Aluminum structure which will accommodate the jury for the surfing events during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games has been installed. The old wooden structure, which was used during the Surfing World Cup circuit in Teahupoo, was not approved for this level of competition.
At the beginning of December, during technical tests, a barge intended for the installation of the resized aluminum tower had broken coral. The Polynesian government then had to suspend work on the structure. The Paris 2024 teams and jury will be installed on three levels in this aluminum building.
