The inaugural day of the 2015 Tenerife PWA World Cup saw the wave fleets registering for the upcoming week of competition, whilst the opening three heats of the youth’s single elimination were completed before the tide became too high for the remainder of the contest to be concluded. With the conditions not improving the sailors were released at 4pm as attention turns towards tomorrow.

Iballa Moreno (Starboard / Severne / Maui Ultra Fins) sailed yesterday but unfortunately suffered a slight knee injury. The reigning world champion will see how her knee is in the single, but it’s not the ideal start having been previously injured in Pozo too.

With the possibility of the wind arriving early tomorrow morning the skippers’ meeting has been called for 8:30am with the first possible start at 9am. Make sure you tune into www.pwaworldtour.com to follow the amazing action as it happens via the PWA live stream and live ticker.
