The waves pumped yesterday in Venao, breaking with offshore, tubular waves and with several competitors already present for the Pan American Games.

Between April 24 and May 3, the grand event will take place there with the presence of 18 countries.

Photographer Philippe Demarsan is there and sent this material:

Sections of good views
Joaco Muñoz Larreta shone in yesterday's surfing
Romeo Chávez finding the shade, and he looks good enough to find the way out
Arriving for a day of waves like this, that's a good welcome.
You can't see it, but it looks like it's Edwin Nuñez.
The young Uruguayan Tito Camblor had a good day
Safely tucked away on a perfect green wall. So well hidden that no one knows who he is.
The sea was that good
The beginning of the journey
Romeo also found room to maneuver
As did the tube rider
Double overhead speakers were installed
And many others left on their own.
