Jim Beam Surf Tag Announces Its Schedule
July 17, 2009
PRESS RELEASE

Jim Beam Surftag U.S.- a four event surf club/team shortboard competition - will launch its inaugural season in the U.S. with a demonstration at the Malibu Surf Classic, September 12 in Malibu.

"We're excited to have Jim Beam support surfing and California's
surfing clubs, and proud to partner with them for our 2009 Malibu Surf Association (MSA) Classic invitational contest. We're looking forward to a great Surftag event at the MSA Classic and to competing in the series." -- Michael Blum, MSA President

Following the exhibition at the Malibu Surf Classic, the Surftag schedule will hit Manhattan Beach on September 19 and then travel to Ventura on September 26. Oceanside will host a contest on October 11 with the finals taking place November 13-14 in Huntington Beach, CA.

Extremely popular in Australia, Jim Beam Surftag features boardriding clubs and teams representing specific breaks competing in a unique tag team format. Each team is represented by five contestants. In relay style each surfer catches three waves and then returns to the beach to tag their team's next participant.

A $5,000 prize purse will be offered at each of the first three events and $10,000 will be offered for the final contest. Up to 16 teams will participate in each event and registration opens later this summer.
