“PERU got a taste of world surfing action for the first time in over forty years with the opening day of the 2008 ISA World Masters Surfing Championship kicking off in Peru today.

Punta Rocas, which last held the ISF World Championship won by local Peruvian Felipe Pomar in 1965, provided the ideal forum for the world’s premier masters surfers with near perfect 1.5-2-metre right-hand point break waves welcoming competitors.

24 heats of the Masters (Over 35), Kahunas (Over 45) and Grand Masters (Over 40) were completed on day one of the prestigious competition.”*
