Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o presented by Hurley have called competition off

Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o presented by Hurley have called competition off

Date: 2019-08-30

Teahupo'o, Tahiti and all eyes are assessing conditions with swells building, the event organizers at the Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o presented by Hurley have called competition off for the day with a serious swell in the triple overhead range expected to arrive for tomorrow.

"There have been some nice waves coming in," said Kieren Perrow, WSL Competition Director, "but conditions have been too inconsistent for us to call competition on. We have a great swell coming in overnight," he added.

This Event No. 7 of 11 on the 2019 WSL Championship Tour, the Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o presented by Hurley, will be critical to the 2019 WSL Title Race as the world's best surfers battle at one of the most testing waves on the planet.

Former Championship Tour standouts C.J. Hobgood (USA), 2001 World Champion, and Damien Hobgood (USA), 2007 Tahiti Pro winner, are in Tahiti to compete in a WSL Heritage Heat in the upcoming days. The twin brothers were long-time standouts at Tehaupo'o, but never competed against one another at the famed reef pass.

For the Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o, WSL collaborated with 'Glowing Glowing Gone', a global campaign advocating for greater funding and action for coral reef conservation by highlighting the global danger signalled by fluorescing corals. The collaboration features a complete takeover of the Tahiti Pro Teahupo'o presented by Hurley event branding to incorporate the exact colours of fluorescing corals, in addition to WSL's support of Coral Gardeners, a youth-led non-profit organization that is actively restoring coral reefs in the area.
