GOLD COAST, QLD; Three of the best freeriders to ever grace a ski will be attending the Yamaha/Monster Energy Australian Freeride Open this coming February (20th), Main Beach - Gold Coast.
The first of the big three is last years champion, Frenchman Pierre Maixent who will be returning to defend his title on the Gold Coast, the next attendee is Taylor Curtis from the US who has some of the best surf riding skills around and the third is far and away the most successful freestyle personal watercraft competitor in history in Eric Malone
“We are super pumped to have these three guys who are at the top of the pile in freeriding attending the event, it gives the event a true top international field”.

Organisers of the Australian Motorcycle Expo, Australian Personal Watercraft Show & Australian Scooter Festival on the Gold Coast are set to build upon a very successful first showing with an even bigger range of exhibitors and features at the 2010 event to be held from February 19-21.
Last year’s event attracted over 22,000 visitors from all over the country and this year is expected to be bigger yet, taking its place as the largest exhibition to be held at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.
"It was great to see people from all over the country making their way to the Gold Coast for a great weekend of motorcycle, scooter and jetski entertainment," said Event Manager Mark Petersen.
"As well as providing enthusiasts the chance to check out the newest and most exciting products, it also gives the local area a boost with thousands visiting the region each day."
Exciting new models and range updates from the major manufacturers will make for the most comprehensive two-wheel showroom in the country for those in the market for their first bike, PWC or scooter, or simply looking to upgrade.
Aftermarket products, apparel and related services from close to 100 exhibitors will compliment the display of over 10,000 square metres.
"If you're in the market for a new motorcycle, scooter, ATV, chopper or jetski, there is expected to be great show specials from many of the major manufacturers," he continued.
Live action demonstrations will add to the excitement, included as part of the ticket price.
Two-wheel enthusiasts can catch shows from the country's leading freestyle motocross and mini bike riders while PWC fans will delight in seeing an amazing display of freestyle action from riders on stand-up jet skis.
The Australian Freeride Surf Championship will be held in conjunction with the event, with up to 20 of the world's leading jetski riders doing battle at Main Beach. Winners will be announced in a special presentation at the Australian Motorcycle Expo Gold Coast on Saturday February 20.
The Australian Motorcycle Expo Gold Coast is proudly sponsored by QBE Insurance.

For decades Tipplers was an iconic boating destination and a part of the old Gold Coast lifestyle until the Gold Coast Council wasted millions of dollars of ratepayers money by making what some have described as the worst decision ever by the Council.
No longer is Tipplers the place where hundreds of boaties would congregate and enjoy a family day where all were equal - regardless of whether they had arrived on a tinnie or a luxury yacht.
We want Tipplers back!
Please join our flotilla on Australia Day (Tuesday 26th January 2010) in support of the Marine Action Group's campaign to get Tipplers back.
Please come by boat, tinnie or jet ski with your placard, banner or flag and meet at the Paradise Point foreshore at 11:00 AM.
The flotilla will leave at 11:30 AM and travel slowly around the Sovereign Islands, past Wave Break Island, the Seaway, The Spit and the Southport parklands.
For radio communication on the day, please go to VHF Channel 72.
Charter boat Top Cruise Rani will lead the flotilla - this will be coordinated by Jim McLaughlin mobile no.: 0447 140 060 - if you need a core flute or some help with a banner, please feel free to call Jim.
Updates to the day's program will be posted on our website: www.marineactiongroup.com
