast!!!

From the 4 Divas and 1 Goofy:
We are a group of 5 ladies who wanted to see what all the hoopla was about regarding wake surfing; and we could not have been any happier to have received our first lessons with Dave from Austin Wake Surf!!! EVERY SINGLE one of us got up!!! Dave was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and super fun to learn from! We had so much fun –we extended our lesson for additional time because we didn’t want it to end! He had all the gear, sweet boat, and tonz of personality to make our first experience INCREDIBLE!
What a fantastic day on the lake! If you wanna learn how to wake surf-​do it with Dave from Austin Wake Surf! We did and we’re gonna call him again for advancedl lessons.

Aussie Dave took four of us Wake Surfing over the weekend. It was a blast. We all had lots of fun. Everyone had no trouble ‘getting up’ and riding after some coaching by Dave. He was an amazing driver, great coach, and almost *too* friendly. The boat we rode in was very nice, comfortable and threw a HUGE wake. We were 20 – 30 minutes late, and he graciously extended our lesson to get a full three hours on the water.
I would recommend this to anyone interested in trying out the sport– or just wanting to spend some extra time on the water trying new tricks. I am already ready to go again!
