A message from our sponsor - Jeep Apparel




A message from our loyal sponsor - Jeep Apparel SA


DURBAN SURF CARNIVAL presented by JEEP APPAREL 2013

Jeep Apparel SA is once again proud to sponsor the Durban Surf Carnival taking place from the 7th to the 9th of June at Durban’s famous “New Pier”.

Jeep has been proudly involved in this event for 11 years and we have watched it grow from strength to strength. Last year the event moved from Scottburgh Beach on the South Coast to Durban’s New Pier. This move unfortunately resulted in the event having to lose the Kite Boarding competition, due to the location not being suitable for Kite Surfing and also the winds are not usually favorable in June in Durban.

The event this year is a week earlier than the Top Gear Festival, as opposed to 2012, where we were affected by road closures and limited traffic access to the beaches, as it fell on the same weekend. We would love to see you all down on the beach supporting the event and watching some exciting surfing over the different surfing disciplines and of course to soak up the great Durban Winter weather.

A special thank you to Paul and Pat from Nerve Events for their tireless efforts over the past 11 years and the great success that they have achieved in building the event to where it is today. We would also like to thank all the other sponsors involved, without all of you this event could not take place.

Jeep Apparel SA wishes all of our local and visiting surfers, long boarders and stand up paddle surfers from all over the country a great contest and safe travels to Durban. Lets hope that we have some awesome surfing conditions.

We would also like to welcome Justin Bing to the Jeep team. Justin is SA’s top SUP rider and he will be representing the Jeep brand in this year’s event.

I look forward to seeing you all at the beach. Enjoy the contest.


Steve Uppink
Managing Director Jeep Apparel SA
