J-Bay Open & Hossegor Roxy/Quikpro 2016 are on!

WSL reveal their 2016 calendar. The Hossegor Roxy / Quikpro are on at the same period as in 2015. If you are interested in booking a private room with us, please think about contact us early, the earlier the better.  

J-Bay Open is also on despite this year's close call and despite all the dispositives the WSL uses to secure the spots  "technology is not 100% effective, our athletes know it and have always known" says Kieren Perrow, WSL Commissioner 

So what's new ? 

Not much. Apart from a few slight date changes (the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast starts 10 days later) otherwise the tour is identical. 

The Margaret River leg will take place on 3 different spots, obviously depending on conditions : the main peak on Surfer’s Point, the slab The Boxet and the awesome right of  North Point, which gave some of the best free-surf sessions on the 2015 tour. 2016 going to be a good one.
