Hi Guys,
As some of you may be aware, the Drug Aware Pro presented by O'Neill is happening in Margaret River from April 6th to 13th. The event is one of the highest rated World Qualifying Series events on the tour calendar, with a 5 star event for the Women and a 6 star Prime event for the Men.
Over the last 8 months West has put together a really exciting Pro Team and Pro Junior Team. All of our Pro Team will be here for the event and 2 of our Pro Juniors will also be competing in the Trials. The team is staying together in a house during the event and as well as competing we have arranged for photo shoots (both lifestyle and surfing) throughout the week and we will be filming all the fun and games, to generate exposure and launch the new WEST PRO TEAM. The team riders are really excited and can't wait to get involved hands on with the company and our local WA team riders.
For those of you staying in Perth, you can watch Luke Munro, Glen Hall, James Wood, Tom Innes, Kerby Brown, Andrew Sheridan, Mitch Taylor and Dan Moore live online at www.drugawarepro.com and make sure you cheer loud. If anyone is going to be heading down to the event, let me know and we'll make sure you can link up with the team, see who exactly is riding for us and join in on the fun.
ASP Australasia have been quoted as saying that "West has put together the best team that they have had in the past 15years". So lets be proud that we have a fantastic bunch of surfers representing our company and get behind them 100% as they do what they do best and compete in this hotly contested event.
Best of luck to the team and enjoy the week ahead!
Kind regards,
Brodie Cott
Team Manager
