Mick Fanning’s Wildcards Dominate Day-Two of the Red Bull Junior Surf Masters!

July 10, DayTwo of the Red Bull Junior Surf Masters saw Mick Fanning’s 12 hand-picked wildcards enter the competition and dominate the day’s action. Although today’s round of the finals was non-elimination, there was still plenty up for grabs ahead of the event’s conclusion tomorrow, with the winners from today’s ‘Torched’ rounds automatically advancing to the event’s quarter finals.

Advancing to the quarter finals today was Mitch Crews (Currumbin, Qld), Chris Friend (Alex Headland, Qld), Matt Banting (Port Macquarie, NSW) and Ty Watson (Currarong, NSW).

The 16 losing surfers from today have now been seeded into the requalification rounds where they will fight it out for only four remaining spots in tomorrow’s quarter finals.

Running at the beaches in front of Broadbeach on the Gold Coast, the 2010 Red Bull Junior Surf Masters will conclude on tomorrow, with an action packed day ahead stacked full of surfing, music from Yves Klein Blue and with the man himself – Mick Fanning casting an eye over Australia’s next crop of surfing champions.

Fighting it out for the four remaining spots in the quarter final round is some of the world’s best professional junior surfers including the likes of Chris Salisbury (Newport, NSW), Davey Cathels (Narrabeen, NSW), Jack Freestone (Coolangatta, Qld), Perth Standlick (Bondi, NSW) and Brent Savage (Casuarina, NSW) just to name a few.

As well as all tomorrow’s action in the surf, there will be plenty of entertainment to get the crowd really going with live music and DJ sets. Brisbane indie sensation Yves Klein Blue will take to the stage right on the beach for a free live set at 3pm!

Stoked to give something back to the groms, Mick Fanning will be attending the Finals to show his support and also check out who the next big name in surfing will be!

This event is free to attend, so grab your mates and head to Broadbeach for a weekend of awesome beats, pumping waves and a chance to see the best junior surf talent Australia has to offer.
