Round Two and Three wrapped up today in rippable four foot walls at Bells and Winkipop.

Monday, 13 April 2009
Parko surfed amazing, Bells was firing, but all anyone cares about is Owen Wright knocking Kelly Slater out of the event.

As usually happens when the ASL team hits Bells, it has been flat and cold, and only offshore at the pub. And, as per usual, we invite the best surfers in the world, a few captains of industry, and a small handful of lucky freeloaders to our annual Peer Poll award night.

Day Three Bells // Lay-Day

Wednesday, 08 April 2009
The swell has backed off and so has the wind. Major bummer. Surface conditions are super smooth but the one and a half foot wonders lack shape and power. That’s usually the case isn’t it? There are plenty of things to do in Torquay when it’s flat.
The surf wasn’t pumping today. In fact it was down right sad. The girls were sent out just after the high tide, so Rincon was the only option for something scratchable.

First day of the Rip Curl Pro at Bells and they ain’t wasting any time. The action kicked off at 9.30am with the first heat of the first event in recent history to run do or die heats from Round One.
