This was their most successful event with the paddle race in the 17 years it’s been running. Congratulations to everyone who were involved. Check out the video HERE!

A global series for the best young surfers around the world to showcase their talentThe Rip Curl GromSearch is a worldwide series of events designed specifically for grommets. Uniformed across the Globe, the events give groms the center stage to show the world the progression of the sport.

The Rip Curl GromSearch National Finals has sent incredible surfers to compete at Bells each year including Mason Ho, Tyler Newton, Kolohe Andino, Malia Manuel, Nat Young, and Nage Melamed.
The first-ever Rip Curl GromSearch was held at Jan Juc, Torquay, Australia in 1999. This led to the creation of a National series including Europe, the United States, Brazil, South Africa, Indonesia, and New Zealand.
Stephanie Gilmore and Matt Wilkinson won the first International Final in 2004. Mason Ho beat Jordy Smith to become the first non-Australian Rip Curl GromSearch Champion in 2005.
