    This past Sunday the ISA Open World Cup concluded, where Tico surfers had a great participation and stood out at the Latin American level on the Puerto Rican beaches.

    The third best Latin American country

    The national team placed tenth among the 55 participating countries. In addition, it established itself as the third best Latin American country in the competition, only surpassed by Peru and the champion, Brazil.
