Thriller at Killers is a big-wave competition founded by Gary Linden and presented by Punta Brava Golf & Surf Club. It’s comprised of a one-day Main Event every January/February and a Digital Qualifier, which provides a platform for any surfer capable in big waves to earn an invite to the Main Event. This is more than just another competition — it’s a celebration of the adventurous spirit of surfing and the rich cultural heritage of the entire Bahia de Todos Santos region.
