Boardmasters Highlights: Epic First Day of Action for QS Animal Pro!

The Boardmasters Open WSL surfing events kicked off today in a building swell and glassy conditions to run a mammoth day of competition. The QS1,000 Animal Mens and Womens Pro completed 52 heats to decide the events’ finalists, with high-performance surfing and large crowds enjoying a picture-perfect summer day at Fistral. The Animal Womens Pro Final will feature the 2019 winner Yolanda Hopkins (PRT) up against Ariane Ochoa (EUK), Janire Gonzalez Etxabarri (ESP) and Laura Coviella (CNY). The Animal Mens Pro will have a new winner as none of the four Finalist have previously won at Fistral, the showdown between Bitor Garitaonandia (ESP), Thomas Ledee (FRA), Marco Mignot (FRA) and Jobe Harriss (GBR) promises fireworks! Longboarders will kick off their BFGoodrich Longboard Pro campaigns super early Friday morning, and we could wrap both competitions by the end of the day tomorrow! #wsl Subscribe to the WSL for more action: https://goo.gl/VllRuj Watch all the latest surfing action of the world's best surfers in the world's best waves.
