Surf’s up in Flagler Beach this weekend! The 24th Annual Tommy Tant Memorial Surf Classic brings surfers, families and spectators together October 23–25 for three days of exciting competition, community spirit and a wonderful cause. Held in memory of beloved local surfer Tommy Tant, who passed away at just 24, this East Coast surfing tradition has raised more than $200,000 over the years to support scholarships, local families and charitable causes. From talented surfers riding the waves to Saturday’s aerial surfing exhibition and Sunday’s emotional memorial paddle-out, it’s a weekend that celebrates much more than surfing. And best of all, spectators are welcome and admission is free!

💥 💥 OCTOBER 23-25 💥 💥
Here’s some clips of the Flagler crew getting ready for the Tommy Tant Surf Classic 💪🏼

One of the longest-standing surf traditions in Florida—a premier community surf contest on the East Coast

In the wake of loss, a local high school marketing class proposed a memorial surf contest—and from that grief, a lasting tradition was born. Every fall, “The Tommy” draws surfers, families, and spectators to Flagler Beach for the long-awaited three-day gathering. This year will be 24 years in the making.

When your profession is based on nature and the conditions suddenly line up, you have to act fast.

What all does it take to chase a big swell on the other side of the world? Completing a mental checklist of head protection, flotation support, and more… navigating planes, trains, and automobiles… Coordinating with people in multiple countries…

And you haven’t even paddled out yet!

So much precedes those iconic moments in the water—with no guarantee that moment will happen at all.

But Robbie wasn’t going to miss this rare opportunity at Cloudbreak. Hear some of his process in the hours leading up to his departure for a trip supported by our Fellows Program.

And stay tuned because he’s back with stories to share!

A little slice of Flagler Beach in pen and ink.
A loose, hand-drawn sketch of the local Craeft Surf Studio, capturing some of the imperfections, character, palms, weathered wood and laid-back coastal personality that make our little beach town what it is. I wanted this one to feel less like an architectural rendering and more like a moment you might notice while wandering around Flagler with a sketchbook in your hand.

This is what we’ve been waiting for. Why we started the Fellows Program. So that in moments like this, when a swell of this magnitude rises, we can see him go.

The chance came fast. A long-period swell is filling in over one of the heaviest, fastest reefs on the planet, and Robbie’s never surfed it. It’s terrifying. It’s a lot to take on.

But when all the conditions line up, Cloudbreak produces culture-shaping moments. Is it even humanly possible to paddle into these waves?

With our collective support through the @tommytant Fellows grant, we get to help position one of our best hometown athletes to find out.

We’re rooting for you, Robbie! And no matter the outcome, you inspire us.

This is part one: the call. Next, everything it takes to get there.

We agree with Ryan—we have the best surf community here in Flagler Beach. Where else can a community say that they help fund a local athlete’s career? And then get to premiere his film just across from the break where he grew up learning to surf with us.

Come out TONIGHT to see Ryan Huckabee’s latest project and celebrate together the incredible talent that our town produces.

We’re shutting down the parking lot. Setting up live music. Blowing up the big screen. Let’s pack it out!

Doors open at 7:00 pm
