This is how the Olympic semi-finalists were defined on a day that had it all.

Below is the proof in the photos of ISA officials: Pablo Jimenez, Tim McKenna, Beatriz Ryder and Pablo Franco.

There were tubes but it was not easy to find the exit.
Great shot by Ethan Ewing who failed to beat Jack Robinson.
Tyler Wright found the tubes but not the victory against Caroline Marks in the quarterfinals. In the photo she is beating Anat Lelior.
The tough Australian could have made it to the next round.
Medina was one of the few who managed to find tubes late in the day and that is one of the reasons why he is the favorite.
Tatiana laughs because she got into the semis
Taking out the keels to beat Nadia Erostarbe
Conditions in the morning were good.
Two legends: Aritz and Nadia, a dynamic duo.
The podium is already in place. Who will be on it?
Carissa's hug with Johanne, much more than a photo, the end of an era with the Hawaiian's farewell.
Johanne said goodbye to Carissa and said goodbye to the event's favorite, Vahine Fierro.
Johanne is motivated, doing maneuvers like this.
Another one who found tubes and the exit: Kauli Vaast.
In these conditions Vahine was unable to shine and left the event early.
The mascot made his presence felt on the channel.
Even though it was a small day, some waves came in, like the one in the photo of Sarah Baum who lost to Carissa Moore.
Carissa Moore's last day of official competition. What will become of Carissa, who is only 31 years old?
Carissa cried in the mixed zone
And she cried, hugging her husband.
One that remains one of the best on the planet and that will no longer be on the tour.
Good conditions in the morning.
Caroline Marks is now the favorite.
