The Irukandjis team secured the overall Bronze at the event in El Salvador. Finals Day provided ideal conditions, with some of the world’s best surfers over 40 competing for the top honours.
Former CT surfer and World Title runner-up Serena Brooke (Noosa Heads, QLD) scored an early 7.33 and a late 6.07 to claim Silver in the Women’s Masters (over 40) Final.
“El Salvador has been amazing,” Brooke said. “I came up just short of the Gold with a Silver Medal but to represent Australia and surf in a team was awesome as this is my first ISA titles. I will definitely be back for more and looking to go that one spot better next time.
“The Irukandjis Aussie team support has been epic and to get third out of 28 countries as a team was an awesome effort. Looking forward to the next one.”

About the ISA World Masters Surfing Championship
The ISA World Masters Surfing Championship returns after a decade-long hiatus, hosted at Surf City El Salvador’s iconic El Sunzal point-break. This prestigious event features surfers aged 40+ across three divisions: 40-49, 50-59, and 60+. Notable past champions include seven-time WSL Champion Layne Beachley. The WMSC has been held six times between 2007 and 2013.
“The ISA’s decision to revive the World Masters Surfing Championship after more than a decade is thrilling,” Luke Madden, Surfing Australia’s Chief of Sport – Events, Participation & Community said. “Australia has an incredible depth of talent in the Masters category, largely due to our strong boardrider clubs. This event is a crucial pathway for our Australian Titles athletes, providing them a chance to compete on the world stage.”
