How come all the surfers from each country have their countries names and flags as the locality thet are representing, except those from Hawaii? Since 1950 (over 60 years) it has been a state of the USA — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.116.82.173 (talk) 16:11, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
Does anyone reply to the above????????????????? HELLO!!!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.21.65.169 (talk) 06:01, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
All surfers from Hawai'i compete under the Hawaiian flag, recognised as a seperate entity by the WSL. I can only assume this is due to the volume of surfers from Hawai'i and the importance of the state throughout surf history. With regards to merging the page with the Bell's Beach classic, I'd suggest the Bell's Beach classic page is instead removed as it's the same competition but simply a less well maintained page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jwillis50 (talk • contribs) 22:35, 29 October 2016 (UTC) Done
No longer mobile? Alternate locations?
[edit]"The event became mobile from 1993, and was held at various locations in Victoria, depending upon weather conditions. The entire 2005 event was held at Phillip Island due to poor conditions in Torquay. The event is now held only at Bells Beach and nearby Winkipop."
Is there a source for this? In particular the statement that it is no longer mobile?
I can't find a source that the "entire event" was held at Phillip Island either in 2005. A list of which years alternate locations were used would be good too..maybe even in the main table? 180.150.36.108 (talk) 20:32, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
