Showcasing the Biggest Tag Team Surfing Series in Australia
Founded in 2001 by Steve Harrison, SURFTAG is a tag team surfing series that crowns Australia’s No.1 Boardriding Club.
Starting with the Men’s Division in 2001 and adding Women in 2008, the 2022 SURFTAG SERIES saw Grommets (Under 14’s), Juniors (Under 18’s) and Masters (Over 40’s) Divisions added to the SERIES with the overall SURFTAG SERIES Champions being determined by ratings points from each Division.
Also described as a surfing relay, the SURFTAG Format creates pressure surfing with wave selection and time management paramount, resulting in clutch finishes with surfers sprinting up the beach to beat the countdown clock.
SURFTAG is all about team work and representing your local community.
