Winner take all!
Remember how surf fans used to win Surfer or the WSL fantasy surf leagues and then get stiffed of prizes?
Three years back, we interviewed Shane Starling, a forty-eight-year-old cycling enthusiast, who picked ten of the eleven event winners that year and his victory came and went entirely unremarked and unacknowledged by the WSL.
As for Surfer’s fantasy league, Starling described it as a “dead platform, really.”
Apart from that the rules were confusing and the game play was boring. Bleak as hell.
Enter, The Surfival League.

We simplified and in the BeachGrit way, made a fantasy surfer game that was simple and anti-depressive!
Rules?
You pick one surfer each contest.
They have to make it past the Round of 32.
If they advance, you advance.
We run until the last man in surfing and a Surfival Champion is crowned.
This is our third year in the biz.
The first year, a handyman from Colorado won a thousand bucks (world champ CJ Hobgood placed second).
Last year, a butcher from Bondi won three-gees and a three-board quiver from PANDA surfboards.
This year?
Winner gets $5000 and a three-board PANDA quiver.
There’s less than one week to sign-up for The Surfival League.

Signed up and picked Slater like I guess 70 % of others will do?
Yeah, me too!
Cute idea, why don’t you get some trading cards also with your favorite surfers on them.
You mean blowup dolls?

I have fantasies but none involve betting on surfing.
Or any other sport.
