Rizal makes the trip to the Hong Kong Surf Cup

On 22rd, November 2009, a sunny day with NNE swell, side offshore wind  and cool temperatures to treat this competition completed smoothly. God bless surfing...

 

 

This year X Game is so happy to have Hurley International to be our 

title sponsor, Hurley also sent Mr. Rizal Tanjung (General Manager of 

Hurley South Asia) the Bali legendary pro surfer to this event, helped 

out for the judging as well as a demo session. Rizal said "this is 

quite a nice concept to camp on the site and the hiking trail is 

beautiful, the crowd was willing to make such effort to go all the way 

there are core and keen in surfing, I like that!"

 

The competition started at 9:50am with the horn by Grant Robinson (the 

head judge) and heats back to back non stop, we had to run 2 race 

courses to complete all the heats on time and finished the last heat 

at around 4:00pm. We had total 75 competitors this year the most 

entries ever, plus hundreds of friends and spectators make this event 

full of beats.

 

Thanks to all the sponsors: Channel Islands Surfboards, Sanuk, Skull 

Candy, Team Relax, Asahi and Red Bull. Also great thanks to all the 

judges, helpers on the beach, F&B team, DJs and Hoi Fung Store to make 

another successful event for X Game.
