Shortboard | men | women |
The women's shortboard competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris was held from 25 July to 5 August at the Teahupo'o reef pass, Tahiti, a French overseas territory in the French Polynesia, located more than 9,320 miles (14,999 km) from Paris. [1]
American surfer Caroline Marks won gold, Brazilian Tatiana Weston-Webb took silver, and Johanne Defay of France received bronze.
The 24 quota places per gender were distributed to the eligible surfers at the following events based on the hierarchical structure: [2] [3]
The competition consists of six rounds: [5] [6]
From round 2 onwards, all rounds are elimination rounds and the heats consists of two surfers, with the top surfer progressing to the next round and the second place being eliminated.
The length of each heat (25 to 40 minutes) and the number of waves each surfer can ride (maximum 25) are determined by the technical director ahead of the day of competition. Scoring for each wave is from 0.1 to 10, with the best two waves for each surfer counting. Scores are based on the difficulty of manoeuvres performed, innovation and progression, variety, combination, speed, power, and flow of each manoeuvre. [7]
The competition is judged by two head judges, two priority judges, and seven regular judges. [8]
After Australian surfing judge Benjamin Lowe posted a picture on social media of himself posing with Australian competitor Ethan Ewing and his coach Bede Durbidge, Lowe was removed from the judging panel by the International Surfing Association on August 1. [9]

On 29 July, the weather turned dangerous towards the end of round 3 of the men's shortboard event, forcing the cancellation of the women's third round. The waves continued to be too rough for competition over the next two days, [11] leaving the final women's round 3 and all finals re-scheduled for 1 and 3 August (a lack of contestable conditions was also expected for 2 August). [12]
