Earlier this month, Byron Bay Brewery and Stab presented the ‘Big Surf Showdown’ to the good people of Byron Shire at Traeger Warehouse.

Hundreds of folk from the local community turned up and Soundboks, the Denmark-founded “performance speaker” co responsible for amplifying the Landlords groovy tunes on the night in crystal clear, ear-melting quality, offered whoever could correctly guess the number of caps cardboard Krooky ate on the night one of their state-of-the-art Soundbok Go’s. 

We now have a winner.

Congrats Isaac G Gray, it’s time to throw a house party.

If you’re not familiar with Soundbok Go’s

They’re slick, lunchbox-sized speakers with all the bells and whistles: Bluetooth 5.0, great battery life (40 hours of playback time at mid-volume, five hours at full volume 126 dB), complete portability, durable design, and If you’re throwing a mini festival you can seamlessly sync up to five together at once. 

Krooky’s winning bag weighed 302 g’s.

Congrats on your wonderful maths, Isaac.
