South Africans Post Mixed Results on Day 3 of VISSLA ISA World Junior Surfing Championship

South Africans Post Mixed Results on Day 3 of VISSLA ISA World Junior Surfing Championship

Date: 2018-11-02

Members of the South African team posted mixed results in the glassy head-high waves on offer for Day 3 of the VISSLA ISA World Junior Surfing Championship being staged on the South Side of the Huntington Beach pier in California on Monday.

The eight South Africans in action recorded four heat wins, one runner-up berth, three third place finishes and a fourth place.

Gabi Lailvaux from Westbrook, opened her account at the event by grabbing second place in a low-scoring U18 girls Main Event Round 1 heat.

Zoe Steyn of East London, who is representing the country in both the U18 and U16 girls divisions, came out with all guns blazing in her Round 2 U18 girls match-up, delivering a heat-winning, double-figure total of 12.63 (out of 20) to finish ahead of Summer Macedo from Hawaii, the winner of the U16 girls division in 2015 and one of the favourites for the gold medal in the U18 division here.

Kayla Nogueira of uMhlanga produced a confident opening performance to win her first heat in the U16 girls.

In the U18 boys, Luke Slijpen (Hout Bay) racked up his second heat win of the event to progress to Round 3 and Mitch du Preez (East London) emulated his teammate Slijpen with his second successive heat win in the U16 Boys.
