The 2010 Soldiers Beach Pro presented by Beachin’ Surf will be the 2nd event on the 2010 IBA World Men’s Tour and will also be dual sanctioned as an IBA Australian Rebel Sport Pro Tour 5 Star event. The event will also be coupled with round 1 of the NSW State titles so the week will see some 300 competitors taking to the waters off Soldiers Beach.

Amaury Lavernhe of Reunion Island will be one of the stars that will attend the event and is coming off a win at the Banzai Pipeline in Hawaii in the first Grand Slam of the season. "I am so stoked, I still can't believe it" said Lavernhe of his win at Pipe. "I really am looking forward to competing at Soldiers Beach". Laverhne finished 2nd in the 2008 World Tour ratings behind Ben Player so a world title is in his sights for 2010.
