Congratulations to our new 2026 Ethekwini Bodyboarding Association 2026 Captain Sihle Xaba and Vice Captain Nicholas Westman.

Trials done and dusted, and the Bluff did not disappoint for our last trial day. Some epic aerial manovers by our senior riders. The standard this year has moved up a notch. Well done to everyone who competed in this years trials. The date for team announcement will be confirmed soon.

What a champ. Well done

Well done Tristan Roberts. What a great competition. What an inspiration. What a champ.

A huge Happy Mother's Day to all our Moms. Your unwavering support for our riders does not go unnoticed. We appreciate everything you do for us. Have a lekker day.

The eThekwini Bodyboarding team will be representing our province at the SABA SA Champs in Cape Town this September.
We’ve got a passionate group of riders ready to compete at the highest level — but we need your help to get there.
We are currently looking for sponsors or supporters to assist with travel, accommodation, and competition costs. Any contribution, big or small, will make a real difference and directly support local talent chasing national success.
If you or your business would like to get involved, please reach out — we would love to partner with you and proudly represent your brand on a national stage. We are a registered NPA. We have just under 2000 Facebook followers and 336 Instagram followers to date. Let’s back our local riders and put Durban bodyboarding where it belongs. 🤝🔥

Don't forget trials this Sunday. Venue will be confirmed on Friday afternoon. Competition is heating up for final spots on the team.
