A lay day has been called on Day 2 of the 2016 Jeep World Longboard Championship presented by Wanning. After a big first day of action at the long reeling left handers of Riyue Bay, the swell has faded and event organisers have decided to rest up and re-access conditions tomorrow.
The good news is that the weather maps suggest that a re-build in swell is just around the corner.
With Women's Round 1 being completed on Day 1, Men's Round 1 is yet to hit the water meaning there is still loads of action on the way from Riyue Bay.
Check back tomorrow as we wait to decide to the Men's and Women's 2016 World Longboard Champions.
