"From the minute you jump in the Kool Katz bus, you know you're in
for a unique surfing experience.... Terry is a fun, joking aussie bloke who loves what he does. The class was great - no extended theory - just all action from word go! They offer the no stand up, no pay guarantee - and in our class, everyone managed to get up with no big problems. They may be the cheapest surf school in Byron, but certainly doesn't mean they're not the best... give them a go and you'll have a great afternoon!''

"I also did a half day in Byron for fun with Kool Katz surfing school. If you are in Byron, I totally recommend going out with this outfit. The guy that ran our lesson was a hoot. I saw him recently on the "Wild on... Australia" on the E! cable channel. He is a crazy guy and you should have fun.''

"I was the kid who always had a note from his mum excusing him from swimming lessons. So I was beginning to wonder quite how I had ended up on a surf board with a shaggy, blond-haired, Gerard Depardieu lookalike ... An hour into the lesson and I was looking forward to a refund ...Then Nirvana. For once I caught a wave ... I managed to stay upright until coming to a gentle halt near the shore. Gerard was delighted, too, probably because he would get to keep my money. After that I manged three or four more successes before exhaustion set in ...''

"Surfing lessons: first day of surfing was amazing! I stood up on the first try! It felt like snowboarding but on water. ....Ohhhh, so many great memories. Our instructor was this guy, Terry. He had the mannerisms of Gerard Depardieu with a face like Nick Nolte and the personality of Steve Irwin (Crocodile Hunter)! He was so hilarious and was a really good surf coach! His company is Kool Katz surfing in case you're in town. It was great learning on an uncrowded beach. He drove us to Lennox Head (south of Byron, about 20 minutes away) at Seven Mile Beach. No people in the morning! whoo hoo! And after surfing while he loaded the surf boards on the truck, we got to swim in Lake Ainsworth. It's this amazing lake that looks like a big pot of TEA! Seriously, like black tea! Terry said it was because of all the tea tree oil that would seep into the lake from the tea trees on the shore. Oh, it was luxury.''
