"We've sponsored a variety of bodysurfing and handboarding events for the past few years, this will be the 3rd annual Handboard event and once again we couldn't think of a better cause than A Walk on Water to share the stoke with." Slyde founder Steve Watts

In 2017 Slyde Handboards hosted the mainland’s first ever competition devoted exclusively to the sport of handboarding. Where more than 50 contestants competed in four different divisions (groms, teens, men over 20, and women over 20).

As an offshoot of bodysurfing, the contest drew a mixed bag of lifeguards, water polo players, swimmers, and ocean lovers, and a crowd of over 100 waveriding enthusiast excitedly watched.

The good vibes of the day and the future of handboarding were best captured in legendary bodysurfer Mark Cunningham's acceptance speech. “I’m stoked to be a part of this event,” he said. “I’d like to salute all our fellow competitors and especially their parents for bringing their kids down here and getting them stoked in the shore break. Mahalo to all you moms and dads out there for turning your kids onto the ocean.”
