World Surf Games won by hosts, Peru!

The World Surf Games in Peru came to an end yesterday in fine style, with the relatively small surf community of the host nation winning team Gold. This was a massive success for the peruvian surf culture and can only hope to grow the sport on the west coast of South America.

Altogether, 31 countries, with 220 surfers in their teams competed through a total of 250 heats. An amazing statistic in itself.
