Events Description
The Mountain Wave Classic is the only River Surfing Competition in Western Canada. Athletes will showcase their best tricks on the Mountain wave, a standalone wave in the heart of the Rockies.
This year will be the 21st edition and athletes (male and female) will compete and win the trophies of Best River Surfer 2025. This year’s edition will follow strict international judging criteria and will offer the opportunity to make River surfing known to a growing audience.
