Stoked!

Presented by the Gold Coast World Surfing Reserve in conjunction with Flotsam Festival, the “Stoked Exhibition” is a natural fusion of Gold Coast images, movies, & paintings depicting the ocean environment and spreading the message of protecting our surfing ecosystems.

​The term “Stoked” is a universal saying expressing enlightenment that has been adopted by surfers and has worked its way into the mainstream vernacular.
The Stoked Exhibition embodies pure stoke from Gold Coast surf photographers matching the counterbalance of archival photos, movies, and evolutionary images within the Gold Coast World Surfing Reserve Burleigh to Snapper Rocks while immersed in the ocean art of Gold Coast painter, the late Peter Ramsay.

GCWSR Inc & The Ramsay Family are super stoked to present Stoked; a unique visual ethereal experience combining images, film, and art to spread the message about ocean conservation awareness, protecting surfing ecosystems & keeping the Stoke Alive!
Stoked is so stoked to be part of Flotsam Festival 2025.
