NOVA SCHIN FESTIVAL ON HOLD AT IMBITUBA
News provided by ASP World Tour on 2 November 2006
IMBITUBA, Brazil – Despite monitoring conditions at Imbituba Beach until 11:30am, event officials have decided to call off competition for the Nova Schin Festival today, Thursday, Nov. 2, 2006.
Half of Round Two was completed on Tuesday, but with a number of the surfers yet to surf the second round sitting perilously low on the Foster’s ASP World Tour ratings, event officials are seeking conditions superior to those on offer before continuing competition.
Surfers rated 27th and higher after their best eight* of 11 results are tabulated earn berths on 2007’s elite tour. The remaining spots go to the top 15 rated surfers on the World Qualifying Series (WQS) and three wildcards as deemed by the surfer’s themselves.
Because the Nova Schin Festival is the second to last event on the 2006 Foster’s ASP World Tour and several of the surfers sitting low on the ratings have no WQS results to fall back on, strong results in Brazil in Hawaii are imperative if they want to surf amongst the elite next year.
Another call on competition status will be made at 7:00 tomorrow morning.
