“Working with Paul at SRF has really taken my surfing to the next level. All of the stability and balance workouts has improved my make in the water. He kicks my ass anytime I’m in the gym and the more consistent I see him, the less I get injured. SRF really gets the body in shape.”

“I love training with Paul because he understands my surfing goals and creates exercises to help me achieve those goals. My strength, speed, balance, and most importantly confidence in the water all improved because of my training at SRF.”
Kai Paula
WSL Athlete
“Training with Paul is awesome! I really love how you can tell him exactly what you want to work on and he will have a whole routine for anything you feel weak at. I’ve only got the opportunity to train with Paul a couple of times but those few times I felt like I got a lot done and my body was feeling amazing. The different types of motions and mobility moves really help with my surfing.”

“I’ve always had a love/hate relationship with training. Training with Paul is always such a good time and he’s been a great teacher, coach and become a great friend. He’s working with some world class athletes and the average Joe like me and his attention to detail and curating the workout for my goals and ability is second to none. Love Paul’s passion and dedication to my fitness journey. He’s made workout out fun.”
Barrett Perlman
WSL Athlete
“Having formerly been a professional wakeboarder, I love to train with the best. And Paul at SRF is absolutely the best. His knowledge of on-the-water movements that surf-specific lends itself to the exercises he designs for each session to grow/enhance/stabilize the necessary muscle groups. I was able to learn moves in the gym that I then applied to my surfing for the first time ever and quickly graduated into being an adept surfer. I’m incredibly grateful to be able to train with Paul as he continues to make each work out challenging, fun, and tailored to my needs.”
Matt Passaquindici

“Whenever I train with Paul at SRF I feel like I’m surfing at my full potential. My balance, strength, and timing are all on point. Paul’s specialized surfing training is critical to taking your surfing to the next level!”
Hira Gomibuchi
WSL Athlete
“So, I’m thirteen years old now, and I’ve been going to SRF for almost three years. I’ve noticed that Paul’s workouts have majorly improved my surfing. In addition, Paul’s workouts have helped me build more muscle, and helped my body function better than ever in the water. You don’t see the results immediately, however if you keep putting in the hours, you’ll eventually see great results!”
