State’s Best Longboarders Selected for National Championship Campaign

Victoria has unveiled a talented and experienced team set to compete at the 2026 Australian Longboard Titles, with the state’s best longboarders preparing to travel north to Tweed Heads, New South Wales, to contest national honours at the Thermos Australian Longboard Titles.

The prestigious event will bring together Australia’s leading longboard athletes across junior, open and masters divisions, with Team Victoria aiming to continue its proud tradition of strong performances on the national stage.

The Victorian team features an exciting mix of emerging talent and seasoned competitors, highlighted by rising stars Delilah Chisholm and Willa Webb in the Under 18 Junior Women’s division, alongside a powerful Open Men’s contingent featuring Sam Dunton, Ben Considine, Tasman Dunton and Will Cousins.

The Open Women’s division boasts an equally impressive lineup, with Rori Reyntjes, Angela King, Jaz Felsinger and Natalia Milosz-Piekarska set to wear the Victorian colours.

Experience will be one of Victoria’s greatest strengths throughout the Masters divisions, with multiple athletes competing across more than one age category. Greg Brown (Lorne) and Liam McCafferty headline a team filled with accomplished competitors who continue to demonstrate the depth of longboarding talent across the state.

Surfing Victoria CEO Adam Robertson said the team represents the strength and diversity of Victoria’s longboarding community.

“Every athlete selected has earned their place through outstanding performances and commitment throughout the year at State Titles. It’s fantastic to see such a balanced team featuring young surfers alongside some of Australia’s most experienced longboard competitors.”

“The Australian Longboard Titles are always one of the highlights of the competitive calendar. We’re proud to send such a strong team to represent Victoria and look forward to watching them perform on the national stage.”

The Australian Longboard Titles provide athletes with the opportunity to compete for Australian championship titles while celebrating the culture and tradition of longboard surfing.

The Thermos Australian Longboard Titles is held on the Tweed Coast from July 24 – 30, 2026
