Quiksilver
Revolution 2.0 Venue: Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon
Theme Park
Date: January 26, 2008
Quiksilver, the worlds leading outdoor lifestyle company is
proud to announce the second annual Quiksilver Revolution 2.0; a
surf, skate and music extravaganza to be held at Sunway Lagoon,
Saturday January 26, 2008!
Pushing the evolution of the event concept,
2008 will see Quiksilver challenging the definitions of event participation
through the use of new media platforms including a dedicated event
website allowing users to post clips and photos, interact online
and vote on the outcomes of the event as well as watch the whole
show live on www.quiksilver.com/revolution2.
Sunway Lagoon is already the largest man-made surf beach
in the world and a massive skate park will be added especially for
the event.
At a huge 18,000 square feet (1,672 square
metres), the surf pool at Sunway Lagoon is capable of churning out
perfectly shaped waves. Some of the worlds greatest surfers,
including aerial specialist Ry Craike, will go head-to-head in the
pool after being whipped into waves with the aid of 1200cc jetskis.
The Quiksilver Revolution 2.0 will see the
construction of a custom skate park including a special vert ramp
imported from Australia, measuring 14.5 feet (4.42m) high and 40
feet (12.19m) wide, and a mini ramp constructed by Australian Ramp
Design especially for the event.
The
Quiksilver Revolution Tour represents a new and innovative way to
introduce and develop the boardriding lifestyle via two of the worlds
most enjoyable outdoor sports, surfing and skateboarding, to an
emerging youth market.
