Surf Canada is very excited to announce that the ’22 Rip Curl Pro Nationals is a GO! It has been 34 years since the first contest that started this all, the 1988 Summer Surf Jam was held at Long Beach, and we are so stoked to build on that legacy and continue to Crown Canadian National Champions just up the coast at Cox Bay!

Some of you have competed in Surf Canada events before and for some of you this will be your first time, and we hope you are just as stoked about competing this year at Cox Bay as we are!

Each year we strive to make this competition better for all surfers and spectators and we feel like this year’s event will be a very memorable one! We hope to see you at Cox Bay, April 8-10, for this year’s Rip Curl Pro Nationals Canadian Championships. For those that can’t be there, we look forward to engaging with you through our live webcast on Surf Canada’s YouTube channel (linked on our homepage  www.csasurfcanada.org ) and we hope to see you at the beach in the near future.

Participants registered for the Surf Canada Nationals and eligible to compete for a spot on the National Team must be aware that doping control may be conducted by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) in accordance with the Canadian Anti-Doping Program.

To avoid a positive test and the consequences of an anti-doping rule violation, athletes are encouraged to take the following steps:
• Check your medications: Use the Global DRO to determine if any prescription or over-the-counter medications or treatments you are using are banned by the WADA Prohibited List.
• Review your medical exemption requirements: If you require the use of a banned medication for a legitimate medical reason visit http://cces.ca/medical-exemptions to obtain information and instructions about how to apply for a medical exemption.
• Learn about the doping risks associated with supplements: Do not use supplements, or take significant precautions prior to doing so. Supplement products cannot be verified by the CCES or in the Global DRO. A lack of industry and government regulation makes it impossible to confirm their ingredients. Find out more at http://cces.ca/supplements.
• Review the sample collection procedures: This short video will take you step-by-step through doping control.
