In this week’s episode of the Basis Surf Podcast, we have surf coach Nette Klement ( @neeetteee ) who works with Surfing Your Fears, the Salty Souls, and the Salty Club. Nette has an incredible approach to helping surfers overcome their fears in the water, from understanding currents to dealing with long hold downs and from helping surfers with their paddling technique to surfing bigger waves. Originally from Holland, she also shares her journey from learning to surf in the inconsistent waves of the Netherlands to navigating some of the world’s heaviest right-hand point breaks in El Salvador.
