El Salvador began hosting the fourth edition of the ISA World Longboard Championship at El Sunzal in La Libertad. The event, supported by the Ministry of Tourism and the National Institute of Sports, features athletes from 37 nations and serves as a qualifier for the Pan American Longboard Games in Lima. As the competition progressed, athletes such as those from the Spanish Longboard National Team moved through various rounds. Competitors like Nicolás García advanced to the third repechage round, while others, including Julieta Rodríguez-Villamil and Daniela Sevillano, participated in heat rounds testing their ability to adapt to local sea conditions. By October 20, 2026, the championship continued at El Sunzal, utilizing specialized judging and camera replay systems to evaluate maneuvers. Brazil’s Chloé Calmon and Alexandre Escobar advanced to the fourth phase of the main event, placing them within two heats of the finals. Spain’s Nicolás García and Julieta Rodríguez-Villamil also remained in contention following recent repechage rounds. Alejo Campos, director of Surf City, stated that El Sunzal was selected due to its wave characteristics, water temperature, and tourism infrastructure. The championship aims to promote Salvadoran beaches and provide economic benefits to local host communities.
