Should see an aussie 1-2 in the men's surfing unless Sean Poynter starts to fire. Beau and Justin picking up some good wins. Looking forward to see how Shakira does in the womens.
Well epic first day for aussies! Beau, justin & shakira all winning their surfing heats. Tomorrow morning will see the 24km long course for sup & prone. The fog today was insane u couldnt see 30m into the ocean! The whole race team now has their boards and feeling good. Its gonna be a hot race and a lumpy washy ocean. Should see some aussie golds tomorrow i think :) Now for dinner and rest. X angie
Hey all Cheers for watching what was a super tough 24km BOP race and to only have about 5 seconds between the top 5 or 6 was a amazing finish it would have to be the most technical distance race i have ever done and really at the end it could have gone any ones way. Ang is super stoked with her 1st place and she paddled unreal to do it!! Keep checking supracer.com for pics and updates now time to rest up and get ready for what looks like a6 to 8 ft BOP race on Thursday!!! This could be one not to be missed. Jacko
Congrats Paul and that was bad luck about that set behind you bringing up the second group to you guys.. You three looked like you had it in the bag.... Angie was awesome.. Good luck with the real BOP race.
IMO drafting is going to do 2/5ths of bugger all unless it is an intense head wind. Now what may mean, and may make a difference is wash riding, like they do in lifesaving events (ironman). But as I understand, you sit off to the side just on/in front of the person in fronts wake..
clear as mud. Anyway im sure the pros will correct me
Surf was crackin and iys picked up to 6 ft sets!! Comp was on hold cos of the sea fog, ive never seen anything like it. U couldnt see 30m in front of u haha. X
@Rukus, becuase America gets to feild 2 country teams , America and Hawaii....but again, team Hawaii are a no show???
the commentators were talking up how good theyd be, and yes Id agree. But I just dont get the logic of them not showing, and Some of the Americans not returning....
, America and Hawaii....but again, team Hawaii are a no show???
