FoxtelEach crew races off the beach, through the elements of the surf break and return back towards the beach, catching waves to end the race with an exciting sprint up the beachwith one person from each crew hitting a touch pad to record their place.  

This adrenalin packed surfboat racing series has been designed outside the boundaries of traditional surf life saving events specifically for the benefit of advertisers.

Note: Each team will need to allocate 100cm x 60cm space for Event principal sponsor “OCEAN THUNDER” decal to be positioned on each boat

  Television 

FOX SportsFOX SPORTS have confirmed their commitment to OCEAN THUNDER, there will be four x 1 hour programs which will include a minimum of three replays of each event.  In 2006 OCEAN THUNDER found that due to the demand for the program, considerable additional airplay was given with each of the OCEAN THUNDER programs repeated at least six times in the same month.  With premieres commencing monthly during spring/summer, this led to a considerable amount of airplay during the prime FoxSports months of late spring, early summer.  The event has all the natural characteristics in the appropriate mix to be a national success.

SKY TVSKY (NEW ZEALAND) are again expected to nationally air all four programs with ongoing repeats.  As with Fox Sports, the demand in 2006 for Ocean Thunder programs ensured each show in the 2006 series was repeated four times with further repeats planned.

 

Channel 9THE NINE NETWORK will run two distinct one hour highlights weekend programs of OCEAN THUNDER, this will be a montage of the four x 1 hour Fox Sport programs condensed into two one hour shows.
