Best I could tell looking at the webcam was that today was a lay day. Is that right?

Swell forecast is for growing swell the next few days for Tahiti. Sounds like Teahupoo will be pretty heavy!

Scott,

I think it was a lay day for the open, but they ran women and junior heats.

Here's a link to some photos and official results on the ISA web site.

Amazing final results.

Does anyone know what discussions were had for a locale for the 2015 World Championships?
