Twenty Boardriding Clubs from all over Sydney, Wollongong, Central Coast, and South Coast have entered teams in this weekend’s CARVE EYEWEAR MEN’S SURFTAG at Queenscliff Beach, Sydney. North Narrabeen Boardriders will go into the event as the defending Men’s Surftag champions and will be looking to continue their early success in this year’s Surftag Series with their Under 14’s team winning the GYG Grommets Surftag last month. 

North Narrabeen have named a six-man squad that includes Challenger Series surfers Jordy Lawler and Dylan Moffat as well as Davey Cathels, Jamie Thomson, Kai Warner, and Jack Bannister.
