Rules

Bylaws and Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS THE SURFIVAL LEAGUE?

  • The Surfival League is a Survivor League that follows the World Surfing League tour schedule.

WHAT ARE THE RULES?

  • Each event, pick only one (1) surfer to advance past the Round of 32.

  • If your surfer loses in the first two elimination rounds (gets 33rd or 17th place), you are eliminated for the year. If your surfer advances, you advance.

  • You can not pick the same surfer twice.

  • The competition will continue until the last man is standing and they will win $3000 and three custom shaped Panda Surfboards.

WHEN DOES THE LEAGUE START?

  • The league follows the WSL event schedule. If they cancel the tour, we will rollover your funds to the next season or refund your entry fee. Your choice.

WHY DID WE START THE SURFIVAL LEAGUE?

  • We are “Making Round One Fun Again!”

  • We think Fantasy Surfing is the worst.

  • It’s the most fun you can have watching the WSL!

HOW DO I JOIN?

  • It’s simple. Pay the $20 membership fee, create an account and pick your surfer!

HOW DO I INVITE MY FRIENDS?

  • After signing up, you will receive a referral code. For every person you refer, we will pay you $3 after the completion of the season if the season runs and is not cancelled.

WHAT IF MY SURFER GETS INJURED/BIT BY A SHARK/GETS CORONA/PULLS OUT OF COMPETITION?

  • You can switch up your surfer up until the waiting period begins. After that, tough luck!

WHAT IF THERE IS A TIE?

There are no ties!

If everybody loses in any event, except WSL Finals, all people that were in that event move on.

If there are multiple people left at WSL Finals, the remaining players must pick the WSL Champion and combined heat total of the winning heat of the final. If there are multiple winners from there, the surfers combined points throughout the year will be a tie breaker. If there’s still a tie, the person closest to the winning heat of the final wins.

HOW DO I MAKE MY PICKS?

You must log in to your Surfival Account. You then submit your surfer. It is your responsibility to make sure your pick is in before event starts. If you do not make your pick in time, you are OUT.

HOW DO I CHANGE MY PICK?

Just enter a new pick within your account.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?

Yes, this is a skill based game that is supposed to be FUN. The admins will be final authority on all decisions affecting the contest with the goal being to keep it fair and fun for all.

The prize money is not determined by the amount of players. All extra prize money will be held for future games.

This is not gambling or betting, etc.

If the tour is cancelled, we will rollover your entry to the next season, or refund.

The Surfival Gods reserve the right to have members pick 2 surfers per event if necessary towards back half of year.

During the back half of the year, when the contest field is narrowed, the Round you have to make it past might change.

Winner who are not located in continental USA or Australia must pay for board shipping (or we can offer you $1000 in lieu of the boards)
