A JOINT birthday party is being held to mark a 140-year milestone success in the Cornish surfing world on Saturday, October 12.

Carve Magazine, Newquay Boardriders, Lusty Glaze Beach and Sharp’s Brewing are celebrating by staging the Carve X Sharp’s Offshore Pilsner Tag Team Surf Competition at Lusty Glaze from 2pm.

Competitive teams travelling from across Cornwall will be taking part.

The joint birthday social kicks off with the surf comp prize giving followed by DJs Pete Isaac of Jelly Jazz and Bude’s B Side Social Club taking to the decks at 6pm.

Partygoers can enjoy a mix of funk, soul, breaks, and beats, alongside the stone baked pizzas and hot and cold drinks that will be available all day and night for those on the beach.

Sharp's Brewing Co will be delivering award-winning beers as prizes on the day, and the contest and Birthday Social are a rare opportunity for the Cornish surf community to come together and celebrate.

Sharp’s Brewing Co and Carve are celebrating their 30th birthdays this year whilst its Newquay Boardriders’ 55th year and the 25th for the team at Lusty Glaze Beach.

Steve England, the editor of Carve Magazine, said: “We can hardly believe it’s been 30 years that we’ve been producing and printing the mag. Over those three decades we’ve published 224 editions and also a whole load of books. Sometimes you do need to stand back and consider all the work, faith and investment that’s gone into all that – and to take time to celebrate. When we heard it was also Sharp’s 30th celebratory year, it just became the no-brainer thing to get us all together on one of the Newquay beaches for a surf contest. Then we found out about the Lusty Glaze and Newquay Boardriders’ anniversaries too and it just all chimed.”

Nick White, the brand activation manager, at Sharp’s Brewing Co, said: “We’ve loved working in partnership with Carve, and its sister magazine SurfGirl, over the decades and we’ve got the same love for what we do in common, so it just made perfect sense to come together with the Cornish surf community on one of our favourite beaches – Lusty Glaze.

“We are stoked that the crew at Lusty Glaze Beach suggested hosting an event to celebrate our birthdays in style. It’s going to be a super-fun contest with Newquay Boardriders and an epic night with our friends from B Side Social Club and Pete from Jelly Jazz providing the beats.”
