Bells Beach Billy
Born near Victoria’s legendary Bells Beach, Billy grew up watching some of the world’s best surfers take on its powerful waves. He started surfing in the chilly Southern Ocean and quickly developed a fearless approach to big, challenging conditions. Billy loves the sound of the famous Bells trophy, but believes the best reward is sharing an unforgettable wave with your mates. When the surf is flat, he searches the coastline for new breaks and keeps a close watch on the next swell.
Mantra: “Cold water, big waves—bring it on!”
Home Break: Bells Beach—“The cliffs, the crowds and those powerful Southern Ocean swells make it feel like nowhere else.”
Fave Surf Spot: Bells Beach, Winkipop and Jan Juc
Bust Out Move: A deep bottom turn into a huge carving cutback—“You need plenty of speed when Bells starts pumping!”
Fuels up on: Meat pies, Vegemite toast and hot chocolate after a cold morning surf
Best Surf Memory: “Riding a long, powerful wave at Bells while my mates cheered from the cliffs.”
Best Beach Buds: Newport Naomi, Noosa Noah, Snapper Rocks Sophie, Tofino Rex and Jaws Justice
When Not Surfing: Studying weather maps, exploring the Great Ocean Road and waiting for the next Southern Ocean swell
Advice for groms: “Respect the ocean, listen to the locals and never be afraid of a little cold water!”
