Current world number one surfer Joel Parkinson and 1999 World Champion Mark Occhilupo got to taste what many visting surfers miss on their travels to New Zealand – a solid East Coast swell. Corona took NZ Greenroom Productions along to film their Kiwi experience.

Day one we surfed the famous Whangamata Bar sampling long lefthanders where Occy stole the show. Then it was a quick flight to Gisborne where we were rewarded with a perfect finale to these Corona Surf Trip. The pair enjoyed solid 1.5m waves at Wainui Beach.
