Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Tracks team will once again be competing in the SurfAid Cup held at Bondi Beach on Friday 9 May. To support our fundraising efforts we will be hosting an evening of live music by Ethan Eshuys from 6.30pm on Thursday 8 May at the Curly Lewis Bar in Bondi.

There will be a raffle for a Tracks pack giveaway and $1 from every beer will be donated to SurfAid.

The first SurfAid Cup was held in Manly in 2011 and the event series has now grown globally to include six events in Australia and the US.

During this year’s event, teams of four surfers will be joined a pro of their choosing from an impressive line-up as they battle it out for two awards: Fundraising champions and surfing champions.

Previous editions of the comp have been supported by the likes of Tom Carroll, Shane Dorian, Occy, Laura Enever, Taj Burrow and more.

In a relay style event, each surfer is to catch two waves before returning to tag their team mate in.

SurfAid’s geographical focus is on the heartlands of surfing where few visitors but surfers go, making their work unique. They specialise in working in very isolated villages where the maternal and child mortality rates are some of the highest in the world.

With your support, we can give families the best chance of getting ahead by providing access to healthcare, clean water and sanitation and improved nutrition.

Seven free surfers embark on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before.

Seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before.

Not that long ago, in an island chain far, far away, seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before. Equipped with an array of surfboards, a packet of crayons and two ukuleles, their chances of success were slim. In pursuit of perfection, they were forced to navigate under the radar of a fleet of imperial boat charters. Despite numerous obstacles, the rebel alliance of wave-riding beatniks continued to make Galactik Tracks into a new surfing cosmos; their search for a Nirvana reaching its climax when they arrived at… The Island of Nowhere.

STARRING: DAVE RASTOVICH

The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home on the Far North Coast of NSW.

Gathering is a short film from independent filmmaker Nathan Oldfield, the creator of the award-winning left of centre surf films Lines From a Poem, Seaworthy and The Heart & The Sea. The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home in the sacred playgrounds of the Far North Coast of New South Wales. The film explores Rastovich’s ideas around how the tension between the industrial and the natural in the surfing world unfolds in that place. Ultimately, Gathering celebrates how diversity and difference in ecosystems, relationships and surfing contribute to the preciousness of life. Gathering is easy on the eyes and ears and Tracks Magazine is proud to present it to you. Nathan Oldfield is a maverick, a filmmaker who wants a surf movie to say something important, to move us and make us grateful for the sea around us and the life within us. His films are quiet, beautiful and brimming with sacred purpose. Tim Winton, Acclaimed Australian Novelist
