From a prone starting position on the beach, competitors rise, turn and race to obtain a baton (beach flag) buried upright in the sand approximately 20 mtr away. Since there are always fewer batons than competitors, those who fail to obtain a baton are eliminated.

With a running start on the beach the athlete goes into the water. Competitors swim around the 400 mtr course designated by buoys, returning to shore to finish with another run on the beach.

A team member swims to the assigned buoy and touches it. The next lifesaver that is equiped with a rescie tube and fins starts from the shore. After reaching the buoy, the competitor fixes the tube around the ‘victim’ and tows him or her back to the beach. The rescue is supported by two other team members who overtake the victim in the shallow water to complete the race by dragging the person over the finish line.

In this event, 1 team member of the team swims to a designated buoy, signals, and waits to be picked up by the second member of the team on a board. They both paddle to shore and cross the finish line on the beach with the board.
