Storm Rider

Green light for March 20th for the craziest competition ever held in Israel - the 3-Star PWA Storm Rider

The STORM RIDER is back with a solid forecast consisting of 30 knot winds and chunky 3 metre waves. 

After the qualifiers, the 20 best sailors in Israel—the Kings of the Storms—have advanced to the main competition this Thursday!

Check out the names:

Israel’s Olympic sailors:

Shahar Zubari

Yoav Cohen

Yoav Omer

And none other than gold medalist Tom Reuveni


And of course, past Storm Rider champions:

Eyal Shelef

Arnon Dagan (Future Fly)

These legends are all past Storm Rider champions and have what it takes to win again!

A big disappointment:

The reigning Storm Rider champion, Tomer Shamgar, has suffered a leg injury and will have to miss the competition.

Huge jumps and wave riding—that’s the name of the game!

Head judge Ziv Dori will give the opening signal at 9:00 AM (subject to conditions).

The competition is open to the public

📍 Location: The new and stunning surf club "Gesher Allenby" at Bat Galim Beach.
