james almost gets a taka. Jamie gets a one handed pushie@
low forward from jamie after a solid wave with a taka. James looking good on the riding but with two jumps to count in the final he needs some more jump to be in contention
As Clyde is backing Coxy on this one, my call is for Jamie to win.
Sadly, I’m outta here so will have to catch up later.
I’ve got a funeral to go to and tragicly it’s for a guy who was the same age as the competitors out on the water in Cornwall today.
Remember what you live for, guys. Laters.
jamie gets another gets another good back loop but so does james. James getting another great ride too.

bibby and ray advance. Jamie against james final is on! Some awesome riding from both so far, james behind on jumps at the moment
First and second from the southbourne crew! Cmon jimbo!
Great wave from ray! Couple of awesome tunrs!
James Cox was lying 6th overall coming into this event. It’s a shame he has a relatively poor result to count from the Wales/Rhosneigr event as otherwise he have may have been in contention for the 2012 title.
But he should now go top 5 for the year.
when are ams and masters planned for?
Will be after the double has finished. Amateurs will be next up after the ladies
Bibby on fire! Jump on the way out and some great turns on a wave on the way in too

Justyna looks in trouble witha very sore foot and heading down towards the rocks, lets hope she is still ok
Great heat from tucker, tucker and sniady advance
Good to see Justyna back on the water.
And she’s probably leading the UK women’s 2012 title race, right?
(Or can she not do so, under the rules, if she’s a foreign national? Does anyone know?)

Sophia gilje and ping advance!
Sara gets a better wave but very far upwind.
Sophia has a floaty jump and a wave ride. Sara has a wave ride in but needs to get on a bigg wave.
Ping getting a good few waves already in this heat. Getting on a good wave and riding really well.
Presumably Ben now faces Bubble in his next heat.
So Amy, are you not sailing then?
Nope, couldnt quite manage to be in two places at once today!
Ooops. That’s wrong then. Well done Ben.
Oh wow. Go Timo! And let’s hear it for the south coast (starboard tack) sailors! 1st 2nd and 3rd at this event.
Ladies heat up now ping, gilje, Kellet and carter. Although i am obviously on the beach!
Mullen advances.
Sorry, correction, my mistake. Proffitt advances.
Good waves from noth, looking pretty even at the moment, mullen looking ahead a little on jumps, but proffitt looking good on the waves, very close indeed!
I’ve found the scores on the BWA site, and I think Jamie Hancock has the title already in the bag – unless a further double elimination is held. Jamie has a 5th and a 2nd and either a 2nd or a first from today. So even if ben Proffitt could work his way up to a supfinal and theh knock Jamie into second here, he still can’t win the title because he has a 3 and a 5.5 score. First place here gets 0.7 points and a second gets 2 points.
So with Ben winning he would have 3 + 5.5 + 0.7 = 9.2 , but jamie would then have 5 + 2 + 2 = 9 , so Jamie still takes the overall win.
If John Skye had been here he would have been in with a chance too.
Proffitt on a nicer wave, getting a few more turns
Mullen starts with an ok wave, needs to find a bgigger set wave to rack up some more scores
After thos heat the ladies heats will start alternating with the pros
Mullen vs proffitt are up!
Heat break now then proffitt vs mullen
Timo faces Ben Proffitt next, right?
Sounds like Timo is on fire this morning. What size board is he on?
Sorry, needed two minite break! Mullen beats king in that heat. Both had good backies but mullen shone through on the riding.
If the Judges finish this double this morning then I guess the starboard tack sailors have the edge. But there’s an OK forecast for tomorrow now, possibly setting up port tack, depending which beach they choose.
I think he might. Although if ben wins here then can he take it? We all want coxy to win this one. Right!
So Jamie Hancock now leads the 2012 wave title race. But if he gets beaten in a super final of this double, and ends up second at this event, does he still win?
In other words, has Jamie got the title in the bag yet?
Phil will be gutted. But well done Timo!
Mullen advances. Looks like horrocks title has slipped away
Very close heat, mullen sailed a really great heat, results coming soon
Tweaked tabletop from timo
I’m guessing Timo is just a little bit more comfortable jumping on starboard tack than Phil.
Biig pushie from mullen
Looking close, mullen ahead on jumps and horrocks with the beqtter waves at the moment
By my dubious calculations, to win the 2012 title, Phil Horrocks has to beat Timo, then Andy King, then Ben Proffitt. Busy day then. Not sure I’ve got that right though.
King beat lewis to advance to the next round
Horrocks on a good wave! Some good hits then few smaller ones at the end
Mullen opens with a massive backie
Mullen and horrocks man on man in the next heat!

Results will be announced on the beach shortly

Shillito gets a wave! Some good hits in there too!
Hunt gets a decent wave, and king another too. Shillito needs a wave!
Just to help out here, I’m going to be Andy King’s imaginary competitor in this heat. And I reckon he’s in trouble, ‘cos I just landed a perfect backie.
Shillito big forward crash!
Hunt on a good wave, awesome snaps
Pushloop from king
King starts off with a good wave. Man on man within these four man heats. So hunt takes on shillito and king takes on dixon, well he would if dixon was on the water.
Double starts, king, hunt and shillito. Dixon should be in this too but isnt out yet!

Cox pulls a good forward too
Some more good forwards, now proffitt on really solod wave putting in some great turns
Shot of the judges view instagram makes them seem pretty far away though! http://instagr.am/p/RRyzfFTY1i/
Hancock rips up a wave, but then goes down!
Conditions looking tricky, gusty winds just dropping a little but waves looking bettter than yesterday
Proffitt gets an early back loop with all getting rides too. Chambers pulls a nice forward too.
2 jumps amd 2 waves 15minutes for the final. Then straight into the double afterwards in which heats will be 12minutes
The red flag is up so in two minutes proffitt, cox, chambers and hancock will battle it out once more in the single.
Good morning! We are kicking straight off this morning with a re run of the pros final from last night as it was run in fading light
