After going on hold all morning to assess conditions, event organizers at the Billabong Pro Tahiti presented by Air Tahiti Nui have called competition off for the day.

Event No. 3 of 10 on the 2009 ASP World Tour, the Billabong Pro Tahiti has completed Round 1 and the opening six heats of Round 2, but today's small, two-to-three foot (1 metre) conditions were not enough to prompt event organizers into calling competition on.

The next call will be made at 6:30am tomorrow. Surfline, official forecasters for the Billabong Pro Tahiti, are calling for a moderate SE swell to fill in over the coming days.

When competition resumes, up first will be Taylor Knox (USA), 27, up against Kai Otton (AUS), 29, in Heat 7 of Round 2. Highlights from yesterday's Billabong Pro Tahiti presented by Air Tahiti Nui are available at www.billabongpro.com
