What is Surf Skate Science?

Teaching Your Children Through FUN

At Surf Skate Science, students are not just skaters in a park or surfers in the water but scientists talking about motion, Newton's laws, simple machines, and the environment.

It's a fact... kids just learn more when learning is hands-on and they are having fun. Our co-op classes offer active learning opportunities where kids can learn the science behind activities they love.

We understand the struggle

Learn the Science of Surfing

You will learn the science behind waves and get to know our local marine life. We will even visit a local shaper and get an inside look at how a surfboard is made.

Learn the Science of Skateboarding

Create your own skateboard deck, learn how a skateboard is created, and find out what science has to do with landing a trick.

Surf Skate Science is a project of Christian Skaters Inc.
