Topocalma Infernal is confirmed!
In un quadro di generale incertezza e preoccupazione, sembra che dopo la cancellazione del primo evento in Giappone, previsto a Omaezaki, proprio in questi giorni (dal 4 al 9 marzo)… la seconda tappa del IWT 2020, la famosa Topocalma Infernal in programma in Cile dal 21 marzo al 5 aprile sia confermata.
Salvo, anche in questo caso, che non arrivino diverse disposizioni del governo locale dato che il primo caso di infezione da corona virus è stato confermato anche in Cile, solo un paio di giorni fa… speriamo bene!
IWT 2020 WAVE TOUR – RULE ADJUSTMENTS:
With Japan cancelled there are now adjustments to the overall IWT Wave Ranking calculation method:
4 major events on the IWT Wave tour for Pro Men, Women and Youth – these divisions are permitted one drop and that means 3 event results will count for the IWT 2020 Wave Tour Title for Pro Men, Women and Youth.
3 major events on the IWT Wave tour for Masters, Grand Masters and Open divisions – these divisions are permitted one drop and that means 2 event results will count for the IWT 2020 Wave Tour Title for Masters, Grand Masters and Open divisions.
COVID-19 VIRUS CAUTION:
The first virus case in Chile was confirmed on March 3rd. The event will proceed unless government officials say otherwise. Travel advisory from the US Department of Sate is unchanged as a consequence of any viral activity.
FINAL NOTE:
More detail on camping, travel coordination between Matanzas and Topocalma, and general event info will be provided tomorrow.
