Copenhagen Surf School
We are a small energetic surf family where passion and work go hand in hand. The surf school is founded on strong friendship and our shared burning passion for windsurfing. When you go surfing with us, you are taught by deeply professional instructors and we only use State of the Art – surf equipment. For us, quality and professionalism mean absolutely everything and we never compromise, that's a promise!
2007 - Today
The sun is shining over the surf school and it's never been more fun to go windsurfing at Master Class! More than 250 surfers will meet every week from today and for the next 9 weeks for lots of windsurfing, fun and summer vibes on the boardwalk! 🏄♀️🌴
The surf season has officially started 😍🌴 We're looking forward to five months of non-stop windsurfing, sun and summer vibes with you all!
We just got back from a magical surf trip! For the first time ever, we flew south for the winter with our cool surf students. We landed on an island called "Strong Wind". It was a week packed with windsurfing among dolphins and sea turtles, cold cervezas and Spanish glosses - read it...

When we're not out at the surf school swinging sails or tugging on draft beer taps, we're drinking office coffee, writing emails, instagramming and making wild master plans for the future! 🤙 We're pretty happy with our little (new) office 🪴
BIG NEWS!!! We are absolutely thrilled to finally unveil our brand new collaboration! It has always been our vision to create authentic windsurfing experiences of the highest class! It is therefore with butterflies in our stomachs that we are kicking off the 6th season with what we think is...

Summer 2020 has so far been full of surf, sun and warm surf vibes! July in particular has been fantastic with several tropical days and nights! 30 degrees at the surf school - that calls for a communal dip. And the good weather continues - are you going paddleboarding in...

Then it happened! After 4 years with our beloved "Surfmobile" in the parking lot at Jollevej 8, we now have a permanent location in Amager Strandpark. We have moved into the bunker at Strandstation 3, right next to the parking lot, where we are currently building Copenhagen Surf School 2.0....

True to tradition, the entire surf team goes on a surfing adventure every year in October when the surfing season at the surf school is over. This year the trip went to Bordeaux in northern France. It has become a tradition that no one knows where we're going except Rasmus and Ole - and especially Caroline...

In May 2016, we finally opened the surf school. We had earlier this year invested in an old Mercedes Sprinter which even to this day serves as our beloved "Surfmobil". Despite a single burn-down on the highway right after the purchase, it runs like a dream.
Finally, the car was back on the road again. All the boards and sails were finished and ready. We were now ready to open the Surfskolen!
We now had the entire windsurfing fleet ready. Now all we needed was a car so we could run our mobile surf school. We've had bad experiences with old vans breaking down all the time, but this car purchase turned out to break all records....

In the summer of 2015 we were both living in Copenhagen. The city was great and we had all our best friends around us, but something was still missing - windsurfing. The bike rides through the streets of Copenhagen with boards and sails under our arms made it very difficult to get out on the water and it...

In 2013, Rasmus went to Cape Town in South Africa to train wave performance. He spent 2 months here. However, Ole had moved to Copenhagen to begin his studies.
Rasmus had now also finished high school and we could finally embark on our big trip together - Western Australia was to be conquered. We traveled to the city of Perth where we bought an old Toyota Hiace and furnished it with a bed, kitchen and shelves for our surfing equipment. We bought it...

In the following years we embarked on some big trips, with the surfboard under one arm and the surf sail under the other. In the fall of 2011, Ole went to Jericoacoara in Northern Brazil - a true freestyle paradise surrounded by palm trees and white sandy beaches. High school was over and it was time to...

When the autumn came it was once again time to go north to compete in Freestyle windsurfing. Rasmus heavily surfed and became Denmark's champion in Freestyle windsurfing. For the second year in a row we could proudly take the DM title home to Thurø.
Our beloved sport grew month by month among locals and together with a handful of good friends we founded our very own Surf Club – Thurø Windsurf Club. The club still exists today and counts more than 40 active members.
Within windsurfing there are several different competitive disciplines. In Race and Slalom, it's all about being the fastest surfer on the water. In Wave and Freestyle, the surfer who can jump the highest and do the wildest tricks wins. We were particularly bitten by the Freestyle bug and the many...

In the summer of 2007, we tried windsurfing for the very first time. It was on our childhood island of Thurø, located in the middle of the South Funen archipelago. Ole's Uncle Per was a windsurfer himself from the 80s and had enough surfing equipment to supply the entire island. He quickly became our mentor in the field of...
