Competitors arrived at Praia Mole to find a significant increase in swell with solid waves in the 4-6 foot range (1.5 - 2 meters) and light to moderate onshore winds for Day 3 of the LayBack Pro presented by Billabong. The event's top seeds had the chance to get into the mix at the Men's QS3000 which resulted in high scores, major maneuvers and powerful hacks throughout the day.
