The following athletes have qualified for Paris 2024 through the 2023 ISA Surfing Games

 

Vahine Fierro  (European Women's Quota)

Kauli Vaast  (European Men's Quota)

Saffi Vette  (Oceania Women's Quota)

Billy Stairmand  (Oceania Men's Quota)

Shino Matsuda  (Asia Women's Quota)

Kanoa Igarashi  (Asia Men's Quota)

Jordy Smith  (Africa Men's Quota)

Sarah Baum  (Africa Women's Quota)

 

Should Jordy qualify through the CT, the quota will be reallocated to Alan Cleland , and should Kanoa qualify through the CT, the quota will be reallocated to Reo Inaba .

 

 

I would like to believe that Alan Cleland could take that spot, but given is the african quota, if South Africa gets it through CT then it will be reallocated to the nex in line from Africa don't you think?

It really goes to Cleland . The quota would be reallocated to an African surfer only if he had finished on top 30.

 

After Smith, the best ranked athlete is Teva who finish on 31st.

Only one stage to go, before Finals

 

Seeing this opportunity, an overview about Surfing Qualification

 

Women

 

Brisa

Johanne

Tatiana

Teresa are already in the Olympics.

 

Carissa , imo, is qualified as well; she cannot be overtaken by any other American/Hawaian surfer, which automatically put her in the Olympics. The same applies to Wright which cannot see any other Australian girl ahead of her, giving her ticket too.

 

The second American and Australian quota will be decided between: Marks , Lakey , Caitlin , Picklum and Gilmore

 

There's a chance of Lakey and Caitlin do not advance to the Finals, which would give olympic spot directly to Marks.

 

As for the quota, only Gilmore can still "steal" the place provisonally secured by Picklum. She needs the second place at to keep her dream alive. Even though, the second place wouldn't give her enough points to feel "safe". The first place, added to a poor performance from Caitlin and Lakey is her best option for the place on Finals.

 

Men

 

Toledo

Fioravanti

Ewing

Colapinto are already in the Olympics

 

John John Florence is qualified too, imo. Even if either Barron or Ian win the last stage, they can't sum enough points to overtake him.

 

All the other quotas are still open. And, it will be a fierce battle for the second Brazilian and Australian quota. And for the other three spots.
