We would like to extend our biggest CONGRATULATIONS to Ryan Hardy, for his efforts in winning the IBA Box Pro in Margaret River WA yesterday! Hardy was the hometown favourite from the beginning, and dominated throughout the comp, winning every heat he surfed.
We would also like to congratulate team riders Jared Houston and Mark McCarthy, who both surfed extremely well throughout the event. Jared was beaten in the quarter finals by fellow team rider and countryman Mark McCarthy, who in turn was eliminated by team-mate Ryan Hardy in the semi finals.
This is the first time an Emerald Team rider has won a World Tour event, so there were celebrations all round, in the shop, where we had the event showing on the big screen, and as we understand, some very large celebrations went down at the local pub in Margaret River after the event!
So once again, well done to all the boys, who surfed very well in some testing conditions! For a full run-down of the event, check the posts below.
