San Clemente, Calif., April 27, 2007 – Following the completion of round six of the Jeep Body Glove Surfbout, the ASP Grade-2 Oakley Pro Junior got underway with the opening round of competition. Boasting an international field of 32 of the top juniors in the world, the Oakley Pro Junior plays a crucial role in the race for the 2007 ASP North America Pro Junior Crown.
Nick Rozsa was in devastating form this afternoon as he locked down the Oakley Pro Junior high heat total of a 15.60 out of a possible 20. Rozsa, who has been absent from ’07 ASP Pro Junior competition due to injury, is hoping for a solid result here at Lowers to get the momentum going for a push to qualify for the Billabong ASP World Junior Championships.
“I’ve been sick for a couple of months and I’ve just started to get back in the water,” Rozsa said. ‘I’m feeling much better now and I want to get a result here so I can start my campaign for another start in the World Junior Championships.”
Other Oakley Pro Junior standouts included Hawaiian sensation Dusty Payne, Australian powerbroker Mitchell Coleburn and defending ASP North America Pro Junior Champion Eric Geiselman.
