For boot 2025, Surf-Halle 17 will have a completely new look, with lots of black and steel. We took a first look inside.

There's still not much to see of a spruced-up trade fair appearance at many of the stands: there's construction going on everywhere, electric SUP pumps are roaring at every corner and mountains of packaging material are lying around. The new look of the surf hall is dominated by the black suspended walls, and most of the stands have uniform steel containers, both of which create a cool industrial look.

Even though the lighting is still a little sparse, the new look is already coming into its own. In contrast to the previous wooden huts with roofs, the hall looks much more open and airy. And when all the boards are in place for the official opening tomorrow, all the spotlights are switched on and the aisles are clear, the new design will really come into its own!

You'll find our surf stand at position D36, at the entrance to Hall 16, where you can chill out, ask the editors questions and get to know each other. secure our subscription offer for the trade fair, including a limited HiFly shirt. There is also a snack stand and plenty of seating nearby!

Tobi is our digital man, he looks after the surf website and social media channels and gets on everyone's nerves every morning by asking for more pictures and videos. His surfing CV includes all the famous choppy water spots: As a teenager, he went from his home in Münsterland to the Ijsselmeer or the Brouwersdam, and during his civilian service on Sylt, after countless washes on the west side, the Königshafen became his preferred spot. After studying in Kiel and Heidkate, he was supposed to go to Hamburg “only for a short time”, but this short time has lasted for over ten years and has made him a “weekend warrior”. He goes on tour with his family and camper van as often as possible, often to the Baltic Sea, SPO or Denmark, but also likes to go to Finland, Sweden or Sardinia.
