Billabong Rio Pro 2012 – Day 6 Highlights

All the action from Round 2 and part of Round 3, which ran at the primary venue of Barra da Tijuca. Hawaii’s John John Florence put on the day’s stand-out performance with the highest heat total of 17.00 out of 20. Incidentally, the rest of Round 3 is in the water right now which you can watch live on the webcast http://wctbrasil.com/rio12/live-gb. With Tiago Pires and Michel Bourez through to Round 4, and Flores still to surf against Ace Buchan, it’s looking like a strong event for the Europeans.

Pictured: John John Florence (HAW), 19, was a standout today, posting big scores in both the barrel and the air to advance to Round 3 of Billabong Rio Pro competition. Credi: ASP/ SCHOLTZ
