Starting in snow at Schilthorn, Switzerland before moving to dirt at the Bike Republic Sölden, Austria, Swatch Nines will tap into water with a new surf event in Waco, USA.

The year 2024 brings exciting news from Swatch Nines as the unconventional action sports series adds a new date and discipline to its event calendar. Swatch Nines Surf will make its debut in October 2024 as a double first: the first Nines surf event and the first Nines event to be held in the United States. Over the past 16 years Swatch Nines has gained an unparalleled reputation for creating unique progression sessions and playgrounds in an uncompetitive atmosphere that allows athletes to unfold their full creative powers. In 2024, the Swatch Nines brings its formula to surfing to create a one-of-a-kind session that will stand as a friendly antagonist and antithesis to the standardized competitive side of the sport. Here’s an overview of the expanded Swatch Nines 2024 schedule.
