Red Bull Surf & Rescue is a unique multi-discipline lifeguard competition held in Atlantic City on the seaside community on Absecon Island in New Jersey. The competition is in its third year this July 16th.
40 teams will compete in a 4-round elimination format incorporating the classic lifesaving disciplines of ocean swimming, prone paddling, rowing and the Red Bull Rescue Relay to determine the best beach patrol on the East Coast.
Race director Bruckner Chase explains, “The Red Bull Rescue Relay was created to bring a team rescue scenario into the event that showcases disciplines that are part of the daily lives of lifeguards on the beach.”
