Beach fitness.
Good people.
Unreal atmosphere.

This is what you’re training for.

📣 IMPORTANT EVENT UPDATE

We’ve made the call to postpone this weekend’s event.

With Cyclone Vaiana moving through, forecasts are showing significant swell building from Saturday.

The predicted swell surges on Mount Maunganui beach make it unsafe for event infrastructure, therefore it’s not possible for the event to go ahead this weekend.

We’ve made the call now to try to give everyone as much notice as we can - whether you’re travelling, planning, or getting ready to race.

📅 New date will be confirmed shortly

This one hits hard.
But, we go again 💛

Athletes - keep an eye on your inbox.
More information is on the way shortly

Lucky to call this place home 🌊

Next Saturday, we’ll be out here - challenging ourselves on the beach.

Let’s take care of it.
Because places like this matter 💛

Be part of it.

Send it… or finish it strong? 👀

The Red Bull warped wall is waiting at the finish.

Go for the wall or take on the lunges.
Either way, it’s about giving it a go.
