The waiting period for the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal is officially on. Over the past week, the world’s top ‘CTers have been scoring A-grade warm-up sessions, with Supertubos morphing into a playground of hollow cylinders. The pre-event footage below, filmed by Peyton Willard, showcases Nic Von Rupp, Connor O Leary, Ryan Callinan, and more getting their feet in the wax before the first horn.
The forecast for the initial part of the event doesn’t look as stellar (as often happens with these things) as the above, but things should be shaping up for the weekend. Keep your eyes peeled on the forecast and make any last-minute changes to your Fantasy Surfer team here.
