Right from the spiritual birthplace of the traditional, ocean-based culture Makaha, this year's ultimate ASP World Longboard Championship, the OXBOW Wave Sliders’ event takes places from October 30 until November 7, 2010 on the island of Oahu, Hawaii.
This unique opportunity for longboarders to be under the spotlight will lure participants to several expression sessions true to the maxim of living their passion for the Ocean: SUP (Stand Up Paddle), Alaia (original wooden board) and Surfing sessions will be at the heart of this multi-faceted event.
It will highlight a professional sliding ASP World Championship that gathers the best longboarders worldwide. The worlwide Longboard community will be given the one-off to follow 32 of the best Longboarders selected, coming together on the basis of last year's top rankings and the regional ASP selection: you'll be able to witness the talents of international and local heroes such as the Australian winner of the 2009 event in the Maldives, Harley Ingleby who will be present and will fight to keep his crown…
But be careful Harley, this year’s competition sounds quite challenging! The French ISA Champion Antoine Delpero, the Hawaiian natural born surfers Duane DeSoto and Bonga Perkins as well as the American triple World Champion Colin McPhilips will put their hearts and souls in challenging the current titleholder.
Inspired by the Hawaiian ocean spirit and lifestyle, the foundation “Na Kama Kai” organizes special clinics for children from all over the world. Hence, we are proud to devote the first day of our event to our children so as to make them discover the ocean and its multi-faceted spirit.
