Biography:
Marc Lacomare, a multiple French junior champion, has been a mainstay on the European and junior contest circuits for the last few years. The 19-year-old clinched his maiden ASP European Pro Junior title in September '09 in the Canaries. Other notable competition highlights include third place at the World Junior Championships in Narrabeen (January 2009), runner-up at the inaugural Oakley Global Challenge in Bali (October 2008), two victories at Pro Junior events in 2009 (Hossegor and Estoril), and ISA European Junior Champion 2008.
Lacomare has one year (2010) on the Pro Junior circuit left, but will concentrate more on the big leagues. “I already did a couple of World Qualifying Series (WQS) contests this year to work on my seeding for 2010. I will hit the WQS full time next year, but my eyes are also firmly fixed on the World Junior Champs in Narrabeen and the Oakley Global Challenge.”
In addition to DC Footwear and Apparel, Lacomare is sponsored by Oakley, Monster Energy, Channel Islands Surfboards, FCS and Bidonvilla Sushibar.
