It will kick off in August 2024 and conclude with the Shaw and Partners Doctor event at the end of November. We believe this compacted timeline will offer competitors greater ease in planning their year and staying updated on their overall rankings.

The Australian Ocean Racing Series (AORS) is a national ocean racing series attracting competitors across a number of ocean racing disciplines including Ocean skis, Surf skis, Stand Up Paddleboards, Prone Paddleboards and Outrigger Canoes.
 

The AORS series will showcase the largest and most successful ocean racing events in the country, amongst them the iconic Doctor, the 20 Beaches Ocean Classic and the Manly Wharf Bridge to Beach to name a few.

The results of AORS are to be used to determine the Australian Championships for Ocean Racing, with the winners of the AORS being recognised as the National Champions each year.
