After a weekend of solid waves at Hossegor, the Quiksilver Pro France is on a lay day, with new swell predicted for later this week.
“Tough conditions this morning,†ASP Commissioner Kieren Perrow said. “We still have swell on offer, but the wind really isn't cooperating for us. We'll be back tomorrow morning to reassess the forecast and what we have in front of us then.â€
According to Surfline, the official forecaster for the Quik Pro: "Another storm system will set up winds over the Labrador Sea... which would result in a reinforcing pulse of WNW swell." A closer look indicates a return to 6-foot faces and double-overhead surf setting up for the event's later rounds. (Read the full forecast.)
