The Rip Curl GromSearch is a worldwide series of events designed especially for grommets. From Australia to America it gives groms the centre stage to show everyone what they've got.

The GromSearch series is all about getting male and female surfers down the beach with their friends to surf in a relaxed and fun environment and at the same time it gives grommets the competitive experience needed for further development in their surfing careers.

GromSearch provides its participants with a countrywide ratings system, at least two surfs and will be hitting the shores of four states across Australia in 2012.

Progression to the National final......The male and female winners (16 and under boys and girls divisions) of each event receive an invite to the National final held on the final day of the Queensland event in December.The winners of the National final will represent Australia at the International GromSearch final held during the 2013 Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach.
