ELECTRIC’s Gabe Kling & Andrew Doheny Win the Lowers WQS & Pro Jr
MAY 8, 2010 | GABE KLING & ANDREW DOHENY WIN THE LOWERS WQS & PRO JR | LOWER TRESTLES, SAN CLEMENTE, CA
Gabe Kling (former WCT surfer) is no stranger to surfing with some of the most talented competitors in the world and Saturday would prove that he deserves to be on the Dream Tour again. Gabe has battled injury after injury over the past 3 years and after all of his hard work and endless dedication his payback came this past weekend.
On the final day Gabe took out surfers like 3 time World Champion Andy Irons, standout surfer of the event Jordy Smith, Cory Lopez, and Australian Chris Davidson. With this win Gabe collects $20K and 6500 valuable points which moves him to 5th place in the rankings for the World Qualifying Series (WQS).
Andrew Doheny also prevailed in the Oakley Pro Junior! Andrew has never won on the ASP Jr’s circut until now. This victory could be the biggest win in his career not only because of the prestige of the event but the field of international athletes that he had to outshine.
Andrews 17.10 out of 20 total score in the finals proved that he was smashing not only his competitors but every wave that he took as well. Andrew picks up $2K cash and 1500 points that will help in qualifying in the ASP World Jr Tour.
Overall just a great week for Gabe, Andrew, and the ELECTRIC team in our own backyard. Great work boyz!!!
