Event guide:

The 2019/20 Victorian Open Series will crown the Victorian Open Champions in both Men’s and Women’s divisions. The series will head to three locations starting at Bells Beach before heading to the Mornington Peninsula and finishing on Phillip Island. The series is the key selection pathway for the Rip Curl Pro trials and the Victorian Surfing Team that competes at the Australian Surf Championships.

Overall series winners will be based on competitors' best two-of-three results. It is highly recommended to compete in at least two events. In the event of a tie in the ratings, surfers will be split by their third result. In the unlikely event of a tie on the third result, the surfers who remain tied will compete in a 'surf off' if both surfers are present. If after these measures the ratings are still tied, surfers will be awarded dual state titles.

Communication to surfers will be via SMS and Email. Please ensure these are both correct when entering. Heat Draws will be distributed on the Thursday afternoon before the event.

The Victorian Open Series is proudly supported by Coastalwatch, Surfing World Magazine, Ramada Resort Phillip Island, Kings Cars, Cancer Council Sunscreen and City to Surf Mobile Café.
