For Big Island, Kauai, and Maui:

• For the 17 & Under longboard, bodyboard, and SUP divisions we will take top 6

Itʻs too early to tell because the director goes based on projected wave heights, but we always aim to run all live scoring heats first, and then non-live scoring after weʻve completed the live scoring divisions.
