Tomorrow is the Women’s quartfinals and the contenders include:

Johanne Defay, Tatiana Weston- Webb, Coco Ho, Tyler Wright, Sally Fitzgibbons, Sage Erickson, Courtney Conlogue, and Pauline Ado.

 

Still can’t believe Stephane Gilmore was knocked out in the 2nd round, by wildcard Maud Le Car. Stephanie is my favorite, but also you can’t not be excited for the underdog. ;)

 

Be sure to walk across the street to Pacific City and go to Bear Flag Fish Co. for the best ahi Poke ever! Good tacos and clam chowder too!

 Enjoy the rest of the open! May we all be inspired to up our wave count after watching the greats ;)
