2012 Surf Event Format

Sea Session Quiksilver Expression Session

The Sea Sessions expression session is the first speciality event ASP Europe have endorsed in Ireland or the UK and will see the best of Europe pitted against the best in Ireland and the UK. The format is simple, the best move/wave depending on conditions wins the heat, simple as. This allows the surfers to go for it and not worry about strategy etc. There is a cash prize pot of €3000. Head of ASP Europe Gregorie Puget stated it is “ Great to see Quiksilver sponsoring the event, great to see Irish surfers enter as it will be a great opportunity for ASP Europe to highlight theses kids’ performance, far from the usual South West Coast of France and Basque Country.

Format
The surfers will be made up of 15 invited surfers from across Europe plus 5 Irish wildcards. The Irish wildcards will be selected from a trials event which will be announced closer to the event.  The heats will be 30 minutes with only the best move scored.

The event is mobile and has a waiting period from Wednesday the 27th June to Sunday the 1st July. The event will be run off when the best waves occur at the best tide so sorry we can’t schedule it but we will have the event videoed for all to see online. We will also have the ASP attending and it will give all the surfers competing a chance to gain European recognition.
