IBTV! Events have always been a vehicle for fun, and being able to integrate surfing into them is a dream come true.

We created In Bloom TV to support NZ surfers and filmmakers. It was special to bring the surfing community together to celebrate what we love most. This led to some crazy clips being screened, followed by what was probably the best In Bloom yet. One hell of a weekend!

I owe a few huge thank you’s to:

- All surfers and filmmakers who submitted clips
- @zecanz and @astrolabemount for whare and the funding for big moves
- @wheeleromanu for being uncle
- @goodsurfnow_nz for the froth and subscriptions
- @rocketoleary & @stickyjohnsonwax for the goods
- @bayboardriders for the backing
- @matt_hewitt & @billystairmand for providing insights
- @wee_haan for being a tech lord
- @isaac_chaddy for the film inspo
- @baile.design for being a guru
- @altopro.am for being core
- And, of course, the lords behind @inbloomfest_nz

The forecast is looking fun for next year….

Long live In Bloom / TV!!!
