After the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]], the ISA banned athletes and officials from Russia from ISA events, and said the ISA would not stage events in Russia.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.northcoastcurrent.com/region/2022/03/international-surfing-assoc-cuts-russian-athletes-officials-from-events/ | title=International Surfing Assoc.

== History ==
The ISA was originally named the International Surfing Federation (ISF) between 1964 and 1973.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/the-complete-list-of-world-surfing-champions|title=The complete list of world surfing champions|editor=SurferToday.com|website=Surfertoday|language=en-gb|access-date=2019-03-18}}</ref> An Open Division World Championships has been contested biennially since 1964, a Junior World Championships since 1980, a Masters World Championships since 2007 and a Stand Up Paddle World Championship since 2011.<ref>[http://www.isasurf.org/home_about.php ISA About] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110426164457/http://www.isasurf.org/home_about.php |date=2011-04-26 }} (accessed 28 April 2011)</ref>

=== Recognition as governing body of surfing ===
In 1982 the [[SportAccord]], formerly known as General Association of International Sports Federations (GAISF), recognized the ISA as the world's governing body of surfing. In 1995 the International Olympic Committee granted the ISA provisional recognition. ISA was admitted into the Olympic movement at 1997 when the recognition was confirmed by the IOC.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/575128/surfing/218604/Professional-surfing|title=surfing - water sport|encyclopedia=Encyclopædia Britannica|access-date=19 June 2015}}</ref>

== Mission ==

==Olympic Surfing==

=== Olympic Bid ===
The organizing committee for the 2020 Games in [[Tokyo]] announced on 22 June 2015 that surfing was among the sports shortlisted for inclusion at the [[2020 Summer Olympics]]. On 3 August 2016, during the 129th IOC Session at the Rio de Janeiro 2016 Olympic Games, the IOC unanimously voted to include five new sports, among them surfing, to the sports program of the Tokyo 2020 Games.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.isasurf.org/isa-thrilled-by-ioc-decision-to-add-surfing-to-tokyo-2020-olympic-games/|title=ISA Thrilled by IOC Decision to Add Surfing to Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games|date=2016-08-03|work=International Surfing Association|access-date=2018-04-25|language=en-US}}</ref>

Surfing was included in the Tokyo 2020 Games on a one-off basis, and the ISA now has shifted their focused towards securing surfing's inclusion in the next editions of the Olympics, including Paris 2024 and LA 2028.

=== Olympic Qualification Process ===
On 16 March 2018, the International Surfing Association (ISA) welcomed the release by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) of the approved qualification system for Surfing's Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020, ensuring the participation of the world's best professional surfers as well as promoting universal opportunities for surfers from around the world at the Games.

The key elements of the qualification system are as follows:

* 20 men, 20 women.
* Maximum of 2 surfers per gender per National Olympic Committee (NOC).
* Qualification spots will be earned on an individual basis, by name.
* In accordance with IOC guidelines, the qualification events have been determined in hierarchical order of qualification, as further explained below; If two surfers of a gender have qualified through the first hierarchical order, that NOC will not be able to qualify more surfers of that gender through qualifying events lower in hierarchical order.
* All surfers selected by their respective National Federations for their national teams must participate in 2019 and [[2021 ISA World Surfing Games]] in order to be eligible for Olympic qualification. The final details of the eligibility requirements are still under review by the ISA and the IOC.

The hierarchical order of qualification are as follows:

# [[2019 World Surf League]] Championship Tour: First 10 eligible men and first 8 eligible women.
# [[2021 ISA World Surfing Games]]: First 4 eligible men and first 6 eligible women.
# [[2019 ISA World Surfing Games]]: 4 men and 4 women selected based on their continent. Top finishing eligible surfer of each gender from Africa, Asia, Europe and Oceania.
# [[Surfing at the 2019 Pan American Games|2019 Pan American Games]]: First eligible man and first eligible woman in the surfing competitions.
# Host nation slot: One man and one woman slot will be guaranteed for the host nation of Japan, unless already filled through the above hierarchies. Should athletes from Japan qualify regularly, their slots will be reallocated to the highest ranked eligible surfers from the 2021 World Surfing Games.

=== ISA World Surfing Games ===
{{main|World Surfing Games}}
The ISA World Surfing Games is an Olympic style team competition that gathers National Delegations from around the world. Each team can field up to three men and three women. The surfers compete for individual medals and the coveted Fernando Aguerre World Team Trophy, named for and donated by the ISA President.

The event was first held in 1964 in Manly, Australia under the name 'ISA World Surfing Championships.'

Stemming from the global growth of Surfing spurred by inclusion in the Olympic Games, the 2017 edition of the ISA World Surfing Games broke the record for country participation. The previous record was set in 1996 when 36 nations graced the shores of Huntington Beach, USA, but in Biarritz 47 countries competed, shattering the record.

Many nations had representation in the event for the first time in history in 2017, including Afghanistan, China, Chinese Taipei, Greece, Senegal and South Korea.

=== ISA World Junior Surfing Championship ===
The ISA hosted its first World Junior Surfing Championship in 1980 in Biarritz, France, where legendary surfer Tom Curren became the first ISA World Junior Champion, helping to launch his successful career. The event was held as a division of the ISA World Surfing Games until 2003, when it was held as a stand-alone event for the first time in Durban, South Africa.

Historically, the ISA World Junior Surfing Championship has served as a glimpse into the future stars of the sport. Past ISA World Junior Champions include the 2014 WSL Champion [[Gabriel Medina]] (BRA, 2010), [[Tatiana Weston-Webb]] (HAW, 2014, 2013), [[Filipe Toledo]] (BRA, 2011), [[Tyler Wright (surfer)|Tyler Wright]] (AUS, 2010, 2009), Alejo Muniz (BRA, 2008), [[Laura Enever]] (AUS, 2008), [[Sally Fitzgibbons]] (AUS, 2007), Julian Wilson (AUS, 2006), [[Owen Wright (surfer)|Owen Wright]] (AUS, 2006), [[Stephanie Gilmore]] (AUS, 2005, 2004), [[Matt Wilkinson (surfer)|Matt Wilkinson]] (AUS, 2004), [[Jordy Smith]] (RSA, 2003) and [[Leonardo Fioravanti (surfer)|Leonardo Fioravanti]] (ITA, 2015).

=== ISA World Adaptive Surfing Championship ===
The ISA World Adaptive Surfing Championship was created to give surfers with physical challenges an opportunity to compete and display their talents in a Paralympic-style, world-class competition.

The event has experienced unprecedented growth since the inaugural edition in 2015. The World Championship has spurred growth of the sport around the world, with nations such as France, Australia, Chile, Brazil, USA, Hawaii and South Africa holding National Championships of their own to select their National Teams to bring to California.

The 2017 edition shattered participation records with 109 athletes from 26 countries, more than a 50% increase from the inaugural edition of the event in 2015.

=== ISA World SUP and Paddleboard Championship ===
The ISA World SUP and Paddleboard Championship is an Olympic-style, team competition that combines the disciplines of SUP Surfing, SUP Racing and Paddleboard Racing. The athletes compete for individual gold medals and the Club Waikiki-Peru ISA World Team Champion Trophy awarded to the team that wins the gold medal.

The 2017 edition of the event was the first to feature gender equality across all divisions, reflective of the rapid growth of women's SUP racing and surfing.

== Authority and Development of StandUp Paddle (SUP) ==
The ISA has been the organizer of the sole World Championship for SUP and Paddleboard since 2012. The event was first held in Peru (2012, 2013), with following editions held in Nicaragua (2014), Mexico (2015), Fiji (2016), and Denmark (2017).

Through development programs, scholarships for young SUP athletes, and promoting Championships at the national level, SUP has experienced explosive growth under the ISA's guidance, which can be observed in the participation levels seen in the World Championship that have nearly quadrupled since its inception.

The ISA presented both Surfing and SUP to the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee for inclusion in the Olympic Sports Program. Tokyo 2020 only elected Surfing to be included in the Games and not SUP, however achievements such as inclusion in the 2019 Pan American Games and 2017 Central American Games have added momentum to the ISA's push for inclusion in the 2024 Olympics.

== Executive committee ==
The ISA Executive Committee is composed of the ISA President, ISA Executive Director and four Vice Presidents. Its mission is to define ISA strategies and plans of action, “For a Better Surfing Future.” The executive committee works with the ISA staff throughout the year to develop future plans.

Current Executive Committee (as of April 2018):

* '''President''' - Fernando Aguerre (ARG)
* '''Executive Director''' - Robert Fasulo (USA)
* '''Vice President''' - Karin Sierralta (PER)
* '''Vice President''' - [[Kirsty Coventry]] (ZIM)
* '''Vice President''' - Casper Steinfath (DEN)
* '''Vice President''' - [[Barbara Kendall]] (NZL)

== ISA Athletes' Commission ==
On 24 April 2018 the ISA announced the formation of a new Athletes’ Commission to ensure that athletes’ opinions are heard at the highest level of governance in Surfing, StandUp Paddle (SUP), and all surf-related disciplines.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.isasurf.org/international-surfing-association-forms-new-athletes-commission-to-amplify-voice-of-athletes-in-lead-up-to-tokyo-2020/ |title=ISA Forms New Athletes' Commission to Amplify Voice of Athletes in Lead Up to Tokyo 2020 |website=www.isasurf.org |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180427120918/http://www.isasurf.org/international-surfing-association-forms-new-athletes-commission-to-amplify-voice-of-athletes-in-lead-up-to-tokyo-2020/ |archive-date=2018-04-27}}</ref>

France's [[Justine Dupont]], who has medaled across three ISA disciplines (Shortboard, Longboard, and SUP), has been appointed the Chair of the commission. Dupont earned Team Gold at the 2017 ISA World Surfing Games and individual Silver in SUP Surfing at the 2017 ISA World SUP and Paddleboard Championship.
