The event has a large number of local guests, with fewer CTs, which opened the field for surfers like Marco Giorgi and Nathan Hedge, among other surfers.

Of the CT members who managed to make it into the mid-year cut, practically none are seen.

Below are all the round 1 series.

The event is expected to start on the 17th in Australia, the 16th for most Latin American countries.
