The action will kick off on Friday morning October 23 at 8 am at Halfways on Kuta Beach, as there is a rising tide coupled with a new swell that should make for perfect conditions for the international field of men and women longboard aficionado’s.  They have been waiting to break out their 9 foot plus boards and show off their old school and new school styles for the fans on the beach, so get out there early and plan to enjoy a great show!

Longboarders from Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, Hawaii, the USA, Italy, and Brazil are expected to be participating in this event, with all but the finals being held on Friday.  The final will be held on Sunday together with the finals from all the other divisions.  The winner will receive a special hand-carved trophy and a winner’s check for 2.5 million rupiah. 

The top placing Indonesian longboarder will be crowned the Coca-Cola ISC Longboard Champion for 2009 and receive a trophy and a 5 million rupiah cash prize at the Coca-Cola-ISC Awards Presentation that will be held in mid November.
