Come si svolgono le gare di surf?
Nell’oceano, il WSL bloccherà una sezione dell’acqua e i surfisti in gara dovranno catturare le onde all’interno di quella zona. In ogni evento ci sono diversi turni composti da manche separate con due o quattro surfisti che cercano di ottenere il punteggio più alto nel tempo che viene loro assegnato.
Come funzionano i punti nel surf?
Per ogni onda il punteggio piu’ alto e il punteggio piu’ basso di ogni votazione vengono eliminati, i punteggi dei restanti tre giudici vengono sommati tra loro, ed il risultato viene diviso per tre, in modo da avere un valore su un totale di 10, comprese le prime due cifre decimali.

Why did the US Army land in Hawaii?
There is as little basis for the pretense that forces were landed for the security of American life and property. If so, they would have been stationed in the vicinity of such property and so as to protect it, instead of at a distance and so as to command the Hawaiian Government Building and palace.
