Tomorrow could be epic, they are talking about some very large swell, hope the get a bit more wind though!
Do you guys know where Victor Fernandez's winning heat is in the archives?

Wow, those chicks rip!!!

The guys...that's a whole other level of windsurfing compared to what I know. Now I expect on the next big day for you locals to step it up a few notches...no more pussyfooting around...let's see what you got under the hood! A big jump ain't cutting it any more. You have to loop, or land switch on the top of the swell and ride it out. C'mon now... :shock:

Another Lay day today, hopefully they'll be able to get to the finals of the double by the end of the weekend.

Final was awesome, small waves but amazing riding from Kevin Pritchard and Marcilio Browne. Women's was great too, Sarah-Quita Offringa and Sarah Hauser had even more challenging conditions but shredded!
