The Nikon Surf Photo and Video of the Year awards showcase some of the best on the water and behind the lens. It’s a celebration of “the breathtaking stories captured by our talented surf photographers and videographers.”

A panel of 10 high-profile judges including seven-time World Surfing Champion, Stephanie Gilmore, were put to the test to decide which of these visually stunning mid-action photographs topped the lot.

Chris Mater, CEO, Surfing Australia said, “The Awards are a hugely important event on our calendar because they give the Australian surfing community a chance to honour our best, whether it be in the water competing or behind a lens. Inducting our latest Hall of Fame member is always a massive moment we cherish.”
