Surfing ISA World Games 2024

Men’s repechage round 4 is also over, here who’s still in contention for the 6 individual quotas:

 

Main Round 4:

Repechage Round 5: 

 

By my count that gives each surfer a 6/23 chance at an Olympic quota (but like above there’s implications for Spain/France as they can only secure a maximum of two quotas)

The luck Sky Brown is having...

This is hugely unfair on  

How are supposed to compete at the highest level without water companies pumping out raw sewage into the water around them?

I believe we have our first Olympic qualifiers on the women's side:

Yalanda Sequeira

Nadia Erostarbe

Sol Aguirre

Taina Hinckel

 

The rest of the four qualifiers will come from the repechage.

State of play on Women's side:

, and  are in a heat together so at least one of them will make it through. 

 

,  and  are in a heat together so at least one of them will make it through. And it most likely will be one as Carissa Moore is in this heat and it's highly unlikely she doesn't make it through. 

 

,  and  are in a heat together so at least one of them will make it through. However, if Olin and Moore make it out of their heats,  fails to make it out of hers and the first  makes it out of her heat, then the  in this heat would effectively be classed as ineligible as  would already have two qualifiers. 

 

There's a strong chance we could have all 8 qualifiers done and dusted by tomorrow. There's also a chance we could have to go into Saturday's Repechage 7, and another chance we could have a tie in placings for the last 1 or 2 spots.

Good news for GBR -  two  qualified surfers have made it to the Olympics.

Bad news - One will compete for  and the other for

As mentioned above the first four women’s quotas have been determined today.  

 

 Yolanda Sequiera,  Sol Aguirre,  Talina Hinckel,  Nadia Erostarbe have all booked their tickets to Tahiti. 
 

Rest of the tickets will be determined through repechage (R6 right now), between 

 

By my count, that gives each surfer an 4/9 chance at an Olympic quota (there are some complications to the mix for surfers from Spain as they can only secure two quotas)

Spain is right now on the top of Women's Team Quota... followed quite close by Brazil. They have a huge chance to come from no surfers, to 3 surfers qualified haha
