Sabah Surfing Association is looking forward to a larger crowd this year seeing that there has been a healthy growth and awareness towards the local Sabah Surfing scene locally and internationally fuelled by the recent acknowledgement and inclusion of surfing as part of upcoming Olympic 2020 in Tokyo.
