Whilst local talent, Ian Armstrong was knocked out in the first round, brothers Haydn and Devan MacNicol stormed through top of their heats. As did fellow South African Shaun Joubert – straight off his wildcard entry at J-Bay - in the first and only heat surfed today in the round of 64, giving the local crowd reason to celebrate.
“The world cup was unbelievable here and it really unified the whole country,” said Paul. “Everyone is still in that celebration mode, so this event still has a lot of that enthusiasm and positivity around it.”
No live footage as promised, but the guys at The BombSurf mag have a live feed for the scores... http://www.thebombsurf.com/pages/1693/oneill-coldwater-classic-sa
