ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

Having fun with family. 家族で楽しく

Reviewed by: FUJIMOTO

We were invited by our 23-year-old son and participated as a family, including my husband, daughter, and four sons. Although we couldn't improve as quickly as the sons, it was a wonderful experience to share as a family, creating very good memories.

息子23歳に誘われて夫婦と娘、息子四人で参加しました、
息子達のようには早く上達できませんでしたが、家族で同じ体験ができ
非常にいい思い出となりました。

I don't understand Japanese. 日本語が通じない

Reviewed by: rakko

It's disappointing that the instructor is a foreigner and all the explanations are in English without a Japanese driver providing interpretation. The photos are available for $30, so you should consider the participation fee plus the $30 for that.

インストラクターが外国人で、説明も全て英語で日本人のドライバーが通訳してくれないのが残念。写真は30ドルでUSBがもらえるので、参加費プラス30ドルで考えた方がいいです。

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

First surfing!! 初サーフィン!!

Reviewed by: まめまめ

I was really anxious because all the lessons were in English, but the teachers were very kind, so I enjoyed it. The person I took the lesson with was also Japanese, so we were able to chat and have a good time together. I did get seasick while surfing, and by the end, my energy and stamina were down, but I did manage to catch a few good waves, so I want to try it again. Next time, I'll take some motion sickness medication. Thank you very much. It was fun!!

レッスンはすべて英語とのことでとっても不安でしたが、先生方がとってもやさしい方だったので楽しめました。
一緒にレッスンした方も同じ日本人の方だったので、お話しなどできて楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。
サーフィンは波酔いして最後のほうは気力・体力がダウンしてしまいましたが、うまく波にのれたのも数回あったので、またやってみたいなとおもっています。
今度は酔い止めのんでいきます。
ありがとうございました。

Trade the Mai Tais for a lesson

Reviewed by: Adam

I'd been wanting to do this the last two times i have visited Hawaii but had never gotten around to it... probably too many Mai Tai's! I'm so glad i managed to tear myself away from the local bars to give this a go this time. HHSS were great, the instructors were all really good even though 2 or 3 were clearly on their first day. I managed to catch a few waves and may have caught the surfing bug as well! Highly recommended!

Surfing experience サーフィン体験

Reviewed by: Mac

The waves are small, but even without much paddling strength, you can ride them if you time your push on the board well, so anyone can catch a wave. If I could wish for anything, it would be to ride slightly bigger waves so that it wouldn't get boring until the end.

In the end, everyone was able to stand up and strike a pose with smiles.

Anyway, paddling is tough... At the end, I was able to purchase a CDR of the practice footage taken from the beach for $30.

Overall, I am satisfied.

小さい波ですが、パドルの力が無くてもタイミング良くボードを押してもらえるので誰でも波に乗ることが出来ます
欲を言えばもう少しだけ大きい波に乗れると最後まで飽きなくていいなーと思いますが

みんな最後には立てるようになり、笑顔でポーズを決めていました

とにかくパドルがキツイ…
最後、練習風景をビーチから撮影いただいたCDRを30ドルで購入することが出来ました

概ね満足です

I decided to take this surfing lesson based on reviews while participating in the Hapalua Marathon (my first marathon). Since it was an English lesson and I can't speak English, I was a bit anxious, but once we started, I understood through gestures and it was fine. The waves were small, but I was able to ride them and it was fun! I think I'm going to get hooked on surfing!

ハパルアマラソンに参加(人生初のマラソン)するついでに、サーフィンも初体験しようと口コミを参考にしてこのレッスンに決めました。英語レッスンということで、英語がしゃべれないので不安はありましたが、いざ始まってみるとジェスチャーなどでわかり、大丈夫でした。小さい波でしたが、乗れて楽しかったです!サーフィンにハマリそう!

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

It's really fun! やっぱり楽しい!

Reviewed by: はなぶ~

This is my second time participating. Three years ago, when I joined, we had to carry the surfboards from the shop to the beach ourselves, which was quite heavy and challenging. However, it has improved, and now we only need to transport them from the car parked by the beach to the water's edge! This is much easier.

I signed up for a group lesson, but since there were only two of us that day, it turned into a semi-private lesson, which was lucky. The timing was perfect, and I was able to stand up properly from the first try! The instructor spoke mostly English, but once we were out in the water, we only needed to use commands like "paddle" and "stand," so it wasn't a problem if you didn't speak English. Occasionally, they checked on us in a mix of Japanese, asking things like "Are you tired?" (laughs).

The group doing stand-up paddleboarding at the same time also let us surf towards the end. All the staff were friendly, and I had a great time participating again.

2度目の参加です。3年前に参加した時はサーフボードをショップからビーチまで自分たちで運ばなければならず結構重くて大変だったのですが、改善されてビーチサイドに止めた車から波打ち際まで運ぶだけで良くなっていました!これは楽チン。

グループレッスンを申し込みましたがこの日は二人だけだったので、セミプライベートになりラッキー。タイミング良く波に乗せてくれるので、1回目からちゃんと立つことができました!
担当してくれた方はほとんど英語ですが、沖に出てしまえば「漕いで」「立って」くらいしか使わないので英語が出来なくても問題ないです。時々日本語まじりで「ツカレタ?」などと気遣ってくれました(笑)
同じ時間にスタンドアップパドルをしていたグループも最後の方にはパドルを置いてサーフィンをさせてくれていましたよ。スタッフは皆フレンドリーで今回も楽しく参加できました。

Reviewed by: SEATAKE

We watched a Japanese video at the shop beforehand and then headed to the beach. It was quite tiring, but since it was a longboard, I managed to stand up and ride the waves properly. Everyone was able to ride the waves. Paddling is extremely exhausting. They lend you rash guards and boots. They also burn the images taken at the shop onto a CD and sell them. If you like them and want to buy, it's a good idea to bring some money.

事前にお店で日本語のビデオを見て、ビーチへ。
結構疲れますが、ロングボードなので何とか立てて、ちゃんと波にも乗れました。
全員がちゃんと波に乗ってました。

First Surfing Experience 初めてのサーフィン

Reviewed by: ひとり旅

At the beginning, I was told that there would be a bit of a stronger warning for safety in the ocean, and that was indeed the case. Even though I understood, it still made me feel a bit down. Surfing was fun.

I felt uncomfortable listening to some rather rude things said to another man, perhaps because they thought he didn't understand English. I wondered if men of the sea are just that foul-mouthed!?

最初の説明で海では安全のため少し強めに注意されます。と言われてその通りでした。
わかってはいても心は少し折れました。
サーフィンは楽しかったです。

英語がわからないと思ったのか、他の男性に結構失礼なこと言ってたのが、聞いてて不愉快に感じました。海の男は口が悪いものなのか!?と思いました。

My 9-year-old child participated and had a great time. They were able to stand up on the board in just one session and now want to continue surfing. The instructor was a foreigner, so I think it would be more enjoyable if you understand some English. By the way, my child can speak, so it seems they had a lot of fun! They also said the instructor was cool.

サーフィン・レッスン アラモアナ・ビーチ・パーク 3歳から参加できる! by サーフHNL

It was fun!! 楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: yuri

At 41 years old, I tried surfing for the first time! I was really anxious about whether I could do it. The instructor was a foreigner, and right after picking me up, they asked if I could speak English, which made me even more nervous... All the explanations on the beach were in English... I honestly wondered if I would be okay.

But thinking "you learn by doing," I took the board and headed to the ocean. I was told that there were good waves suitable for beginners, and somehow, after about three tries, I managed to stand on the board. The instructor only spoke very simple Japanese, like "Paddle!" and "Are you okay?" But they made an effort to communicate using the Japanese I knew and gestures. Also, perhaps due to the tide, when I got separated from the other tour participants, they quickly came to my aid, and at one point, thinking I might be tired, they asked, "Break?" Even though we couldn't communicate in Japanese, I felt their consideration in their responses.

I didn't request a female instructor, so there were two instructors, one male and one female. (There were five participants in total, including me.) It might be tough for those who have a strong aversion to English. However, the instructors were friendly and fun, and I was able to enjoy surfing itself, so I was very satisfied with the experience.

41歳にして初めてのサーフィン! できるかどうかとても不安でした。
インストラクターの方も外人で、ピックアップ後すぐに英語が話せるかどうかを聞かれ余計不安に・・・
砂浜で説明を受けるのも全部英語・・・本当に大丈夫か?!と正直思いました。
でも「習うより慣れろ」と思いボードを持って海へ。初心者でものれそうないい波がくると教えてもらえて、私は3回ぐらいでなんとかボードの上に立つことができました。
インストラクターの方は本当にかんたんな日本語しか喋れなかったです。「漕いで!」とか「大丈夫?」とか。でも知ってる日本語やジェスチャーを使ってなんとか伝えようと努力してくださいました。また潮の流れのせいか私が他のツアー客の方とはぐれたときなどはすぐ駆けつけてくださったり、途中私が疲れてると思ったのか「休憩(する)?」と声をかけてくださったり、日本語が通じないながらも気遣いが感じられる対応でした。
私は女性を希望しなかったので、インストラクターは男女の2名でした。(ツアー客は私を含め5人でした)
英語に拒絶反応を示す方には厳しいかもしれません。
でもインストラクターの方は気さくで楽しい人たちでしたし、サーフィンそのものも楽しむことができ、私としてはとても満足のいく内容でした。

First surfing 初サーフィン

Reviewed by: サクライ

I experienced surfing for the first time in Hawaii! I had heard that the waves in Hawaii are beginner-friendly, so I thought if I was going to try it, it should be in Hawaii. I challenged myself with my brother and cousin! Besides us, there were also a Japanese parent-child pair and two groups from English-speaking countries, making a total of about 11 people.

The lesson was said to be in English, but the explanation on land was given by someone who could speak Japanese. I was able to understand the basics here. The final explanation before entering the sea was in English, but I understood it.

The trainer also spoke some simple Japanese! There were even some who could speak quite a bit of Japanese. At first, I was worried if I could do it, but once I got into the sea, I was amazed by the clarity of the water. And to my surprise, I was able to stand up on my first wave (laughs). Truly, it’s Hawaii! Truly, it’s the trainer! I had so much fun and challenged myself multiple times!

I think experiencing this in Hawaii was the right choice for me. I gained confidence from doing well, and I feel like I might get hooked on surfing! If I go to Hawaii again, I’ll definitely do it again!

初めてのサーフィンを、ハワイで体験しました!ハワイの波は初心者向けというのを昔聞いた事があったので、やるならハワイでと思っていました。弟と従姉妹と3人でチャレンジ!私達の他に日本人親子の方、
英語圏のグループの方が2組いて、全部で11人くらいいました。
英語でのレッスンと書いてありましたが、陸上での説明は日本語が話せる方がしてくれました。やり方など大体の事はここで理解出来ます。海に入る前の最終説明は英語でしたが、理解出来ました。
トレーナーさんも簡単な日本語で話してくれます!中には日本語が結構話せる方もいました。
最初は自分に出来るか不安でしたが、いざ海に入るとまず海の透明度に驚きました。そして初めての波乗りは、まさかの1発で立てました(笑)さすがハワイ!さすがトレーナーさん!と思いました。楽しくて何度も挑戦しました!
ハワイで体験した事が、私にとって正解だったと思います。上手く出来たことで自信がついたし、サーフィンにハマりそうです!またハワイに行ったらお願いします!

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン

It was fun! 楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: SAKURA

It was my first experience, and I was satisfied to be able to stand on the surfboard. Since it was a shallow area, two friends who accompanied me got injured on their feet by rocks when they fell off the board. I think the water depth varies with the tides, but I believe it's important to be cautious about injuries during the experience.

初めての体験でしたが、サーフボードに立つことができ満足です。水深が浅い場所での体験でしたので、同行した友人2人は、ボードから落ちた際、岩で足を怪我をしました。潮の満ち引きにより水深は違うと思いますが、体験の際は怪我には注意されると良いと思います。
