A new Anti-Doping Policy has been confirmed by the Association of Surfing Professionals and will be activated for 2012 ASP World Title season. "This policy represents a consensus between our surfers, events and administrators in evolving the sport of surfing to a more professional level," Richard Grellman, ASP Executive Chairman, said. "The desire to initiate this kind of policy has existed within ASP for several years now and with the approval of resource and budget allocation at the November 2011 Board Meeting, we are pleased to announce its activation. We believe this to be an important further step in enhancing professional surfing." "The men strongly support the implementation of the ASP Anti-Doping policy," Kieren Perrow, ASP Top 34 competitor and surfers’ representative, said. "It is a positive step which enhances the professionalism of competitive surfing and sends a great message to the kids out there who look up to us as role models."
