QUEENSLANDERS KOBIE ENRIGHT AND CURTIS EWING WIN THE 2021 GOLD COAST OPEN IN PICTURE PERFECT CONDITIONS AT BURLEIGH POINT

Wow. What a long weekend. If you were one of the thousands of surf-crazed fans who lined Burleigh Point over the past few days, you must certainly agree.

Where to begin.

The first two days of the event saw a strong swell pulse along the Point. It wasn’t easy going, but there were waves, and that’s always a good thing.

The weather didn’t always cooperate, but it didn’t stop the stacked line-up of activities that took place over the three-day event. The Mt Elephant sunrise yoga sessions delivered the morning zen, Level Up Skatepark clinics polished the ramp skills of tomorrow’s heroes, Hit 90.9 provided the beats, STAB Electric Acid Surfboard Test dialled up the action in-and-out of the water…….

…….just taking a breath.
