The water temperature might still be warming but the action is sure to be hot when the Headworx sponsored British Professional Surfing Association(BPSA) events kick off in June.
Headworx has chosen to undertake a significant investment in “grass roots” surfing with the sponsorship of 5 new events in the UK. Along with the existing sponsorship of the Headworx Welsh Open, Headworx will now sponsor 6 of the 8 planned events of this second year of the BPSA Tour. Along with the title sponsorship, Headworx will be investing £30,000 into British Surfing, including a £3,000 purse prize for the top surfers at the end of the 2002 tour.
Headworx also recognise that the best quality waves hit the UK shores during spring and autumn. Therefore, the events begin in June and continue from September onwards. In addition, the 'mobile option', meaning that the event can move to whichever local break is experiencing the best surf, will ensure that these events will not only raise the profile of British Surfing but also clearly showcase the true talents of the competitors.
Organiser Dave Reed is also finalising dates for a Headworx Jersey event, to be advised shortly.
Peripheral Junior disciplines, Expression Sessions, Long Board, plus the compulsory major parties will all combine with the Open categories to support Britain's competitive surf scene like never before!
