It’s been confirmed - starting at 10:50am local time in Australia, it’s finals day. The contest has moved down to Kirra according to the latest report.
“Swell has picked up and it’s a bit big and messy at Snapper and not quite the right tide for Kirra,” Rich Porta, ASP International Head Judge, said. “We’ve put the event on hold this morning and will make the next call at 10am at Kirra.”
