It\u2019s all-action all-day at The Ballito Pro presented by O\u2019Neill<\/a>: <\/p>\n

Running alongside one of the globe\u2019s biggest surfing contests, The Ballito Pro presented by O\u2019Neill, is the all-inclusive festival which provides holidaymakers with an expansive entertainment programme \u2013 all free of charge! Running at KwaDukuza from 27 June to 7 July, The Ballito Pro welcomes extreme sports\u2019 stars and non-stop beachside entertainment in one of the country\u2019s most stunning winter spots.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ballito Pro festival has been planned to maximise on the awesome North Coast setting with its chilled-out vibe and dynamic residents,\u201d explained Collette Bundy, festival organiser. \u201cVisitors can look forward to everything from extreme biking stunts and seaside contests to fantastic shopping options and food stalls \u2013 all while enjoying the sunny seaside weather!\u201d<\/p>\n

The Ballito Pro Festival extreme action programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Mini Ramp Skate Jams & MX Trials biking with Monster Energy’s Khule Ngubane & The Le Riche Brothers (4 to 7 July)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all about adrenaline-fuelled action as the unmissable Monster Energy activations get underway. There will be some incredible skateboarding going down in the form of Skate Jam sessions at the mini ramp with Khule Ngubane: \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to being back at the Ballito Pro – the vibe is always great there and I\u2019m stoked to shred the mini ramp with all up-and-coming groms!”<\/p>\n

This year the Ballito Pro also welcomes back two of the country\u2019s top stunt masters on two wheels \u2013 Trial bike stalwarts Bruce and Brent le Riche.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be performing our brand new pull out 3.7m-high undercut ledge!\u201d said Brent le Riche. \u201cThis is the biggest undercut step in the world! This trick demands extreme precision as there is zero margin for error \u2013 too little power and the back-wheel tucks under the ledge, turning this into a life-threatening situation very quickly. Attacking this step for the rider is also really difficult as they can\u2019t focus clearly on the impact area because of the extent of the pull out. This is a must-see, world-class stunt!\u201d<\/p>\n

– The KwaDukuza Municipality, in partnership with Ballito Footy U13-15, Football Activations (4 and 5 July)<\/p>\n

There will be some fun-filled beachside action taking place as local U13 and U15 teams go head-to-head in this quadrangular beach soccer tournament. The teams will consist of players from KP Projects \u2013 NPO partner of Footy – as well as members from SAFA KwaDukuza. The KP Projects squad will consist of the top 15 players per age group, selected from 10 loca,l under-privileged primary schools in the Ilembe district.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor some of these players it will be their first trip to the beach and they are even more excited to get to play the beautiful game at this venue,\u201d said Kyle Crichton of Footy Ballito.<\/p>\n

The tournament will run for two days \u2013 between 10am and 1pm \u2013 and is guaranteed to be action-packed beach soccer ideal for spectator support. There will also be a number of fun mini-tournaments and matches for the public including Dads & Lads, Moms& Daughters, family matches, age group tournaments, and more!<\/p>\n
