Surf Life Saving has preferred surf craft suppliers who meet specific SLS guidelines under the Surf Craft/Surf Boat Compliance Program.   The program is structured to support both SLS members and manufacturers and ensures that SLS competition equipment is produced to SLSA specifications.

Craft and surf boats that are produced by compliant manufacturers can be identified by the SLSA Compliance Label. Each compliance label has a specific number that is recorded by SLSA and can be traced to a particular manufacturer.

The SLSA specification statement for crafts and surf boats will be available online soon.

The below manufacturers are registered for the 2011-12 season. All manufacturers can be contacted directly by visiting their website.
