Piha s Keyhole Boardriders claimed the 2021 Hurley national club championships at Whangamatā last weekend.
They edged out the local Whangamata Boardriders Club after a close battle across the clubs, with Keyhole requiring a win in the final tag team event to secure the overall title.
Two men, one woman, one junior (under 18) and one senior (over 40) make up each team and the relay-styled format gives each one hour to catch three waves.
