The Hawaiian leg of the 2023 Championship Tour is now complete, with both Jack Robinson and Filipe Toledo saluting at the Billabong Pro Pipeline and Hurley Pro Sunset Beach respectively as they begin their hunt for this year’s world title. Now, we head to Europe. This is the second event in the first three of …
Pipeline didn’t quite live up to our very lofty expectations to kick off the season, but with improved conditions at Sunset Beach we saw some more entertaining competition at the women’s Hurley Pro – albeit still not at the level this wave is capable of producing. Still, there were plenty of talking points to arise …
After an underwhelming beginning to the year at the Billabong Pro at Pipeline, the forecast looked a little better – albeit still not fantastic – for the men’s Hurley Pro Sunset Beach. And that’s how it turned out, with solid conditions prevailing throughout much of the event window. A few big scores at the tail …
Conditions at the season-opening Billabong Pro didn’t make it particularly easy for anyone to show what they are capable at Pipeline at just the second full women’s CT event there in history, but nonetheless we ended up with a final which may well be an indication of signs to come this year. Carissa Moore and …
After the season started in underwhelming fashion at Pipeline, the Championship Tour now heads to Sunset Beach for the Hurley Pro with only a couple of days to catch our breath. Fortunately, after a slow first couple of days of the event window conditions are looking a lot better for this contest than the Billabong …
The Women’s Billabong Pro Pipeline returned for just its second edition, kicking off the 2023 Championship Tour in conditions which were a long way from Pipe at its best. Scores throughout were subsequently quite low and the contest won’t exactly be remembered as one for the ages, but nonetheless 10,000 points were on offer and …
The Billabong Pro Pipeline kicked off the Championship Tour for the third time this year, but while anticipation for the event was high, the waves failed to deliver to near the standard of which we know they are capable. The pumping, heavy Pipe which is, in the eyes of many, the best wave in the …
Just a couple of short years ago, the women’s Championship Tour had never been to Pipeline, but that all changed when their 2021 Maui Pro was moved there from Pipeline partway through the contest. After the success of that event – or the end of it – the 2022 season started with the first ever …
The first event of the season is upon us, and for the third successive year it will kick off at one of the finest waves on the planet. The Billabong Pipeline Masters is one of the most highly anticipated events of every season wherever it is on the calendar, and this year is no different. …
The 2022 Men’s Championship Tour saw Filipe Toledo finally earn his maiden world title, but he did so in the absence of Gabriel Medina and John John Florence. This year, he won’t have that luxury, though he will nonetheless be a major contender. Those three round out the favourites, but the current quality at the …
The 2023 World Surf League is almost upon us, with the Championship Tour set to begin with the Billabong Pro Pipeline on the 29th of January. The women’s side of the tour will likely see the usual suspects competing at the pointy end of the season, but there isn’t a great deal separating them. With …
A few short years ago, the sight of a surfer carrying a softboard under their arm was typically an indication of someone very much in the early stages of their surfing life. Today, however, that’s far from the case. Some softboards remain great crafts for beginners, but these boards now come in such a wide …
Softboards have for many years been a popular choice of craft for beginners, and though they’re becoming increasingly common under the feet of more advanced surfers, they remain a hit with those a little less comfortable in the water. They’re buoyant, easy to paddle with, and easy to catch waves with, while there’s also the …
With summer fast approaching, it’s just about time to dust the cobwebs off the mini mals and longboards which have been sitting in the shed over the colder months. The thruster fins that have tided you over during the winter swells won’t do you a whole lot of good in the softer summer surf, and …
