“Świetny instruktor Jurek. Już po pierwszej lekcji wszyscy stawaliśmy na desce (dzieci 13 i 15 lat). Instruktor przełożył nam lekcję ze względu na zbyt duże fale jak na pierwszą lekcję, za co jestem mu niezmiernie wdzięczny. bezpieczeństwo przede wszystkim a nie ciśnienie na zyski. Brawo. Samo biuro też utrzymane w dużym pożądanie. Polecam i jeszcze raz dziękuję. Do zobaczenia!”
