After more than 15 years in Capbreton (Fra), the Quiksilver King of the Groms is on the move. Europe's top young surfers aged 16 and under are all set to meet up on 7th and 8th August in Zarautz in the Basque Country, to compete in the European final.
The contest will be held in the very same waves where Basque surfer Aritz Aranburu learned his trade. He is currently one of the seven Europeans on the ASP World Tour. Ten years after winning the Grommets Trophy (now the King of the Groms) Aritz Aranburu (Eus) will be sponsoring this 2009 edition.
Whilst the date and venue of the European final are changing, the concept remains the same:
- Qualifier events across Europe
- A European final at Zarautz from 7th to 8th August 2009
