Meet Our Team
We are passionate about creating surfers who love surfing.
Lorin Anderson
Head Coach & Founder
Lorin Anderson is a devoted husband, father of four, and the proud captain of Team Stoke at All Day Surf.
Raised on the Central Coast, he has more than 30 years of hands-on surfing experience and an authentic love for the ocean that informs everything he does. Before dedicating himself to surf coaching, Lorin spent five years as a certified personal trainer — a background that sharpens his approach to movement, progression, and building confidence in students at every level. He has also taught surf lessons in Hawaii, bringing exposure to world-class waves and coaching environments.
Known for his calm leadership, warm sense of humor, and contagious stoke, Lorin creates lessons that are both fun and results-driven. He takes pride in helping families, young surfers, and aspiring competitors find their rhythm in the water, grow their confidence, and develop a lifelong respect for the ocean. Lorin is CPR and First Aid certified.

For over 10 years, Sam has been teaching surf lessons, specializing in working with groups, children, and individuals with disabilities. His patient, inclusive approach helps people of all backgrounds feel confident and safe in the water. He is CPR and First Aid certified and ready to be there for you and your family in the water!
Our Mission
We strive to bring joy and life to our community through surfing and spreading the stoke.
Our team has experience at all levels.
Our team's surf experience extends well beyond the Central Coast. Years of travel to breaks across California, Mexico, and the South Pacific have deepened our understanding of diverse swell, tide, and wind patterns, and exposed us to varied board shapes and coaching methods. Those travels inform our adaptive coaching approach — whether adjusting technique for punchy beach breaks, long point waves, or mellow reef breaks — so students learn skills that transfer to any lineup.
