Aussie Surfer Taj Burrows Wins Breaka Burleigh Surf Pro

Taj Burrows Breaka Burliegh Surf Pro
Aussie surfer Taj Burrows has taken home the prize money in the Breaka Burleigh Surf Pro today. With 90 thousand dollars up for grabs, and many of the world’s best surfers heading down under for the ASP Quicksilver Pro, the line up was impressive. The early exit of Aussies Mick Fanning in the round of 32 and Bede Durbidge in the quarter finals shocked the thousands of spectators thronging the beach.

The Breaka Burleigh Surf Pro is the first professional surfing event to be held at Burleigh in almost a decade. The surf dropped off in the finals and the competitors had to wait for sets to roll in. There were plenty of aerial moves in the small but clean right handers.

Taj burrows first wave scored a 9.1 which would be the highest scoring ride of the final. Josh Kerr managed an 8.6 while Owen Wright and Dusty Payne (Haw) struggled to post decent scoring rides.

Taj Burrows said it was great to be back at Burleigh Heads, where he had spent such a lot of time over the years.

“It’s such a great wave, and to be able to win the very first competition here in so long is just great,” he said.

The 2010 Quiksilver Pro and Roxy Pro will be held on the Gold Coast at Snapper Rocks from February 26th to March 10th.
