The Slimes Newcastle Wave of the Winter 2023 event period kicks off on May 1st! After epic conditions over the whole Easter weekend, Autumn is in the air and hopefully that's just the first of many swells to come.
We are stoked to be running the Slimes x Modus Wave of the Winter for the third year in a row and can't wait to see who scribes their name into local surf folklore alongside Daniel 'Mullet Lord' Brown (2021) & Gus Nicholson (2022). Besides the immortal glory, we’ve got some epic prizes to give away again - details below. The champion will one again be judged by our very own 4x World Champion - Mark Richards & announced during the presentation night at the Merewether Modus brewery in September.
We will also be fundraising for local Charity Surfing the Spectrum at the presentation and there will be some amazing raffle prizes up for grabs. Adding to all that fun, the public will once again vote to anoint the Peoples Champ Award (with a hefty amount of cheating again we are sure).
