Entry is now open for Boardmasters all-new surf comps, set to take place at Fistral Beach this summer.
With the loss of the headline international surf competition this year, Boardmasters organisors say they are proud to be embracing home grown surf talent more than ever before.
Kicking things off will be the men’s open with 2002 Boardmasters champion and twice UK Pro Tour champion Russell Winter and 2012 UK Pro Tour champion Jayce Robinson already confirmed to take to the waves.
Boardmasters will also host the women’s open featuring English women’s champion, Keisha Eyre and 2012 UK Pro Champion Evie Johnson.
The men’s longboard competition will see Cornwall favourite and 7x European Longboard Champion, Ben Skinner compete against reigning English Longboard 2012 champion, Adam Griffiths.
A new addition to 2013 will include the pro junior (under 20’s) and grom masters (Under 16’s mixed competition) with Boardmasters aiming to showcase the very best of the up and coming talent that the UK has to offer. Look out for under-18 2012 Champion Job Harriss and British Nationals Pro Junior champion, Luke Dillon.
The surf at Fistral beach will also host the Boardmasters Air Show featuring one of the best aerialists in Europe, Ruebyn Ash.
