Watch: Jacob Willcox Put The $90K Gage Roads Troopy Through Its Paces

“I’m going to be a professional beer sipper after this trip” – Jack Robbo.

Editor’s note: Gage Roads is giving you a chance to win a $90K Toyota LandCruiser Troopcarrier simply by purchasing 2 pints, a six-pack or case of Gage Roads beer or cider next time you’re at a bar or bottle shop.

A few weeks ago, the Gage Roads surf team—Jack Robinson, Jacob Willcox, and Brendan “Margo” Margieson—linked up in West Oz for a mission to create content around the very exciting Gage Roads Toyota Landcruiser Troopy giveaway.

Step one? Head to Gage Roads’ riverfront Fremantle venue to bless the beast with a signature (and maybe a quick ogle of Jack Robinson’s good-juju-infused Olympic silverware).

Step two? Unplug and unleash with an unofficial heat at one of Margaret River’s many hard-to-access surf breaks. As you will see, the Troopy passed with flying colours.

Gage Roads’ surf team reflects a diverse cross-section of Australian surfing. From CT standouts like Jack Robinson, Jacob Willcox, and Bronte Macaulay to freesurfing staples like Margo, McKenzie Bowden, and Ellie Brooks, Gage backs Australian surf culture in ways that resonate without fanfare.

Their films, Home Run and Tins & Fins, are understated tributes to the connection between surfing and community. They’ve also thrown support behind events like the Burleigh Single Fin Classic and Whalebone Classic, the kind of gatherings that keep surfing tied to its roots.

It’s this approach—measured, consistent, and genuine—that makes Gage Roads feel different. A surfer-owned brewery with a clear sense of place, they’re not trying to do it all; they’re just doing it right.

With the stamp of approval from the Gage Roads surf team, get your hands on some Gage roads beer or cider this summer to WIN the ultimate dirt track chariot — we’ll see you at checkout.   

The 78 Series 2012 Toyota LandCruiser comes decked out with over $15,000 worth of Dometic, Front Runner and Enerdrive products, including:

  • Roof racks
  • Surf racks 
  • Built in kitchen
  • Draws for storage
  • Power system
  • Solar battery
  • CX5 Camp fridge/freezer
  • BBQ Plate and more….
  • Plus your very own Shareye surfboard signed by Jack Robbinson
