Last year the South Africa Parliament passed a resolution congratulating the organisers of the Billabong Pro J-Bay on their efforts in making environmental conservation a top priority and this year Billabong is again partnering with Cleaner Climate to implement a raft of sustainable practices to decrease the carbon footprint and minimize the environmental impact of the event.

The billabongpro.com website features heaps of content including background information, news, photos and videos and will provide LIVE coverage of the all the action during the event with multiple camera angles, slow motion replays, up to the second scoring, commentary in English and Portuguese, email messages to the commentators, interactive competitions and video-on-demand highlights of previous heats.
