APT officials and the event directors for the Bank of Hawaii North Shore Tow-In Surfing Championship presented by Buttons Hawaii and Towsurfer.com, have officially gone to a 24-hour advance green light notice to hold this world-class tow-in event this Thursday Feb. 15th.
The big wave tow-in surf contest is set to take place on one of the two main big wave outer reef spots over a mile outside of Haleiwa Harbor known as Outside Avalanche and Outside Puaena Point.
With a holding period from December 15, 2006 thru March 31, 2007, some of the best and most respected tow surfers from around the world will be competing for one of eight available slots that will permit a winning team to advance to a seeded position in the Mexico and South America events later this year. Then from there, it is off to the APT World Title Tow-In Surfing Championships scheduled for 2007/2008.
“We are excited to get the tour off the ground. It will be a great start. We have support from the top pro tow surfers and it looks good tomorrow for solid 25-30 foot faces. We are looking forward to high performance tow-in surfing”. Says, Eric Akiskalian, APT Founder/President. “This is for the love of tow-in surfing”, reflected Alec Cooke, Event Director. “We are creating the future here, love is in the air. I have put a lot of spiritual energy into this event, it will be all good!.”
The contest kicks off with a Hawaiian blessing on Thursday 7am at Haleiwa Harbor. Video highlights and photos will be available for media purposes.
