LA COTE DES BASQUES, Biarritz, France (Sunday, July 11, 2010) \u2013 Cori Schumacher (California, USA), 33, has won the Roxy ASP Women\u2019s World Longboard Championships today in Biarritz, at the world famous venue of La C\u00f4te des Basques defeating fellow finalist Kaitlin Maguire (California, USA), 22, in clean two-to-three foot (0.5 to 1 meter) waves in a 100% American heat.Claiming her first ever ASP World title after several years amongst the world\u2019s best female longboarders\u2019 contingent, Schumacher stepped-up to her reputation to dominate the last action-packed day of the contest posting the event\u2019s highest single-wave and heat scores respectively a 9.25 and 17.25 points.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt feels so good right now,\u201d freshly crowned Schumacher said. \u201cIt was like six minutes to the end and feelings just all washed over me and I was tingling. It\u2019s such an amazing feeling to win. I had some pressure though when I paddled into a wave and left Kaitlin (Maguire) on her own because she can pull a world championship out of her hat anytime.\u201d<\/p>\n
Coming out atop a series of intense exchanges in a well-fought final after eliminating two former world champions in the Quarterfinals (Jennifer Smith) and the Semifinals (Joy Monahan), Schumacher\u2019s solid 13.15 score to Maguire\u2019s 9.80 confirmed her domination over the weekend, her smart heat tactics and strategy giving her the final sot at the title.<\/p>\n
\u201cI took a gamble to paddle into that last wave and hope for the conditions to slow down as it hd been doing the last three days,\u201d Schumacher said. \u201cIt paid up, the gamble went well!\u201d<\/p>\n
Maguire, who was surfing her first final in an ASP World title decider event, came short of five points leaving the 2010 edition with the runner-up spot, a promising result and a guarantee to return in next year\u2019s ASP Women\u2019s World Longboard Championships along with the event\u2019s top 16 surfers.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was really exhausted for the final,\u201d Maguire said. \u201cDoing the semis and the final in a row was a tough one but it was a good heat. I surfed my best and she surfed. I was really aiming at the title coming to France so it\u2019s disappointing to come one spot short.\u201d<\/p>\n
Both finalists ending respectively best and second-best scorers of the 2010 edition, the Roxy ASP Women\u2019s World Longboard Championships were treated to excellent surfing levels throughout the two-day competition, the intensity rising fast throughout the final day of competition and the field of contenders reducing dramatically to the last two.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe way the contest was judged following the new criterias was great,\u201d Maguire said. \u201cTo value progressive surfing more and still count the traditional longboard style helped push the level higher and it\u2019s promising for next year.\u201d<\/p>\n
Making the Seminfinals for the second consecutive time, French favorite and and former ASP Women\u2019s World Longboard No. 2 Justine Dupont (Lacanau, FRA, in 2007) had to accept Maguire\u2019s unstoppable run to the final in a high-scoring battle. One of two French representatives to make the final-eight, Dupont had to face the domination of Hawaiian and United States\u2019 natives over the 2010 edition.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am really disappointed to end-up once again in the Semifinals,\u201d 18-year-old Dupont said. \u201cI\u2019ve had a runner-up, a fifth and two thirds in four years but I wanted to win that event today. I\u2019ll be back next year for another shot for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n
Former event winner and ASP Women\u2019s World Longboard No.1 Joy Monahan (Oahu, HAW) was stopped in the Semifinals despite delivering the best heat of the event against Schumacher where both girls respectively posted 16.00 and 17.25 points displaying an impressive repertoire of both traditional nose-rides and on-the-rail attacks.<\/p>\n
Inivted in the last second to replace last year\u2019s runner-up Chelsea Williams (AUS), Monahan, who had dropped out of the ASP Top 32 elite list, secured her retrun to the elite for 2011 by placing equal 3rd today, something crucial for the Hawaiian native.<\/p>\n
