Andy Irons Wins!
Pictured: Andy Irons on top of the world after winning the Rip
Curl Pro Search WCT.
It was a sight many will never forget. Andy Irons lands a HUGE
aerial to win the event in fine style.
While Knox was solid throughout it was Andy's day as he strung
together some of the best turns seen this year.
Well done Andy!
We Searched and we found!
Long live Mexico and long live La Jolla!
WHERE ARE WE?
Rip Curl acquired the event’s unique Floating License from
the ASP. The License is made exclusively special by the fact that
we have the opportunity to take the tournament to a different
location every year. After running the inaugural Search WCT at
St. Leu in Reunion Island last year, our events team purchased
round the world tickets and went searching for a new location.
After plenty of ‘testing’, they began logistics on
relocating to ‘somewhere in Mexico’. Mexico boasts
a vast and exotic coastline and our Search has led us to a small
piece of paradise we will call home from June 20 to July1.
THE WAVE
The wave at La Jolla is a world-class right-hander and is an amazing
addition to the already strong Foster’s ASP Men’s
World Tour. It is a sand bottom point break, that can peel for
up to 200m. It feeds off south swells (which are prevalent in
June and July) and breaks consistently on high and low tides.
