About the Quiksilver Pro NY Guide: everything good in NYC and Long Beach, NY.

LONG BEACH, Long Island, NY (Sept. 9, 2011) – After four consecutive days of world class competition that drew 100,000 new fans to the beach, and a day of surfing that will go down in history, it can safely be said that everything went right at the inaugural $1million Quiksilver Pro New York Supported by vitaminwater. Owen Wright, the 21-year-old rookie from DownUnder took out 10-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater (USA) to write the sport’s greatest underdog tale: A kid from the Aussie sticks making it big in New York to take home a record $300,000 and move to No.2 in the world.   CLICK HERE TO READ MORE!

 

9/12 – Thanks to the community of Long Beach for welcoming the Quiksilver Pro NY.  We hope you all enjoyed our little city guide here – if you’re sticking around town for the next week and haven’t had a chance to make it into NYC, browse our categories to the right for fun stuff to do, see, eat, and drink.  

Hey everyone, welcome to the Quiksilver Pro NY guide, where we tell you about all things good.  And fun.  And cool.  And stuff.  We’ll be focusing on NYC and the Long Beach, NY area, and have plenty of comprehensible tags so you can search for whatever you want (just check out our Categories on the right hand side).

Everything here has been vetted or suggested by locals, so you can trust us when we say, um, “trust us.”  We’ve also included some insider tips from the natives when it comes to such uniquely NYC things as, “Why won’t this restaurant take my dinner reservation for two?” or “How come that cab had its light on but didn’t stop for me?”  And for you first-timers to the city, make sure to visit our sections on stuff like how to ride the subway and how to hail a cab.

We’re constantly updating the guide, so add us to your RSS feed and check back for new info!  We ❤ NY, and hope you do, too.

  1. Let’s get it on Long Beach! I’m a long time resident and am looking forward to a great event here! Seeing that I seem to be the first person to leave a comment here, I’d like to offer answers to any questions that you might have while you’re here or planning your trip to this event.

    I work in the music biz here in New York and have a unique knowledge to help make this once in a lifetime trip to our beautiful city a success! Rock the Eddy (hopefully, haha…)!!!Mahalo!

  2. Are tickets required to view the competition?

    How do I get my local Long Island band, The Dinner Party, into the event? They have actually performed live previously.
    Please advise.
    Thanks
