We were super stoked to hear the official news of World Surf League announcing the addition of the men's QS5,000 Pro Taghazout Bay to the 2020 Qualifying Series schedule.
What does this mean?
The QS5,000 Pro Taghazout Bay will bring some of the finest competitors from the QS field to the dreamy land of perfect rights in Taghazout, unfolding on our world-renown Anchor Point. 10 minutes walk from the surfcamp.
"I'm really stoked to finally see my home spot shine," Ramzi Boukhiam, Moroccan professional surfer stated. "I can't wait for everyone to enjoy our waves and the beautiful culture. It's fantastic to have this first big QS in Morocco, especially on a world class wave. 2020 is going to be a big year with major goals, having the Olympics, and my qualification on the CT. I'm ready!"
Big Qualifying Series events early in the season are extremely important for surfers trying to secure or retain their spot in the QS Top 100 and potentially fight by year's end for qualification on the Championship Tour, which guarantees a strong field heading to Morocco in January.
The event will also count in both the African and European Regional Title races and welcome the best surfers from the two continents.
When is the event taking place?
From January 25 - February 1, 2020
