Magical second day of action as we now prepare for the ultimate finale in epic surf
Epic action on day 2 of action at the 2014 Location X in Morocco, as the swell delivers
The swell delivered on cue yesterday for an epic day of action here in Morocco for day 2 of the Location X Main event.
Glassy conditions and pumping swell saw Round 3 get underway, as the Top seeds once again dominated, but some epic battles also ensued as athletes stepped up to do battle in the full size conditions.
While Julien Bouyer (Naish) went down in Round 4, it was not without a fight as he put on the performance of a lifetime against Bernd Roediger, finding the right rythmn to take on the conditions on tap here in Morocco.
Unfortunately his performance was not enough to take the win, but his impression has been made on the World Tour as one of France’s future stars.
