Narrative Overview

The Budhihal Base NFT Collection is designed to allow supporters of every level — from students with limited budgets to high-net-worth patrons — to back Ramesh Budhihal’s quest to climb the World Surf League pathway (Qualifying Series → Challenger Series → Championship Tour) and represent India at the Asian Games and Olympics.

Over the next decade, Ramesh’s climb from QS → CS → CT and milestones like Asian Games 2026, Los Angeles 2028, Doha 2030, and Brisbane 2032 will be directly funded by these NFTs. Each pack offers a different way to participate — from grassroots access to premium cultural patronage.
