It was released this week that popular St Ives charity surf competition the Greenaway Pro has been postponed until 2012. Organiser Matt Smith confirmed that they were moving to a bi-annual format so that they could do the competition full justice.

This leaves a gap in the ASG 2011 British Tour schedule, and BBC Chairman Rich Hall said; “We’re currently talking to a number of parties about including a bodyboard division in an existing competition; failing which we will look to put on a replacement comp ourselves”. He continued “whilst it’s not ideal for us for the 2011 tour, we are completely behind the organisers of the Greenaway Pro and look forward to being an integral part of their set-up in 2012”.

Competitors should keep a close eye on the BBC website for details of the replacement comp. Any prospective sponsors wishing to take advantage of the gap in the tour schedule in order to get involved should contact Rich on [email protected] ASAP.
