2024 Southern Surf Slam Photo Recap

Photos: Donny Searle

Atlanta, Georgia is home to a thriving/growing surf community thanks to Lake Allatoona, Lake Lanier and the many shops/marinas in the area that get people out on the water! This past weekend, we cruised up to Lake Lanier for the 2024 Southern Surf Slam! This event was jammed full with vendors, food trucks, music, and good times! We started on 6/27 with a pro/am clinic where riders got to pair up with the pros to get coached and even simulate their contest run later in the day. Things like this really help young riders not only gain confidence and learn new tricks but get more acquainted with the contest scene so they’re not so nervous going into their first competition! The next day, 6/28, we started the surf contest. With over 80 competitors that covered amateur to professional, we had a full day of shredding that led straight into day 3! Not only did we have beautiful weather and an amazing wave provided by the Nautique G23, we saw about 400-500 spectators throughout the day which made for a solid crowd to watch the shredding go down!
