Quicksilver Pro Gold CoastMonday, February 23rd, 2009 by MC |
It’s that time again…
The kickoff event of the ASP World Championship Tour 2009 season starts on February 28th, and will finish by March 11th. Set on Queensland’s idyllic Gold Coast at the fabled “Superbank“, the Quicksilver Pro Australia is always an awesome event and according to all the buzz on the world wide web, the contestants are fired up for a win. A win on the “Goldie” is a surefire way to start the year off right and has proven to give an edge to battlers in events far beyond the Australian Leg of the tour.
Will Slater start his campaign for title # 10 with a win? You can bet the Coolie kids will have something to say about that. Will Taj do an air? Will Josh Kerr invent a new maneuver? Will Taylor Knox surf on rail?!
One thing’s for certain, the drama will be high, the surfing will be the best ever seen, and the waves will be pumping. Look for goofy footers to do their best Occy imitations and for all the regs to punt and carve with reckless abandon.
Here’s a round one recap from the 2008 contest.
