History
The club was founded at the end of February 2024 with the aim of building a community united by a passion for surfing and, more broadly, water sports. Its main goal has always been to provide a space where students can unwind, stay active, and enjoy the beauty of the lake and the many activities it offers, all while connecting and bonding with one another.
The club was established—and continues to thrive—thanks to the incredible dedication of its members and committee. It is their enthusiasm and support that have shaped the club into what it is today.
Year 2024:
Nino Berger, Paola Biocchi, Nouchine Bouchiat, Alban Bréart, Louma Cerutti, Jean-Sébastien Delineau, Victoria De Groote, Julien Drouet, Yona Farina, Kilian Pouderoux, Zoe Monnard, Enzo Pinat, Pedro Pinot, Jules Pirot, Leo Popper, Alice Potter, Victor Peucelle, Camille Velin and Paul Vannoye
History Events
We strive to offer three sports activities per week from the end of March to the beginning of July, and then again from the beginning of September to mid-November. In addition to these regular sessions, we also aim to organize larger events.
Some of these included:

To introduce ourselves, we organized a discovery session in the heart of campus, where people could try surfskating and enjoy delicious Tony Mate.
12 April 2024: Apéro Bowl – Vidy
This was our first major event, with over 100 participants. In the afternoon, attendees took surfskate lessons and shredded with Red Bulls, followed by an apéro with free beers and great music.

Our first-ever water activity! Despite the 12°C water, our members weren’t discouraged and spent more than four hours foil surfing.
