Bells: The Beach, The Surfers, The Contest
The Bells: The Beach, The Surfers, The Contest is more than a great story about the world's longest running board riding event. A contest taht began as a rally half a century ago and became the Rip Curl Pro. It is the story os collection of fearless pioneers who found this iconic big-wave beach and made it their own. It is the tale of Australian surfing, from its amateur roots, through the rebellious 1960s and the country soul era of the early 1970s to the professionalism of today, from a tiny cottage industry that became a global empire. They are people who surfs at Bells especially those who make the Annual Easter pilgrimage and compete for the most coveted trophy on the world tour. Bells celebrates the 50-year history of the world's longest-running surfing contest and the story of one of Australia's most iconic beaches, and draws on interviews with surfers including Wayne Lynch, Midget Farrelly, Nat Young, Terry Fitzgerald, Michael Petersen, Gail Couper, Mark Richards, Simon Anderson, Cheyne Horan, Tom Curren, Tom Carroll, Sunny Garcia, Mark Occhiluppo, Andy Irons, Layne Beachley, Mick Fanning, Taj Burrow, Joel Parkinson, Stephanie Gilmore and Kelly Slater.
