into the main event of the Rip Curl Pro Mademoiselle. The spot will put you the youngster in Round 1 against the event’s Top Seed.

THE BEST SURF TANDEM COUPLES IN HOSSEGOR/SEIGNOSSE!
From August 25 to 27, Tandem Surfing will step into the spotlight at the Rip Curl Pro Mademoiselle.
The event will host one of the 15 stages of the World Tandem Tour (WTT ).
Born in 1920 at Hawaii’s famous Waikiki beach, this discipline was recognized by the FFS (French Surfing Federation) in 2003 and the creation of the International Tandem Surfing Association (ITSA) followed in 2006.
As aesthetically pleasing as it is spectacular, tandem surfing is finally being recognized as a real sport. The Rip Curl Pro Mademoiselle is proud to have the world’s best tandem couples compete in the powerful waves of the Landaise coast!
