Turbo Bodyboards is the naming rights sponsor for the first event on this years IBA World Men's Tour (WMT).

Turbo have recently signed up some big names to the label and are on a Global assault with the product now being licensed Worldwide, so the Pipe event will be the perfect promotional vehicle for them to raise Global awareness.
