MAROUBRA BEACH, SYDNEY (Thursday, January 25, 2018): The Mothernest Tweed Coast Pro will host over-200 of Australia’s and the world’s most promising male and female surfers when the elite five-day event gets underway in late January in Cabarita.
The World Surf League (WSL) Qualifying Series (QS) 1000 competition – which will form the second of four stops on the Vissla NSW Pro Surf Series – will take place from 31 January – 4 February, 2018.
It is estimated over 20 different countries will be represented when the five-day event gets underway.
Fresh off a victory at the recent Carve Pro at Maroubra, local Tweed surfer Kobie Enright is eager to continue her momentum when the event kicks off in her local region.
“I couldn’t have asked for a much better start to 2018 than to win the Carve Pro last week,” said Enright. “With any luck I'll use this momentum to my advantage when the Mothernest Tweed Coast Pro lands in my home region next week. The entire Vissla NSW Pro Surf Series is the perfect stepping stone into the year and I really want to use it as a pathway to qualify like so many others have done previously.”
Micah Margieson, Mitchell James, Alyssa Lock, Brittani Nicholl and Ashlee Spence will join Enright on the list of Tweed locals who will be competing in the event.
