That was some Hawaiian leg. After the excitement of Pipeline, which saw two incredible wins from surfers at the polar opposite stages of their careers in Kelly Slater and Moana Jones Wong, Sunset Beach didn’t disappoint, with enormous, unruly conditions and a couple more surprise winners. Barron Mamiya and Brisa Hennessy both snagged their first …

It was always going to be difficult for the Hurley Pro at Sunset Beach to live up to the standard set by the first event of the season at Pipeline, but if you like underdog stories then it went pretty close. Huge, unruly conditions prevailed throughout the early stages of the event before giving way …
The Billabong Pro at Pipeline got the 2022 Championship Tour season off to a start which had to be seen to be believed, with 49-year-old Kelly Slater winning the men’s event and a little known local by the name of Moana Jones Wong winning the women’s in her first ever CT event. But there’s little …

It could hardly have been a more momentous start to the season had it literally been scripted. The event at Pipeline has been one of the most sought-after individual events on the men’s calendar for many years, and this year the women finally got the chance to join the party for the first time (albeit …
After more than four long months, the beginning of the Championship Tour season is finally here, and it all kicks off with one of the most entertaining events of the season. In what is a momentous occasion, both the men and the women will begin their respective years at Pipeline, one of the most intimidating …

The 2022 Championship Tour is finally upon us, and after a cancelled 2020 season and a shortened 2021, we’re set for a full slate of events. The male’s side of the draw looks set to once again be dominated by Brazilians, but there are plenty of capable surfers nipping at their heels, not least a …
The 2022 Championship Tour is finally upon us, and is set to be the first full year since 2019 after COVID-19 either ravaged or completely cancelled each of the last two. As it was last year, 2022 looks likely to see a whole lot of competition for spots, though the dominant Carissa Moore undoubtedly sits …
Surfing is still very much in the development stage in many parts of Africa. Large portions of the continent are a lot more difficult to access than what we’re used to in places like Australia, but with such a vast coastline there are clearly plenty of great waves littered across this part of the world. …
Europe isn’t typically renowned for its monster waves. The surfing scene there has plenty to offer, sure, but it probably isn’t viewed in the same way as places like North America or Australia in terms of the multitude of big waves that it serves up. There is, however, one exception; Nazaré. The scene of many …
Big waves capture the attention of the surfing public, and indeed the public generally, like few other sporting pursuits on the planet. The combination of conditions and geographical features which combine to create big waves occur around the world, but North America – in which we’ll include Hawaii – is one location in which we …
Kelly Slater has had an impact on surfing which rivals that of any sportsperson in history. In the water, of course, he has been the greatest surfer we’ve ever seen, putting together a ridiculous resumé which includes a completely absurd 11 world titles. Out of it, he’s had every big as significant an influence, enjoying long and successful partnerships with some of the biggest brands in surfing.
Big wave surfing is capable of capturing the imagination like few other sports in the world. To most people, the prospect of heading out to sea and trying to ride a wave many times your size is a thoroughly unpleasant one, bordering on flat out insane. But despite this, there is a dedicated community of …
