With the CT stop #2 wrapped, and the top tier of pro surf currently making their hasty dash across to Bells Beach, let us take this short transitionary window to reflect. It won’t be long until images of throating Box, ramping North Point and towering Main Break are replaced with the classic (and sometimes a little soft) walls of Bells. Lensman Tyler Bell was in tow with the )( squad, he lined up everything he captured from John, Kolohe, Julian Wilson, Nat Young, Adrian Buchan and Filipe Toledo’s time in the west, laid over a King Gizzard number and bounced out the above for your enjoyment. Dive in and take a look at how the event’s most deadly prepped for success.
