The Women Return | 2019 Rip Curl Pro Portugal

Deep dive into the return of the women to Supertubos in 2019, exactly one decade after the original Rip Curl Search event.

It’s been almost a decade since the world’s best female surfers competed in a Championship Tour event at Supertubos. In 2009, both women and men were introduced to Peniche, Portugal, with the iconic Rip Curl Search event.

In 2019 the World Surf League and Rip Curl are proud to announce the return of the women to Supertubos. An opportunity to put the world’s best female surfers in challenging and critical surf –an opportunity for World Titles to be won in heaving, spitting barrels –and opportunity to continue to push the progression of female surfing and showcase the talent and bravery that runs through the Women’s World Tour.
