The preparation to the Final stage
The last stage of CT - that will decide the World Champion if Gabriel Medina does not win in Portugal - will be performed from 8th to 20th of December in Pipeline, in the island of Oahu, in Hawaii. It is one of the waves more fearly of the World, with many variations: may break a small tube right or even a big left. If the Wind would be offshore is perfect, because is easier so much for surfing and catch the tubes that Pipe offers. But if would be strong from the North, entering of side and with everything shaking, mainly in the Sea would be big - the waves become in fact, ferocious, huge, monstrous. I already had the opportunity of watching a Final of Pipeline so.
It is so difficult to surf, to know how to choose the right wave. There are very few surfers that know how to manage with this situation, only the more tough and experienced.
There will be a moment of much pressure and adrenaline to them that have chance of title. It is importante that competitors are very well prepared both physically and psychologically. There will be about six weeks of break between Portugal and Hawaii, a good time for this. It is importante to arrive earlier in Pipeline, to ride waves, try surfboards for all the possibilities of surfing, as the Sea of there may break from three to 15 feet with rights and lefts. Without say that some may break in Surf sessions. Other importante aspect is the athlete should be respected by local surfers, have a good relationship with the Hawaiians because only on this way they may train in tranquility. This is a privilege of few because the competition is incredible. Some surfers stay hours to ride a perfect wave in Pipe on a crowded day.
The surf is so professional nowadays that all athletes have their personal trainers and coaches, that do evalutions, film and coment their performance on the water, giving tips about which surfboard worked better, constructive comments to get better the results. Many athletes do yoga for relaxing, have more concentration, and flexibility. The food is also very important: a nutritionist may advise what is ideal to ingest in the train and on the day of competition.
Good luck to competitors! That Brazil keeps shining and brings one more World Title!
Aloha and good waves!
