Straight from the Pet World, the competition of canines competing were broken down into four weight categories based on their own size. These include the small size weighing under 20lbs. to the extra-large over 60lbs. In addition, owners could surf with their pets or two pooches could be surfing together in a popular tandem category. Is this possibly a whole new level of contenders to be reckoned with?
