Organizations and companies submitted a written application and a video which will be judged by surfing legends and industry experts and leaders, including:

• Debbie Beacham
• Izzy Tihanyi
• Brandon Lowery

The judges are reviewing all applications and will announce winners Tuesday afternoon at Surf Park Summit.
