BELLS BEACH, Australia (Tuesday, Apr. 10, 2007) – Competitors in and organisers of the Rip Curl Pro presented by Snickers arrived at Bells Beach Australia at first light this morning to find small and unrideable waves for the second day in a row.
And with "surf spotters" all the way up and down the coast on the lookout for the best conditions available, it was decided by Contest Director and former two time World Champion Damien Hardman that the event, stop two on the Foster's ASP World Tour, will once again pack up shop and head back down along the scenic Great Ocean Road to yesterday's venue of Johanna.
Ben Matson from www.swellnet.com.au indicated similar conditions to those of yesterday where fun head high beach break peaks greeted the competitors.
It is hoped that the first heat of the day (HEAT 7 of ROUND THREE) will get underway at 9am local time.
