CASCAIS, Portugal (Wednesday, September 28, 2016) – Competition will resume today at the Cascais Women’s Pro, stop No. 8 of 10 on the Samsung Galaxy World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour (CT), and the QS10,000 Billabong Pro Cascais pres. by Allianz, the final stop on the European Qualifying Series. They day will begin with four heats of Men’s Round 2 followed by Women’s Round 4 in three-to-four foot (1 metre) surf at the back-up venue of Guincho. Event organizers will reconvene to make another call at 11:15 a.m. local time.

“The wind this morning is a lot calmer than what we’ve seen over the past few days and there is still some nice swell in the water” said Deputy Commissioner, Jessi Miley-Dyer. “We’re actually going to start with the men today. We’re going to do four heats of men followed by four heats of women and finish Round 4. Then we’ll make another call and decide what we’re going to do for the rest of the day.”

Alejo Muniz (BRA), Jesse Mendes (BRA), Vasco Ribeiro (PRT) and Vicente Romero (ESP) will be first to take to the water in Round 2 Heat 5 of the Billabong Pro Cascais.

Johanne Defay (FRA) and Laura Enever (AUS) will battle for a place in the Quarterfinals in the opening heat of Round 4 of the Cascais Women’s Pro.

Surfline, official forecaster for the WSL, are calling for:

Expect a lingering mix of NW/WNW swells early on Wednesday before reinforcing WNW swell moves in during the afternoon and offers bigger surf towards the end of the day. WNW swell continues into Thursday but gradually eases. Better wind conditions expected for Guincho Wednesday and Thursday. Lingering swell fades on Friday before new NW/WNW swell builds on Saturday into Sunday. Note that Carcavelos will be smaller than Guincho the next several days.

The Cascais Women’s Pro runs in conjunction with the Billabong Pro Cascais pres. by Allianz, the WSL Men’s QS 10,000 event, and both will be webcast LIVE viaWorldSurfLeauge.com and via the WSL mobile app.
