Rip Curl Pro Search 2010 en Puerto Rico!

It has been decided! Middles in Isabela Puerto Rico is going to be THE spot for the Rip Curl Pro Search 2010. El Nuevo Dia, a local Puerto Rican publication has just announced that the "Somewhere in Puerto Rico" tag line of the contest is in fact on the north western side of the island. This means huge tourism, super amazing athletes, parties galore, and wave riding like most of us have never seen!

Although the exact date hasn't been set, this time of year is getting everyone excited for what will kick off the wave season right! "The time of year is (ideal) for this event because we know that there is a 'swell' (marejada, in Spanish) which is going to help the waves become bigger and better," said Jose 'Nono' Sierra, Rip Curl representative in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean, and organizer of the championship.
If you were on the fence deciding whether or not to travel to PR for the contest, now you know it can't be missed. Middles is one of the most challenging and exciting waves in Puerto Rico, and the event will be phenomenal. From Coors light parties, the Halloween extravaganza, and a chance to see the worlds best surfers make their mark on the caribbean, the people of Puerto Rico are stoked.

Rincon, Puerto Rico is only 30 mins. south and perfect for shacking up early while waiting for the best surf conditions. Why not stay that whole two weeks and make an adventure out of it? 
October 30th-Nov. 10th are the official black out dates for the contest, while officials wait to choose the best days, kick back, drink a medalla, and surf the whole western coast of PR.
