PREPARE FOR THE FIRST NATIONAL SURF COMPETITION OF THE YEAR
Happening on Feb 9 to 12 that’s Thursday to Sunday, the competition will be held at the Sabang beach break for the eliminations while the semis and finals are to be held at Cemento Reef as conditions will permit. This ‘shortboard’ only competition will see the best surfers from the country carve, snap and fly on their boards with huge prizes waiting for the winners.
Speaking of winners, homeboy Jeff dela Torre has won the event 2 times in a row. So, will he get a prestigious record of a 3 peat Aurora Surfing Challenge crown? Or will this be the year a new surfer will be crowned as champion? Siargao, Daet, La Union, Lanuza and Zambales surfers among others are definitely hot on the chase. And in the midst of the action, LokalSoul will be there to find out the results of this exciting event.
The Aurora Surfing Challenge is brought to you by Aurora Surfriders Association Incorporated (ASRAI) in cooperation with Congressman Sonny Angara and the Tourism of Aurora. LokalSoul.com as always is a proud media sponsor.
