Event
Information:
The
perfect waves of Señoritas and
Caballeros will see over 200 surfers
as members of their National Surfing
Teams compete for medals in one of
the world’s greatest surfing events.
Señoritas and Caballeros is a
perfect setting for an ISA event as
there are both perfect and
consistent left and right
pointbreaks that work at the same
time and are close to each other.
The breaks are located in the famous
surfing town of Punta Hermosa, which
also has the necessary
infrastructure to hold an event of
this magnitude.
The Peruvian Surfing Federation is
accustomed to organizing world-class
surfing events including a historic
ISA World Masters Surfing
Championship in 2008 that had
perfect six-foot waves every single
day. In addition, they organized a
successful edition of the Pan
American Surfing Games in 2006 and
have hosted a stop for the ASP
Women’s World Tour since 2007.
For the second year in a row,
leading surf wear brand Billabong
will be the title sponsor of this
enormous Olympic Style event.
The
International Surfing Association
(ISA) is recognized by the
International Olympic Committee
(IOC) as the World Governing
Authority for Surfing. It was
originally founded as the
International Surfing Federation in
1964 and has been running world
championships since 1964 and the
Junior World Championships since
1980.
