Entries have now opened for the 2022/23 Victorian Open Series with the first stop on the three part series to be held at Bells Beach / Djarrk on Wadawurrung Country.
The series is the pathway event to the Rip Curl Pro Victorian Trials, giving one Victorian a spot in the main event at the Rip Curl Pro.
“The Victorian Open Series is an integral part of our development pathway” said Surfing Victoria CEO Adam Robertson.
“Many Victorian surfers who have gone on to the Championship Tour and Qualifying Series have gone through the Victorian Open Series. It is an incredible stepping stone for surfers to progress and make it to the next level.”
