Saffi Vette has qualified for the 2024 Olympics

Unbelievably, Paige Hareb has been eliminated. The quota goes to Saffi Vette

[Laraja 1,494]

That is Paige Hareb 4th attempt to qualify, and she fails.

 

She competed on WSL, and she was one of the five surfers who could take a quota for last Olympics. She was the 5th in that.

 

Then, a terrible performance on last continental ISA.

 

And at last qualify, she lost her spot on last minutes of the last heat. In a direct dispute against Tsuzuki

 

Now, she has next ISA Games to finally qualify

Olympic Qualification Summary after Day 6

Oceania: Saffi Vette  has qualified for the 2024 Olympics after Hareb failed to advance from Repechage 6. Billy Stairmand  has qualified for the 2024 Olympics after Butler failed to advance from Repechage 6. 

Africa: On the women's side, Sarah Baum  has qualified for the 2024 Olympics after advancing from Repechage 6. On the men's side, disaster struck for Teva Bouchouga  with him placing fourth in Repechage 6 (Needing a third to qualify), therefore the quota will now be reallocated to the next highest-ranked unqualified surfer (As T30 finisher Jordy Smith will most likely qualify through the WSL Championship Tour)

Europe: Uri Uziel  is the only male surfer currently in the main round (R5) with Dylan Groen  (Repechage 7), Gonzalo Gutierrez  (Repechage 7), Kauli Vaast  (Repechage 7), and Frederico Morais  (Repechage 7) all still in contention in repechage, with perhaps the strongest surfers coming from France and Portugal. On the women's side,  Rachel Presti , Noah Klapp , Pauline Ado , Tiara van der Huls , Vahine Fierro , and Francisca Veselko  are the six surfers still competing in main round (R5). France, Portugal, and Germany are the favorites for the quota here.

Asia: Shino Matsuda  has qualified for the 2024 Olympics after Yang failed to advance from Repechage 6. On the men's side, Reo Inaba , Rio Waida , and Kanoa Igarashi  are all in the main round (R5). 

Reallocated Quota: Along with the male surfers above, you also have Cody Young , Sebastian Hernandez , Alan Cleland , Miguel Tuleda , Leandro Usuna , and Lucca Mesinas  all in contention for a spot at the 2024 Olympics.

If there is a vacancy for Africa in men, my question is whether the American countries could qualify for that quota place, since the places for America are assigned in the Pan American Games.

It's regardless of continent so I don't see why not.

Waida is out, then the quota goes to . Igarashi or Inaba will take it.

 

If Igarashi wins that, and also qualify through WSL, then the quota goes automatically to Inaba

 

Also, European quota is between  one surfer for each. It is gonna be funny to watch
