The freestyle contest includes tandem surf riding with pooches or people along with tricks and costumes.

There will be a free agility course for dogs to try out and a children’s activity area with crafts and games along with a “BARKet Place” featuring more than 20 vendors. Surf contest entry fee is $60 for the general surf competition, and canine life vest rentals are $5. All dogs must have a life vest.
