GEORGE NEWS - With just one day to go until the Rip Curl Vic Bay Surf Pro QS 2 000 and Rip Curl Vic Bay Surf Pro Junior, the forecast is looking great for three days of high-performance surfing at one of South Africa's most iconic point breaks.
Current forecasts indicate consistent surf in the two-to-three-foot range throughout the event window from Friday to Sunday, 19 to 21 June, accompanied by light and variable winds.
While not expected to be a giant swell event, the conditions look ideally suited to showcase the best surfers in the country, along with the international entries.
For seasoned competitors, Victoria Bay's long, mechanical right-hander often produces some of its best surfing when conditions are clean rather than oversized.
The forecast is expected to provide plenty of opportunity for surfers to demonstrate the kind of speed, power, flow and high-risk surfing that judges reward.
Should surf heights drop significantly, nearby Herolds Bay remains available as a backup venue.
