The Backdoor GromBash takes place from the 18 – 19 April and plays host to over 100 junior surfers from around the country.
The event is now in to its third year and looks set to score more pumping Raglan waves this weekend with a clean swell arriving for the final day of the event. Surfers enter divisions from Under 14 through to Under 20 for boys and girls with some top talent in action.
Keep an eye out for the likes of Elliot Paerata – Reid of Piha and Kehu Butler of Mount Maunganui as they take on a swarm of other groms including Raglan’s up and coming youngsters.
Action takes place from 8am – 5pm daily at Manu Bay with heaps of activities for everyone including the portable skate park features that will be located in the Manu Bay car park.
