Bell's Beach 2011 Round's 1 and 2

With good waves for the first two rounds and only better waves on the way, it’s look like this years Bell’s event will hopefully come down to a classic battle. The first two round’s saw all the major player’s getting through with a few standout’s in there also. Every surfer seems to be really wanting to shake the infamous Bell, and more so this year considering it’s the 50th anniversary of the event. One person in particular is none other than Kelly Slater, who seemed to be in form for the first rounds, and as we all know he only gets better in the later heats. With everyone claiming classic Bells, I’m sure no one will let Mr. Slater slip out of their sights. So, here are the Round 1 and 2 highlights and Round 2 standings.
