Future Sailors Tour

rtfuture_05_291166

The Riptide Future Sailors Tour was an idea hatched with a few simple goals in mind. First and foremost we wanted to party our way around the country to celebrate Riptide’s 20th anniversary. But we also wanted to get back to the roots a little, meet a whole bunch of local bodyboarders along the way and share the DVD – and some of the riders that starred in it – with ’em.

And so with some mad car support from Renault and some mad beer support from Coopers, we flew to Adelaide and drove our way back across the country to the Gold Coast, premiering with our projector and speakers along the way.

Click on the galleries below for a bit more about each of the eight stops and some visual gold from along the way (thanks to our main man behind the lens, Mr Trent Mitchell).
