JAN Juc local and surfer Tully Wylie is on a mission to qualify for the World Tour in 2026 and is calling on the community to help him get there.<\/p>\n

For the past three years, Wylie has been creating short films that document his travels, and raffling off a range of prizes and donations to help ease the financial pressure of competing internationally.<\/p>\n

This year, his annual fundraising event is returning, taking place at Bird Rock this Saturday (August 9) where he will debut his new film and speak with James Miles and Cahill Bell-Warren from the Lipped Podcast.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the third year I\u2019ve done this and basically, just with the amount of travelling I\u2019m doing for competing, it\u2019s really hard to afford it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Wylie said it costs about $60,000 a year to compete at an elite level, with the funds raised at Saturday\u2019s event helping to make it all possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt goes towards my flights, event entries, coaching, training \u2013 travel costs is the biggest one, our flights for the year are ridiculously expensive because we\u2019re literally doing laps of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wylie said he doesn\u2019t have a specific fundraising goal, but is grateful for any support people are willing give.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a bit of a challenging thing for me to accept doing, because I don\u2019t really love asking for money,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve had so many close friends recommend me to do something like this and the community really gets around it.\u201d<\/p>\n
