Paris Olympics 2024, Men's Surfing Qualifying: Dropping In


I was wondering how Paris would be able to stage a surfing event for these Summer Olympics.  I don't know why I didn't think of Tahiti.  Despite being literally on the other side of the world, it was the perfect place to host the surfing events.  During Monday's qualifying rounds Gabriel Medina (Brazil) had a near perfect ride going so far as to come out of the curl of the wave holding up ten fingers in an appeal for a perfect score of 10.  He didn't get it.  But it was roughly a 9.7, not too bad.  Unfortunately for the Brazilian, the points won't carry over to his bid for a Gold Medal.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at greigleach.com or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above. Since it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The work sells for $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
