Saturday • 1–3pm • Te Kohanga

Bring the whole whānau down for a super fun afternoon at Te Kohanga! Our Pushy Parents event is all about families spending time together, encouraging kids in the water, and sharing some laughs along the way.

Whether your little ones are just starting out or already love the waves, parents and caregivers can jump in, cheer them on, and enjoy the beach vibe together. No pressure, no competition — just good fun, supportive energy, and a great chance to connect with other families in the community.

What to expect:

🌊 Kids learning and playing in the surf
🏄‍♀️ Parents helping, pushing boards, and having a blast
🤝 A chance to meet other local families
☀️ A colourful, cheerful afternoon at the beach

Come along, bring your boards, towels, snacks, and enthusiasm — let’s enjoy the waves together!

🌊 Indi Lee Ruddell – 2025 Season Recap 🌊

What. A. Year. 💥 From grom comps to open divisions, Indi’s been charging hard and it’s showing in her results! Every event, every wave — she’s been all in. 💪

🥈 2nd – U16 Girls | Billabong Grom Series Event 1
🥈 2nd – U16 Girls | Billabong Grom Series Event 2
➡️ 2nd Overall | Billabong Grom Series, January- February

🥈 2nd – Sequence Surf Shop Gisborne Junior Pro, May

🥈 2nd – Open Women’s | Backdoor King & Queen of the Point, June

🥉 3rd – U16 Girls | National Scholastics, October

The King & Queen of the Point was definitely Indi’s highlight this year — not just for the podium finish, but for the grit behind it. 🙌
She tore her MCL during the second round of the event, yet still powered through to take 2nd behind Saffi Vette. True courage and determination right there. 💥
The injury sidelined her for eight long weeks, but her comeback showed just how much fire she’s got. 🔥

A season of heart, consistency, and growth — Indi’s proving she’s got what it takes to rise to the top. 🌟

Bring on 2026 — the best is yet to come! 🤙🏄‍♀️💫
