World Champion Surfer Shaun Tomson Teams Up with Airbnb to Offer Exclusive Olympic Perspective
From pioneering tube-riding, to winning the world title, to creating a champion mindset in the modern world, Tomson breaks down how to crack “the code” to be #1.
Santa Barbara, CA, July 15, 2021 --(PR.com)-- In just a couple of short weeks surfing will make its long-awaited debut in the Olympic Games and the sport, culture and surfing will enter a new era. To bring a unique insight and perspective to the upcoming historical moment, 1977 world champion, Shaun Tomson is teaming up with Airbnb.com to offer the Olympic Surf Experience, a series of exclusive virtual online seminars accessible from anywhere in the world.
Tomson will be breaking down the medal contenders, competitive strategies, the pressure surfing’s first Olympic athletes will face, as well as judging criteria, the history of competitive surfing and the boards the surfers will be riding.
The way that surfers travel, compete, ride waves and thrive in their personal and professional lives has changed immensely over the last year and Tomson will also be sharing how to turbo-charge one’s purpose through his transformational CODE Method derived from his critically acclaimed book, Surfer’s Code: 12 Simple Lessons for Riding Through Life.
“I am excited to share my experience of what it takes to be the best one can be. The gold medal will be won by decimal points, and I will discuss what it takes to have that infinitesimal edge to become number one in the world,” Tomson explains.
“I will talk about the physical and mental aspects of surfing, how to develop the winning mindset along with equipment, maneuvers and strategy. Hope you can join me for surfing’s first entry into the Olympics – participants will come away inspired, energized and in the flow zone.”
Olympian Surf Experience seminars hosted by Shaun Tomson will run every day from Friday, July 23 through Monday, August 1. Price per session will be $30.
