Red Bull Cape Fear is back! This unique, invitation-only big wave surfing event returns in 2015, to be held at one of the world’s most challenging and dangerous waves located in Sydney, Australia.

Cape Fear is a daunting surf break that many wouldn’t dare to try. The event will feature 16 of the world’s top ‘slab’ riding specialists, who dedicate their lives to finding and riding the biggest waves around the world.

In order to host the event with the optimal surf conditions, the waiting period will be held for three months, from 5 May to 1 August 2015.

Big wave surfer, Contest Director and the brains behind the event, Mark Mathews said “Pound for pound, Cape Fear is the heaviest and most dangerous wave in the world. The last few winters have been slow to say the least. We are definitely overdue for a massive swell. With a bit of luck 2015 will dish up the biggest Red Bull Cape Fear event ever!”

Red Bull Cape Fear employs a unique, overlapping heat format. The 16 surfers compete in eight designated head-to-head battles in a thrilling wave arena combining paddle and tow-in surfing. This battle style format is used to maximize the short waiting period and potential peak in a large swell and will give viewers the chance to witness epic contests.

Of the eight battle winners, the top four scoring surfers will progress to the semi-final, then final, resulting in the overall Red Bull Cape Fear champion for 2015.

The event site for Red Bull Cape Fear will be closed to spectators, however the event will be broadcast LIVE and free at redbull.tv. The adjoining headland is in a National Park and the area cannot safely accommodate spectators, and large crowds could also potentially damage the environment. Given this, no spectators will be permitted at the Yena picnic area. All other areas of the National Park will remain open for visitors.
