PIC Saipan will be hosting the 2018 Asia Flow Tour and 12th PIC Point Break Championships this weekend.
Competitors are from Japan, Korea, Russia, and Germany, while local riders are also joining the event. Preliminary matches will start this Friday at 5:30pm, while Saturday will be the main event.
“We are still welcoming more people to join in. We have different categories for riders from beginners to pros. It would be a great opportunity to come in and just have a blast. Come out and watch riders perform skateboarding- type tricks and acrobatic tricks on the boogie board and stand up boards on PIC’s artificial wave machine, Point Break,” PIC Saipan Sports and Events manager Keoni Ichihara.
This years’ event is sponsored by Pacific Trading Company, Bridge Capital, E-Land, Kensington Hotel, Coral Ocean Golf Resort, Marianas Visitors Authority, 670 Rock Steady (Magas), Kanoa Resort, Fiesta Resort, Triple J Wholesale, T-Galleria, and Saipan Vegas.
Cash prizes, trophies, and other prizes from the event sponsors await the winners. Limited edition shirts and lunch will also be provided to participants this Saturday.
Entry fee is $50 for pro divisions, $20 for Grometts 11 and under, and $30 for all other divisions. Entry forms can be found at the PIC Front Desk. For more inquiries, call 237-5174 or email at keoni.ichihara@picsaipan.com. (PR)
