Globe is stoked to announce the return of the Globe Pro Fiji to the ASP Men's World Tour this May. The 4th stop on the tour is in again in Fiji, following a hiatus in 2007 due to circumstances beyond our control. Yep, defending event champion Damien Hobgood, Taj, CJ, Kelly, Mick, Parko, Pancho and the rest of the top 45 will pull on their competition jerseys once again to compete in the perfect lefts of Cloudbreak and/or Restaurants.

The planning phase for the third installment of the Globe Pro Fiji is well underway, and as you've come to expect, the webcast will be a new level of entertainment, personality and nostalgia. Nostalgia, you ask? Don't worry about it, you'll find out soon enough.

The excitement for this year's tour is unlike any other. With two exciting new rookies Jordy Smith and Dane Reynolds giving the veterans a run for their money, Fiji is the ideal location for the world to see their highly touted talents step up to the World Tour level. World Champion Mick Fanning will be out to retain his first world title, both for himself and for the continent of Australia. Kelly Slater will be looking to get the world title back, what could be his 9th.
