Remembering Michael Peterson

We celebrate the life of the 3-time Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach champion.

For three straight years, Michael Peterson was unquestionably the greatest surfer in Australia. MP was the definition of perfection at his home break of Kirra in Queensland. He won a stack of domestic events around the country and had a strangle-hold on the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach title from 1973-75.

We were all saddened by the news of MP's passing this morning, but his surfing will never be forgotten and his name will forever remain etched on the Rip Curl Pro Bell.
