East Beach, Port Alfred – Big, feathering peaks could be seen in the darkness. Competitors started arriving for day two of the Royal St Andrews Hotel SA Open Champs presented by Rip Curl. Some surfers quickly got out there. Others slowly got their boards ready, waiting for the sun to rise to see just how big the sets were. In the free surf, top East London surfer David Emslie injured his foot. He had to enjoy an early morning ambulance ride to the nearest hospital for a check-up.
