CALLING ALL GOOD~TIMERS!!!This super fun SURFING EVENT celebrates the re-surfacing of classic Vintage Twin-fin surfboards from the late seventies and eighties and offers competing surfers a unique opportunity to ride them..then party up back at the Oakura Boardriders Club.
Nothing serious! This is a ‘funtest’ for guys and girls where
DRESS UP IS COMPULSORY!
This year's dress-up theme is VINTAGE SURF - BUT with an ''APOCALYPSE HORROR'' spin..so bring ya scare for the shredding...
TnT serves a classic day at the beach with ENTERTAINING SURFING...hearty laughs, cold drinks, music and epic surfboards on show!
The event is mobile! Depending on surf conditions we will aim to make a call the day before. Watch for updates on event.

Auckland band ‘THE STEELE TAYLORS’ will be belting out two 1 hour sets of epic Punk Rock cover ampers!
Following with Dj 'MAD WAX' who will send us bumping deeper into the eve with a frothy mix of house-rollers (with a haunted 80s tweak on it!)
