1.45 PM SLT -- Big upset for the Surfline Shortboard Pro competition about 1pm, as Surfline Aloha and Epic sims seemed to be subject to the Linden Lab rolling restart! It might have been a sim crash, it might have been part of the global Second Life restart. However, the timing could have been worse. The sims went down just as Heat 4 ended and Heat 5 was about to begin, so at least Heat 5 will be able to start afresh if the sims become operational again today. At time of posting, Surfline Epic was up and being restricted to surfers and officials by the SLSA and Surfline Aloha was still down.

Here are the latest competition results from the Surfline Shortboard Pro whilst we wait for the situation on Surfline Aloha and Epic sims to be rectified.

HEAT 1
Pova Rustamova (14.66 points)
Paeida Allen (13.33 points)
Socks Clawtooth (12.83 points)
Ashleigh Dickins (9.5 points)
Cipriano Grut (9.33 points)
Crusader Arado (5.16 points)

HEAT 2
DeVinna Toll (15.0 points)
Bobbi Laval (12.83 points)
Buffy Munro (11.0 points)
Meteus Rieko (9.16 points)
Shelby Fitzgerald (9.83 points)
Warren Barthelmess (8.3 points)

HEAT 3

Colleen Brennan
(15.83 points)
Jaay Zymurgy (12.66 points)
Express Zenovka (13.0 points)

HEAT 4
Wilfrid DeCuir (15.50 points)
Abel Halderman (14.33 points)
Christine Daffodil
(14.17 points)
Mick Lunasea
(11.33 points)

Pova and Paeida were to advance together to the Semi Finals from Heat 1, however Paeida will not be able to make the Semis due to real life circumstances and so the third place in the heat Socks Clawtooth now goes through to the final. Meanwhile, DeVinna and Bobbi go through to the Semis from Heat 2; Colleen and Express from Heat 3; and Wilfrid and Abel from Heat 4.

Note: Although SurfWatch aims to report the competition results accurately and rely on SLSA judges announcements during the competition, all results are provisional, pending the final results announcement by the SLSA.
