Post Show Report: Full Speed Toward Finals Day at Billabong Pro Tahiti

WSL commentator Joe Turpel was joined by co-hosts Martin Potter and Peter Mel to recap all the big stories from Day 2 at the Billabong Pro Tahiti. With 20 heats completed, it was a lot of ground to cover, including updates on all the Title contenders -- Matt Wilkinson, John John Florence, Jordy Smith, Owen Wright and Gabriel Medina. Commissioner Kieren Perrow has already called the event on for tomorrow (Sunday in Tahiti), so the crew picked their winners and losers when things wrap up on Finals day. Will we get a 7th first-time winner on Tour this year? Or will one of the World Title contenders make a move? Be sure to tune in tomorrow for all the action, starting at 7 a.m. local time in Tahiti.
