Wednesday, 7th December 2011 - Three time Australian Champion, Andrew Lester (Cronulla / AUS) has taken out the 2011 IBA NMD-Pride-Stealth Fronton Pro Trials in rampy 4-6 foot waves at El Fronton.
Lester required a third place finish or better in the Trials to secure his place on the 2012 IBA GSS Tour. In the final, Lester defeated Sergio Alonso (VEN) in second and fellow Australians Mitch Rawlins and Tom Rigby in third and fourth respectively, shifting him from 10th into second on the GQS.
"I just cannot believe it. It really hasn't sunk in yet...I'm just numb but excited", Lester elated.
When asked about his plans for 2012, Lester commented: "I'll have to start first working out my year. Definitely, I'll definitely need to start training. God, the thought of that is a bit daunting. I'll enjoy it now and worry about that in a couple weeks."
With the 2011 GQS complete the following eight GQS riders have cemented their places on the 2012 IBA GSS tour:
Alex Uranga (EUK)
Andrew Lester (AUS)
Chase O'Leary (AUS)
Sam Bennet (AUS)
Mitch Rawlins (AUS)
Yeray Martinez (CNY)
Roberto Bruno (BRA)
Thomas Rigby (AUS)
Round 1 of the GSS commenced shortly after the Trials final finished and was run to completion before the tide dropped too low, exposing the dangerous El Fronton reef.
Round 1 heat winners were:
Heat 1: Elliot Morales (CNY)
Heat 2: Guilherme Tamega (Copacabana / BRA)
Heat 3: Jared Houston (Cape Town / ZAF)
Heat 4: Jeff Hubbard (HAW)
Heat 5: Guillermo Cobo (Telde / ESP)

What a great wave to finish the tour on. I never thought anywhere would be better for crowning a champ than at Pipe. But Fronton is the perfect place to crown the boogie champ!
