PROGRAMS

Community Shaping Lessons

We offer group and individual shaping lessons! Come by alone, or bring a friend or family member to make a board or two together! Every board you make, helps make a board for a grom in need!

Kook Camp

We're all kooks here! Kook Camps are awesome camps where we partner with locals to teach youth to make their own board, surf, have a tonne of fun doing rad activities, and talk story (get real) together.

Kook Camp's teach youth one part of the surfboard building process each day, combined with one spiritual life lesson. For example: on day one youth learn to design and plan out their own board; they also learn that they they are designed by God and he has a plan for them!

Contact us to learn more about booking a Kook Kamp for youth in your community!

Sponsorships

Build a Board Sponsorship

We partner with people like you to make boards for groms who need one! You can help us design and even shape a board for a grom!

Busted Board Sponsorship

Wanna sponsor a grom, but don't have the cash? Give us your old board, we'll fix it up, sell it, donate it, or use it to help a grom get out in the water! You can still help with design, repair, and building! We can also refurbish old boards to make them new for a grom!

Grom Sponsorship

Groms can apply, or be nominated to get sponsored by TPB. Sponsored Groms can get stickers, merch, mentorship, gear, coaching, free boards, and more! You can sponsor a Grom by covering or helping to cover these costs!

Mentorship

Relational Mentorship

Mentors reach out to groms (youth) where they're t to surf, hang out, talk story, and chill! Mentors walk alongside youth becoming family to eachother.

The Shaping Bay

The Shaping Bay is a gathering space/time for youth and mentors to meet and apply lessons of surfboard shaping to our own lives: learning to shape both boards and lives (Often combined with shaping lessons, but not necessarily).

Outreach

Local Outreach

Our outreach encompasses a broad range of activity from volunteering/partnering with schools and community organizations, to intentionally reaching out to youth in everyday life at the skatepark, or their homes. It is designed to fill the gaps of the rest of our programs, and can include volunteering with other organizations, or holding events like surfing days/lessons, beach clean-ups, fundraisers, etc.

Foreign Outreach

We seek to partner with locals in areas we are not based in order to offer support, programs, and more. We offer long term relationships with regular short term operations. Our intent in this is primarily to support locals who want to start their own TPB location in their community, with a secondary purpose of supporting communities in any way they request.

*Foreign* Outreach refers to anything not local (outside of state/region, or nation)
