After Peru's Sofia Mulanovich won the Roxy Pro event on Australia's Gold Coast, Coolangatta, the world's finest top 17 female surfers are arriving for the second stop of the 2008 ASP Women's World Tour - the Rip Curl Pro Bell's Beach from March 19 to 24.
Local lady and Rip Curl rider Stephanie 'Happy' Gilmore, current ASP Women's World Tour Champion, is currently the favourite to win - despite being ousted by Hawaiian Trials Winner Carissa Moore in the opening round of Event One, despite explosive surfing. But she'll have to face fellow young 'uns Silvana Lima, Jessi Miley-Dyer and Karina Petroni. With a six day window for the comp, organisers are hoping to award the winner with the Bell trophy on Easter weekend.
To keep up with the latest on the Rip Curl Pro Bell's Beach log on to the official ASP site- we'll have regular round ups on Nollie too!
