Compared to the last year’s event, which had been a great success, this year, there are more participants. The children’s skills had improved significantly. Some children like Selva, Praveen and Subbu, who had won the event last year, went on to participate in the national-level event at the Covelong Point Surf Festival in Tamil Nadu and performed well in the event.

The Surfing Swami Foundation is striving to introduce surfing and other water sports to children and improve the surfing scene in India.

“We have more than 25 children aged between 7 and 15 years coming in from different surf clubs in Mulki, Panambur, Bengre and Tannirbhavi,” said a press release from Yathish Baikampady of Panambur Beach Development Project.
