Medina surfs his eighth wave of this match and it’s so-so. Nothing special but did the trick. It’s a 5.77. Wright replies with a more impressive ride. He floats along the top, dips and then rises again, before turning back on himself as the whitewash gets heavy. That was adjudged a 5.47, and I know I’m biased but it looked the better of the two. Wright has the priority now with a tick under eight minutes remaining and he’s still in front with a total 11.97 to Medina’s 11.20.
Medina has the right of way, meaning if both surfers go for the same wave Wright must stand down. The Brazilian double world champion is up and he has to egg himself forward to properly get onto the lip but once he’s there it’s go time, and he finds some nice air before coming unstuck. Wright is sitting on a total of 8.6 and Medina 6.53.
