Red Bull Cape Fear is Back
0
The heaviest slab in Tasmania is about to host Red Bull Cape Fear, its first-ever live broadcast big wave surfing event. This is a modal window. This modal can be closed by pressing the Escape key or activating the close button. Red Bull Cape Fear, the one-of-a-kind, invitation-only surfing competition, is back for another epic year of big waves and even bigger moments. Only this year, it’s going mobile – to Shipstern Bluff, Tasmania’s home of slab surfing. The event waiting period opens on August 1, 2018, and will run through to the end of December, allowing for five months to score the best swell of the year in Tasmania. Surfed for the first time in the early 2000s, this will be the first-ever live broadcast event held at the heaving cold-water slab, and the challenge will be unlike any other. Shipstern Bluff will play host to 20 of the best big wave surfers in the world, from international professionals and underground Tasmanian chargers, all brave enough to take on one of the most feared waves in the world.
