Corey & Reidy are Neon Night Surfers!

It’s officially summer! The countdown is over and to celebrate, Strongbow joined forces with legendary surfing filmmaker Jack McCoy, Bali Strickland and Eugene Tan to capture Australia’s largest glow in the dark surf attempt at Bondi Beach.
17 Strongbow surfers descended on Bondi Beach in custom made glow-in-the-dark surfboards and wetsuits as an official “welcome to summer” for Strongbow. Channel 10’s Bondi Rescue lifeguards, Corey Oliver and Andrew Reid, were among the surfers taking part. Hundreds of onlookers lined the beach and the Bondi Icebergs balcony to catch a glimpse of the spectacle
The team of filmmakers captured the Strongbow surfers from air, land and underwater and combined it with amazing sunrise surfing footage. The end result is a short film that Strongbow has released to signpost the first day of summer. It needs to be seen to be believed.
