No Matter Your Starting Point, You Will Learn How To Improve & Restore Dynamic Flexibility… Every Joint, Every Muscle, Key Movement Areas, Full Body Movement Sequences, and Tissue Release to Help Eliminate Pain and Stiffness.
Fundamental Surf Stretches
Essential moves to release the tight spots—freeing up joints and muscles that limit fluid, powerful surfing.
After over a decade coaching surfers, these are the go-to moves I teach again and again. Learn how to unlock tight hips, free up your spine, and loosen stiff shoulders. You’ll come back to these stretches for life.
Research-Based Tissue Release
Backed by science and anatomy insight—improve movement, joint health, and recovery, especially on surf trips.
A tennis ball or foam roller can work wonders—if you know the right techniques. On a surf trip, it might be the most valuable thing you pack. Learn proven methods to release tight muscles, boost mobility, and speed up recovery.
Postural Improvement
Give your hips and spine the care they need—undo the damage from too much desk time and restore your posture and flexibility.
The Paddling Archetype program teaches key stretches and techniques to realign your spine, unlock your hips, and release the tension that builds from long hours at a desk.
Hip Flexibility
Tin-man hips holding you back? Unlock your range and ditch the poo-man stance—fluid hips mean better surfing.
In these stretch routines, you’ll focus on the most effective moves to restore hip mobility and support long-term joint health. Better-moving hips = better surfing.
Improved Flexibility & Strength
Surfing demands control, not just movement. This program builds true mobility—strength through range—for better performance in the water.
Flexibility is passive and weak—it’s what happens when someone else moves you. Mobility is different. If you can pull your shin to your face, that’s strength in motion. And as a surfer, that kind of control is key to staying durable. This program builds mobility—strong, usable range of motion—and that’s what really matters.

FREE BONUS #1
FOUNDATION TRAINING
Do you have a spine? Hips? Surf? Then you need Foundation Training (FT). Surfers use FT to ease back pain, build core strength, and boost performance. A strong spine = a better life. This program teaches the essentials to keep your back pain-free and posture solid. Your spine will thank you. Value: $99.
FREE BONUS #2
PRE-SURF WARMUP ROUTINES
A few toe touches and arm swings? Lame. If you’re over 30, your body—and your surfing—need more. Most surfers skip warmups out of embarrassment or cluelessness. Time to grow up and stop caring what others think. With these routines, they’ll be watching you for tips. This program gives you the exact warmups you need—from quick beach moves to full paddle-out preps—so you hit that first wave feeling fast, loose, and ready. A few key movements, the right focus, and boom—you’re feeling like a grom again. Value: $99.
FREE BONUS #3
Dynamic Flow Routines
Fluid strength—that’s what surfers really want. Supple power. Movement like water. Groovy, right? If you’ve heard of the Surf Athlete Program, you know it’s legit. One of the best parts? The Dynamic Flow Routines—like yoga, but built for surf strength, especially in the hips and core. I want you to have them. Use them. They’ll recharge your body and your surfing—and they’re included with the full Stretches for Surfers program. Stuck at a desk all day? Do one of these flows. You’ll feel mobile, strong, and alive. Value: $99.
!WATCH THIS!
I want you to see this Full Surf-Stretching Routine from the program.
This is just one of MANY Routines found within the full program, all specifically designed to help you move into the positions and postures required for higher level surfing. Compression is your ability to crouch into a barrel, lift the legs up for a floater, or slide your legs underneath you for a flawless pop up. This stretch routine is focused on your ability to be a spring, compress easily, and surf fluidly. You’ll immediately see why Stretches for Surfers is the Ultimate Stretching & Flexibility program created specifically for surfers.

MEET THE GUY WHO’S TRYING TO
HELP YOUR SURFING…
Cris Mills
On a daily basis I help people (predominantly surfers) improve performance, ranging from nutrition, to rehab, and sport specific training.
I know what a surfer needs to work on in order to maintain their interaction with the ocean (surfing). Not only from a personal standpoint, of being a freakish surf-addict who has an intention to keep charging, while also dealing with my own laundry list of injuries, but also having worked with countless surfers from rehab to skill development.
The intention is to keep surfing. In order to do that an individual’s perspective must shift to a focus on health and longevity. Your body is the vehicle through which you interact with the ocean. Keep yourself capable, and invest in your body, it’s movement capacity, it’s joint health, and it’s durability.

The older I get the more care I need for my body. This stretching helps to keep me surfing into my late 40’s and hopefully make surfing in my 50’s still enjoyable and less injuries.

I’m a Physiotherapist who prescribes stretching programs to patients every day. This program has changed the the way I stretch and how I treat. Stretching under load and in multiple planes as Cris describes is significantly more effective than standard passive stretching.

Good solid program that’s suitable for all levels. All movements/stretches broken down well to give a good understanding of application and benefits including progressions and regression for those that require it. Has improved my overall conditioning and range of motion, which has not only benefited my surfing but overall health and everyday life.

I live in the city, so if I want to surf, I need to drive at least 2-3 hrs, that means that I cant surf everyday, and just on weekends. Saying that, keep in shape during the week is key for a good performance. This program has been really useful to complement the lack of surf hours and avoid loosing endurance. Also, this program is not only about working out, but the complete mindset of surf, telling you things like ´why we have to do certain exercise to improve pop up or bottom turn, etc´, so you start thinking about your future movements for the next session while you´re working out. Thanks Cris.
