Billabong Opens Store With SatuSuku Surf at Cherating Pt - Malaysia
(Monday 14th
December, 2009): It was a proud day for Malaysian surfing with the
opening of the first co-concept store between Billabong and
SatuSuku Surf on Saturday. The small Billabong space is set to
compliment an already thriving surf scene and the well established
SatuSuku Surf school and board hire business on the South China Sea
side of the Malaysian coastline. Locals and tourists alike flock to
Cherating Pt each monsoon season to get a taste of some of the
longest sand-bottom point breaks in the world, a few boasting rides
in excess of 1.5km long.
“We’re so stoked to have Billabong set up a space here alongside SatuSuku” claimed the Director of the SatuSuku business Khairil Ibrahim, “Billabong has already shown support in the way of
sponsoring athletes and also events, so this was the icing on the cake with regards to putting the Malaysian surfing scene on the map”.
The opening of the store could not come at a better time, as aspiring surfers from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines , gear up for the January 8 -10 Occy Grom Comp at
Cherating. 1999 World Champion of Surfing Mark ‘Occy’ Occhilupo will be there to host the event and identify up and coming talent in the SE Asia region. Jump on www.billabong.com/Asia for more info on the event and how to enter!
