The Royal Alfred Marina Expression Session was one of the highlights of the Royal St Andrews Hotel Rip Curl Cup. With a R10k prize pool from the Royal Alfred Marina, the stakes were high! As giant sets rolled through, the surfers threw everything they had in a quest for the 2 x R5k cheques, and it was Clayton Turrell and Luc Lepront who came out on top. Claire Wright spoke on behalf of the Royal Alfred Marina, and Kody McGregor took the shots.

"We are proud to be associated with the Royal St Andrews Hotel Rip Curl Cup and the Port Alfred Easter Festival," said Claire Wright of the Royal Alfred Marina. "Events like this bring real energy to the town and highlight the unique coastal lifestyle that makes Port Alfred so special. The Expression Session added an exciting, progressive element to the event, and we were delighted to support it."
