Limited-Time Only (Due to Bianca's travel and coaching commitments)

Your gear strategy either prepares you to commit or leaves you guessing.

Most surfers focus on training and wave knowledge. But your equipment decisions quietly shape every moment in the water—from how confident you feel paddling out to whether you fully commit when the set arrives.

Is this also you?

You hesitate before committing but it's not always your courage.

 

You hesitate before committing, and the confidence you need is overshadowed by gear uncertainty.

You might find yourself thinking:

You second-guess your board choice mid-session.

You wonder if your fins are right for these conditions.

You feel uncertain about your wetsuit in heavier water.

You leave trips wishing you'd been better prepared.

We tend to blame skill or conditions. Often, it's clarity.

The wrong gear leaves you uncertain.
Undialed equipment creates doubt.
Lack of gear strategy burns mental energy before you catch a wave.

 
Confidence isn't about forcing it.
It's about knowing your setup will hold up when it matters.

Expert Guidance

Why Trust Bianca on Travel & Gear Strategy?

 

Two decades of dialing in equipment for high-consequence waves across the globe.


Bianca doesn't give generic gear advice. She's refined these strategies through:

Testing Gear in Consequence-Heavy Conditions

 

Where the wrong board, fin, or wetsuit isn't just uncomfortable—it's dangerous. Mavericks, Pipeline, Puerto Escondido, Waimea, Jaws—every recommendation field-tested.

Coaching Top Athletes 

 

Helped Zoe Chait prepare for the heaviest waves on the planet. Coached Lionel Conacher to dial in his setup for Sunset Beach at age 60.

Global Wave Experience

 

Surfed Hawaii, Mexico, California, Portugal—understanding how conditions, water temp, and wave type completely change gear requirements.

31+ Years

 

Surfing since age 7, competing in big waves for two decades—thousands of equipment combinations tested in real conditions, not shop recommendations.

The 1:1 Travel & Gear Consultation

This is a private 60-minute session where we dial in everything you need before your next surf trip or big session—based on you, your goals, and the waves you're going after.

 

This isn't generic advice— it's a customized strategy.

 

Bianca breaks down the same gear decision-making process she uses for big-wave sessions and shows how it applies to your specific situation—whether you're prepping for Hawaii, stepping up to bigger waves, or building confidence in your equipment choices.

 

The goal is simple:
Walk away knowing exactly what to bring—and why.

Most surfers don't struggle because they lack equipment.

They're using gear that no longer matches their skill level, body type, or wave goals

They've relied on shop advice or trends without understanding what actually works for their conditions

Especially in heavier waves—where the cost of getting it wrong isn't just discomfort, it's lost confidence and opportunity

This isn't about buying more gear.

 

It's about building the right gear strategy, for the right reasons, so surfing feels supportive instead of uncertain.
