The Highland Open was first staged in April 2006. Thurso had long been known to hardcore UK surfers as the home of one of the most serious and demanding waves in Europe and O’Neill took the decision to stage a major WQS contest to put the town on the world surfing map.
The Event is a 6 star WQS, so it brings out all the names on the WQS circuit including, Sunny Garcia from HAW, who's attempting to qualify for the WCT tour next year and a few of our lads, inc Alan Stokes, Oli Adams, Sam Lamiroy.
The event was off yesterday due to lack of swell and its been moved to Brimms Ness this morning in the hope of better conditions.
