Tuesday the 6th of April 2010 was a Historic Day for 13th Beach, it was the first time the Main Event of the Rip Curl Pro moved to the friendly waters of 13th Beach. Last time they had the trials at 13th in 1979, As they completed round 2 of the Rip Curl Pro, it was a great Day for Locals and Competitors, showing off the potential 13th can throw.

Event No. 2 of 10 on the 2010 ASP World Tour, the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach completed round 2 this Tuesday @ Thirteenth Beach saw the greatest assemblage of surfing talent in history light up the punchy two-to-four foot beachbreaks.

One of the Best heats of the day was a heat between Chris Davidson (AUS), 34 and compatriot Jay Thompson (AUS), 27. Davidson’s forehand attack saw no parallel in terms of speed and ferocity as he bested Thompson 16.13 to 16.10.

“The waves start pumping for our heat and it’s a shame as Bottle (Jay Thompson) was surfing so well,” Davidson said. “He probably would have won any other heat, but that’s the tour, sometimes you just have those heats. I’m feeling good though. I feel healthy and I’m looking forward to the rest of the event.”

It was also a great opportunity for 13th Boardriders, as event oganisers allowed 13th to run a BBQ for all spectators and Surfers, the BBQ rasied over $1500- for the club, 13th would just love to thank everyone who helped out on the day, running the BBQ, selling the food and drinks, and the runners who had to buy out most of the local supermarkets food and supplies.

It was also a great opportunity for our Grommets to Caddy for the Professional surfers, all grommies where frothing being able to the hero’s surfboards, in the likes of Past World Champion Cj Hobgood to Local Hero Adam Robertson.
