Whats on Fistral - Relentless Boardmasters in association with Vans - Europe's largest Surf, Skate & Music festival

Fistral Beach is known as the home of British surfing and for one week every early August the Relentless Boardmasters takes over the town. The beach front is transformed into an entertainment hub with activities including surf, BMX, skate and bikini comps, retail stalls, intimate gigs and nearly a mile of sun soaked sandy beach.

So whatever your into, there's only one seaside event that has it all.

The Relentless Boardmasters has hosted the best surfers in the world including Kelly Slater, Mick Fanning, Andy Irons and local hero Russell Winter. The waves have continued to impress the past few years allowing surfers to show their style to the masses.

Having started as Britain's first ever pro surf contest is 1983 when compact discs were just being invented, it has taken time for RBM to be conceived into what is today a 5* ASP World Qualifying Series surf event.

The main event out of the water is the Vans Summer Session, Europe’s highest profile vert skate event. Watch skaters from around the globe shredding the 40ft ramp with a mix of airs and spins.

Ones to watch out for on the half pipe are UK rippers Sam Beckett and Sam Bosworth.

The Vans Summer Sessions BMX mini ramp competition was a newcomer in 2009 and was a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Over 40 of the UK’s top riders descended upon the Beach Village on Fistral and the carnage ensued.

Highlights included a fakie double tail whip by Ben Wallace which has received over 100 000 views online!

The legendary Nuts Boardmasters Babes Bikini Comp is back this year, so prepare for the hottest ladies in the UK to grace the stage and attempt to win the hearts of our expert panel of judges for the title of 2010.
