The venue for the world's largest event in Masters Surfing, the ISA World Masters Surfing Championship (WMSC) has been named. Santa Catalina, on the north Pacific coast of Panama, will welcome the best over-35-year-old surfers from August 29 to September 5.
After having an inaugural WMSC in Rincon, Puerto Rico in 2007 and a successful second edition in Punta Rocas, Peru, in 2008, the Masters family will gather together again, this time in the wave-rich nation of Panama to compete for the world title in the following divisions: Masters (Over 35); Women Masters (Over 35); Grand Masters (Over 40); Kahunas (Over 45) and Grand Kahunas (Over 50).
"The ISA congratulates Panama on securing the rights to host the ISA World Masters Surfing Championship for the first time," explains Fernando Aguerre, President of the International Surfing Association. "We are looking forward to a world class event in the great waves of Santa Catalina."
South Africa has dominated the overall team standings for the past events, and it will be interesting to see who is able to bring the strongest Masters team to Panama.
Who's going to take home the medals for 2010? We will know
