Frothing fun at festival

The Noosa Festival of Surfing kicked off last weekend with a howling good time had by some of its first wave riders at the Vetshop Australia dog surfing competition.

While a sunny day and light waves were a perfect combination for the event other events have shifted to Noosa River mouth or eastern beaches to make the best of conditions.

The festival continues this weekend with the Vissla Twin Fin paying homage to the shapers of yesteryear and some never before seen footage from the Surf Film Archive to be shown at The J Theatre. For more information visit noosafestivalofsurfing.com
