MILO® Hosts First and Largest Surf Skate Championship and 2-Day Family Fun Fair

To ensure my Little Angels celebrate Malaysia Day on 16th September 2023 in a meaningful manner, I brought them to the MILO event since MILO® had hosted the first and largest surf skate championship and a 2-day family fun fair at Putrajaya Challenge Park. This exemplifies MILO®’s unwavering dedication to championing sports and wellness through its #MalaysiaBolehBersamaMILO campaign, which has made a significant impact within the surf skate industry in Malaysia.

MILO® is widely loved by Malaysians, young and old alike and a must-have for breakfast to ensure my 5 Little Angels stay healthy always. MILO® has always been an enabler in sports and wellness, committed to unlocking the potential of Malaysians and fueling them with the energy to go further, try new things, and create new breakthroughs. This year, MILO® brought together a community of surf skaters by hosting its first and largest Surf Skate Championship in partnership with Wavvy Hub Surf Skate Club. The event received a large turnout of passionate surf skate individuals who travelled from across the country and the Asia Pacific region to compete in the two-day event. Participants were filled with energy and enthusiasm as they showcased their unique surf skate skills and techniques until the final stage.

The Surf Skate Championship had a total prize pool worth over RM40,000, divided into four categories: Men’s and Women’s Open (Cup), Men’s and Women’s Open (Plate), Men’s and Women’s Open (Cup), Kids, and Special Categories. The grand prize winners, Muhamad Nor Afiq Haikal and Faye Tan from Malaysia, of the Men’s and Women’s Open (Cup) category walked away with RM3,000 cash prize each and other sponsor merchandise such as one year of free entry to Wavvy Hub, one ticket to a 3D2N Surf Perhentian, one complete set of YOW Performance Board, an RM500 Rip Curl Cash Voucher, and a one-year ambassador contract with Chillax (Cariuma) with two pairs of Cariuma.

While champions of the Men’s and Women’s Open (Plate) Sorrawit Jinyong from Thailand and Cmylia Lai from Malaysia brought home RM400 worth of Rip Curl cash vouchers and other sponsor prizes. Meanwhile, the champion of the Kids Category, Mohd Irfan Naufal bin Kasa from Malaysia, walked home with a complete set of YOW Board, 3 months FREE Park Entry to Wavvy Hub, and a RM 200 Rip Curl Voucher. The winners of the Special Categories, including Best Flow, Best Newcomer, and Best Wipeout, Sorrawit Jinyong from Thailand, Kimi Lim from Malaysia, and Strala from Singapore each received YOW Surf Wheels, YOW Surf Deck, and a Safety Helmet, respectively. Congrats to all the winners!!!

Ms Ng Su Yen, Business Executive Officer of MILO®, Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad, who was presented on that day, expressed that they always believe in learning through sports, which is a crucial step for children during early development. Whether it’s surf skating, badminton, football, or any grassroots sport, these activities nurture skills, perseverance, and self-confidence, which will eventually translate into values like communication, teamwork, and responsibility. They're grateful for the overwhelming support from the surf skate community, partners, sponsors and attendees who have made this event a huge success. Reflecting on MILO®'s journey in Malaysia, the 'Malaysia Boleh' slogan was first coined in 1992 in support of the 1993 SEA Games. This slogan still resonates strongly today as a symbol of our unity as Malaysians, and she hope this motivates all of us to continuously strive for excellence and leave a mark in history. Jom #MalaysiaBolehBersamaMILO.”

Thanks to MILO® for organising such a great event. My Little Angels got to learned the way of skating from the professional coaches who were station there to help beginners and we got to watch those skaters performed smoothly to join the competition to win prizes. Since it is a family-event, all of us could joined the games and won some limited edition MILO mugs, cans of Milo drinks and MILO ice cream too. Yummy...
