Asian Surfing Championships

The Asian Surfing Championships is an association that exists for the promotion of the sport of surfing in Asia through the organization of competitions.

History of the ASC

The Asian Surfing Championships was created in 2011. They are headquartered in Bali and led by Tim Haines. The ASC promotes the sport of surfing in Asian Countries, and also helps other countries establish organized and sanctioned events. The Championship develops the skills of surfers through competition, brings media attention to formerly unfamiliar regions, and aids in the advancement of surfing locally, regionally, and nationally. The ASC works with local, national, and multinational event sponsors, maximizing the results of competitive surfing events. Every year during a multi-national surfing tour an Asian Surfing Champion is crowned in multiple divisions: Open, Women, Longboard, Junior, and Master.[1]

In 2014, there was organization of an ASC Awards trip to G-Land filmed by Indo Inc Productions.
