Seventh Consecutive Lay Day for Billabong Pro Tahiti, Tomorrow a Likely Go
      



TEAHUPOO, Taiarapu/Tahiti (Sunday, August 29, 2010) – The Billabong Pro Tahiti, Stop No. 5 of 10 on the 2010 ASP World Tour, has called its seventh, consecutive lay day today with the new southwest energy failing to fill in completely before day’s end.

“We’re seeing the very beginning of the southwest energy this afternoon, but not enough to call competition on,” Richie Porta, ASP International Head Judge, said. “Tomorrow is all but a certainty that we’ll commence competition, and we’ll be back at 6am to assess conditions for a possible 6:30am start.”

Surfline, official forecasters for the Billabong Pro Tahiti, are calling for a larger and medium-size south-southswell swell to build in Monday.

A full breakdown of ASP World Title Rankings possibilities, including the ASP midyear field reduction, for the Billabong Pro Tahiti are available at ASPWorldTour.com

Event organizers will reconvene tomorrow morning at 6am to assess conditions for a possible 6:30am start.

When competition commences, up first will be Damien Hobgood (USA), 31, Kekoa Bacalso (HAW), 25, and Jay Thompson (AUS), 28, in the opening heat of the Billabong Pro Tahiti.

The Billabong Pro Tahiti will be webcast LIVE via http://www.billabongpro.com/tahiti10/

Swellhöhe nimmt 1-2 Fuss zu dafür geht die Periode um 2-3 Sekunden runter, müssen uns wohl langsam damit abfinden, dass das ganze wirklich kein epischer Chopes-Contest wird...relativ sicher ist aber dass dann heute gestartet wird, denn es sind nur noch 5 Tage in der Waiting-Period übrig und 4 Tage werden benötigt um den Contest durchzuziehen...
