After more than a decade away, the European Surfing Federation (ESF) is proud to announce the rebirth of the European Tour of Longboard (ETL) in 2025. A true benchmark for European longboarding in the 2000s, the circuit is returning to write a new chapter in its history and inspire a new generation of longboarders.

A major new feature of the 2025 edition will be the full integration of women's events into the circuit, affirming the ETL's commitment to promoting equality and inclusion in longboarding.

📅 Official ETL 2025 calendar:

• May 23-25 – Sagres, Portugal 🇵🇹
  • May 29–June 1 – Bouznika, Morocco 🇲🇦
• July 26–28 – Salinas, Spain 🇪🇸
  • November 21–23 – São Pedro do Estoril, Portugal 🇵🇹

Longboarding in the international spotlight

With longboarding aiming to join the Olympic Games program, it is stronger than ever.
Despite a bid supported by the International Surfing Association (ISA), longboarding was not included in the official program for the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

The return of the European Tour Longboard supports the visibility and recognition of this elegant and demanding discipline in Europe and on the world stage.

This revival aims to develop and promote the practice of longboarding on the continent, building on its heritage while injecting a modern, egalitarian, and inclusive dynamic.

“The return of the European Tour of Longboard is a true renaissance for European longboarding. We look forward to seeing the elegance, style, and passion of the best European riders, both women and men, in this new chapter.”
