The lights and cameras of Channel 7’s The Great South East program were also on hand to capture the action for an episode due to air early in 2014. 2013 HIGH PERFORMANCE PROGRAM SURFINGQUEENSLAND.COM.AU The Jallum Jarjums program has been run over four days throughout the year, whilst training and education programs have also accredited several indigenous youths to judge and coach within the surfing industry.
