Lance is also looking sharp coming into the contest. He's been getting comfortable on his wide swallow-tail shapes here.

I could tell this was going to be a multi-section tube. Chris did well to find this left.

Chris did an excellent job of getting compact and compressed in there. I wouldn't want to face him at the "limbo".

Rowan read this left well. He dropped low to set-up for a deeper bottom turn than had he stayed higher on the face.

Bang! Not so different from Yuji. A deep bottom turn sets you up for a powerful top turn.

Koa looking relaxed on this clean left. If it was bigger and hollower, maybe he would've found some shade here.

Everyone had a moment in the spotlight today! Nicole here driving across a right racer. Not a bad day of waves, but far from epic. Tomorrow looks similar, maybe a touch smaller, but it should also be more consistent. Let's see! Hasta manana.
