Why Preparing for Your Trip Matters

Surf trips often mean: 

  • More sessions

  • longer paddles

  • less recovery time

  • More physical demand day after day

Hi, I’m Greg Finch.

I’m a surfer, coach, husband, dad, and the founder of Surf Strong For Life. For more than 20 years, I’ve helped people build strength, mobility, endurance, and resilience so they can keep doing the things they love.

For me, that thing has always been surfing.

My mission stays rooted in one goal: help surfers stay strong, mobile, confident, and stoked in the water for life.

I’m grateful to partner with Rise Up Retreats on this Surf Trip Prep Program, and I’m excited to help you show up better prepared for your trip.
