EMEA Feature of the Year
Ryan Pierse
“Ryan’s feature on Teahupo’o, the Tahitian village hosting the next Olympic surfing venue, captured the beauty of the location both on land and underwater. (It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it!) More than pretty pictures, his story also suggest ways in which the commotion and construction prompted by the Games may be in tension with the serenity of the place.”

Teahupo'o has been hosting the WSL Tahiti Pro event for over two decades and will next year host the surfing event for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Construction continues around the small village to prepare for the Olympic event.
