I saw that Afghanistan has a surfer there, I really hope he finds a way to qualify for the Olympics. What a story that would be!

There aren't any universality or tripartite commision places, so he really needs to be quite good in order to get the olympic spot.

I am unashamed, at getting nothing done.

This competition isn't really important, right? Congrats to Santiago anyway.

Besides the fact (I believe) It gives quotas for the Pan Am Games

Well, If I'm not wrong, this is the most important competition at the amateur level. Good result for your competitor.

Next year it will be a qualifier for Olympics afaik. It is considered world championships though. And Igarashi is a solid surfer from World Surf League. I am not sure, but as I remember ISA will allow at olympics only surfers who started at World Surfing Games.

actually this is the most important competition outside the Pro Tour (WSL), which is reserved to a small number of surfers coming almost only from the 4/5 powerhouses of the sport (26 are the "regulars")...;)

 

p.s. Igarashi is a WSL Tour member...so, Muniz's success can be described as "very prestigious"...

 

p.p.s. next year, this same competition will be the key event to earn an Olympic spot (apart from those reserved to the WSL tour specialists)...:evil:

      summary   Brignone = top star of the championships     rest of the team = why wasting money bringing them to the championships and expose them to the world, showing their total lack of talent?

      Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

      Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
