The fourteenth event of Marble League 2019, Surfing, was held on 4 June 2019. The event was a new event for Marble League 2019, it was water-themed fitting to the hosts, the Oceanics.

Event

In this event, two marbles compete against each other at the same time. The surfing event consists of three stages: the rundown to the water, the section where the marbles surf with the surfboard as far as possible, and a final race to the finish underwater. The marbles must try to achieve the highest score they can. The score is determined by surf distance and time to the finish line (which is 30 seconds minus the marble's time). The best time from the two rounds is counted as the final result. Each marble gets two attempts at scoring the highest number of points with their best score being their result.
