The Billabong Pro Rio starts today.....

The 3rd stop of the world tour starts today in Rio, forcast is looking good for waves and judging by the way the brazilians were surfing at the lowers pro, i think it could be very exciting. If you haven't got your Fantasy Surfer team sorted......then its a bit late now. Kelly Slater has withdrawn from the comp, he sustained a heel injury in Java, which re-opened itself in Cloudbreak and became infected ( tough life ), he has tried surfing on it but can only go straight, sounds like my best day in the water! Anyway, watch it all go down live at http://wctbrasil.com/rio12/live-gb the time difference means it will kick off our time around 11am everyday till the 15th.......
