As a blessing to the event, the field of 48 men and 18 women were greeted to a traditional Balinese ceremony before competition got underway at 8am.
Contest organisers have also opted to place Round 1 of the Pro Junior men’s on standby.
“We’ve got quite good contestable waves, a favourable tide, and the winds are looking good for the day. We’ll see what we get after the completion of the women’s and evaluate whether we put the men’s division in the water,” said ASP Event Head Judge, Glen Elliott.
