The level of entries into our shorts this year was simply incredible. The time spent by surfers & videographers on the 14 edits we showcased on the big screen was the highest standard we’ve seen in our six years.

Surf edits are always subjective and we’re stoked that in this case, the legend that is Easkey Britton came out on top after an incredible project with Andrew Kainader.

A massive thanks to every videographer and surfer who took time to surf and create an edit for the festival. We understand that without your hard work and dedication this element of the festival could not work.

Keep pushing boundaries, keep doing what you’re doing ✌️
