\n\tHUNTINGTON BEACH, California\/USA (Tuesday, November 15, 2011) – <\/strong>ASP International has released its 2012 World Tour schedule today, outlining the respective ASP World Title, ASP World Junior, ASP World Longboard, ASP Masters, ASP Prime and ASP Star tours for the year ahead:<\/p>\n

\n\t2012 ASP World Title Series:<\/strong>
\n\tQuiksilver Pro Gold Coast – Australia (February 25 – March 7, 2012)
\n\tRip Curl Pro Bells Beach – Australia (April 3 – 14, 2012)
\n\tBillabong Rio Pro – Brazil (May 9 – 20, 2012)
\n\tVolcom Pro Fiji – Fiji (June 3 – 16, 2012)
\n\tBillabong Pro Jeffreys Bay – South Africa (July 11 – 22, 2012)
\n\tBillabong Pro Teahupoo – Tahiti (August 16 – 27, 2012)
\n\tQuiksilver Pro New York – USA (September 2 – 14, 2012)
\n\tHurley Pro at Trestles – USA (September 15 – 23, 2012)
\n\tQuiksilver Pro France – France (September 26 – October 6, 2012)
\n\tRip Curl Pro Portugal – Portugal (October 7 – 17, 2012)
\n\tBillabong Pipe Masters – Hawaii (December 8 – 20, 2012)<\/p>\n

\n\tNotably absent from the 2012 ASP World Title Series schedule is the Rip Curl Pro Search, but the event will return in 2013.<\/p>\n

\n\t“We are taking a year off from the front line of running the event and putting a solid 18 months into the planning of the 2013 Rip Curl Pro Search. To take the Search to the next level is always the goal. We do that every year, but following San Francisco and the twist it delivered to the surfing world we feel we need more time and care to really blow minds,” said Rip Curl’s Neil Ridgway. “Throughout the history of the Rip Curl Pro Search we have had everything from ASP world titles to underworld rip offs, terrorist alerts to perfect tubes, great personal and professional difficulty and epic celebration parties. This event more than any other combines the discipline of professional sport with the traveling lifestyle and freedom surfers love. It needs to be nurtured so it grows better than ever. A year tending to it in planning is the right way to develop it.”<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2012 ASP Women’s World Title Series sees the return of the core seven events from this season, and the ASP will be diligently working on adding events before the start of the season in February.<\/p>\n

\n\t2012 ASP Women’s World Title Series:<\/strong>
\n\tRoxy Pro Gold Coast – Australia (February 25 – March 7, 2012)
\n\tRip Curl Women’s Pro Bells Beach – Australia (April 3 – 9, 2012)
\n\tSubaru Pro Women’s Surf Festival – New Zealand (April 11 – 15, 2012)
\n\tCommonwealth Bank Beachley Classic – Australia (April 18 – 23, 2012)
\n\tBillabong Rio Pro – Brazil (May 9 – 20, 2012)
\n\tRoxy Pro Biarritz – France (July 9 – 15, 2012)
\n\tNike US Open of Surfing – USA (July 30 – August 5, 2012)<\/p>\n

\n\t2011 marked the first fully functioning year for the ASP Prime Series and the initial offering was a resounding success. The ASP Prime events will continue to showcase the established elite tour campaigners battling the new guard in ten venues this coming year.<\/p>\n
