The videos keep coming, the talent and stoke keeps growing and time is running out.
Officially there are 6 more days left for submissions then we will have a three day period open for final voting and then on the 5th November, we will record our Finals judgement show will take place with our panel of experts.
Meet the judges
For this inaugural Blast Off Video Challenge I wanted to get the best young surfers I could find to help me decide on our “Best Of” categories and our experts choice winners.
So I reached out to Jack Robinson, Vahine Fierro, Eli Hanneman, Mahina Maeda and Kyuss King, and together with myself as the chair that is our 6 person panel.
The show will be recorded on zoom and will be available to watch and we will release it for you, I think it’s going to be sick.
New sponsors on board
GoPro
So happy to welcome GoPro to our great list of sponsors. They have been been a part of our physical events in the past and the video challenge is a perfect fit for them.

Maverick Wilson @maverickwilson_ has been a great member of our Blast Off family throughout this video challenge and for years prior, making the trek from Perth to Sydney for our physical events. It has been a pleasure to watch his surfing evolve, he’s always had a great style but now there’s some serious power and aggression in his performance. You are ripping Mav and we’re sending you a prize pack from our friends at @spyoptic @spyopticaustralia
