The waves were a little smaller than previous day, but made for spectatular jumping conditions with amazing huge jumps being thrown by all. The Men Masters Division and the Open Womens Division went off and really brought out some amazing talent from pros and amatures a like. Many pros have been using the amature divisions as warm ups for the pro divisions and have really pulled out the stops with nothing to loose.
The Masters Men Division had Josh Stone, new to the Masters category, really pushing in the trying conditions, and in the final ended up battling Phil Mc Gain for the win. Phil pulled of some great sky high jumps and delayed forwards, but it was Josh Stones amazing push loops with perfect landings that really brough him in at the top spot. There were no doubts about how he became a top wave sailor on the tour.
In the Open Womens category, many of the pro women came out to support the open women, whether on the beach, or on the water, it was great to see many new and upcoming ladies getting into the toughest competition they have seen yet. With new comers Ashley Baxter, Paulina Pease, and Kristen Orth, they surely learned alot of sailing against some of the best ladies in the world today, with past Aloha winner, Jennifer Henderson, and top wave sailor, Junko Nagoshi. These two ladies battled up the ladders and ended up in the final with Junko coming out on top.
