Maldives, 2014-2-20 — /travelprnews.com/ — The countdown to the world’s most luxurious surfing competition has begun! Taylor “TK” Knox has confirmed he’ll be heading back to Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa to defend his title at the fourth annual Surfing Champions Trophy 2014. A unique event on the surfing calendar, the invitation-only contest sees six ex-World Champions battle it out across three divisions of board – retro single-fin, twin-fin and contemporary triple-fin – for kudos and the USD 25,000 purse.
“I’m totally stoked to be taking part again this year,” commented American legend Knox. “It’s such an awesome contest. I mean, what could be better than a few days hanging out on the Maldives’ breaks for some friendly wave rivalry, then chilling out in paradise in the evenings? I can’t wait to see who I’ll be pitted against this year!”
The competition is hosted onboard the luxury Four Seasons Explorer – the Maldives’ ultimate surf vessel – with a limited number of exclusive day-passes for fans to get up close and personal with all the action. Spectators get to stay on the 96-bungalow private island at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa with the competitors and judges for an incredible inner-circle surfing lifestyle experience.
Event co-ordinator Mark Winson of Tropicsurf says, “The Maldives and Kuda Huraa surf scene really comes alive at this time of year. In its fourth year now, the competition is generating a real buzz – enough to entice some legends out of retirement! And it’s great for the sport in general; all the up and coming surfers get the opportunity to see their heroes in action – it’s inspirational stuff.”
Limited day passes will be available (at a fee) for non-package guests and members of the public wishing to view the event from Four Seasons Explorer. Call + 960 66 44 888 for enquiries and rates.
