Red Bull Big Wave South Africa 2007

Red Bull Big Wave Africa will make Dungeons thunder in Cape Town's Hout Bay


Dates for the Red Bull Big Wave Africa at dungeons in Cape Town's Hout Bay will be finalised shortly. The concept will remain the same as last year - 3 month waiting period and a 48 hour amber call.

The local surfers consist of former event
champ Sean Holmes from Wilderness, Grant 'Twiggy' Baker who hails from Durban and who won the Mavericks Big Wave Event in 2006, and last year's winner John Whittle, also from Durban. They will be joined by the likes of Durban's Jason Ribbink, Andrew Marr who came second in last year's event and Cape big wave stalwart Mickey Duffus. This year also sees Ian Armstrong back in the field after a few years absence and Simon Lowe debuting for the first time.

On the international side some new faces and some old friends are going to be in attendance, including evergreen Californian Grant Washburn and Jamie Sterling from Hawaii. Former event winner Greg Long from California and Brazilian die-hard Carlos Burle will be back, as will former Quiksilver Eddie Aikau Big Wave Event winner Ross Clarke-Jones from Australia and three time Mavericks event winner Darryl 'Flea' Virostko from California. Big wave Chilean surfer Ramon Navarro will be in attendance for the first time this year, as will be Peter Mel from California.


Red Bull Big Wave Africa is looking at opening the three month window period in June and closing it in August 2007. The Athlete invitations have not gone out as yet but we will keep you posted on any developments on the highly anticipated Red Bull Big Wave Africa Event for 2007.
