Costa Rica remains in eleventh place at the PASA Games Panama 2022 and this will be the schedule for the Costa Ricans on the fourth day of competition.

On the third day of competition, the SUP Race finals were held, where Peru in the men's category and Brazil in the women's category delivered the decisive blow to win the gold medal.

Itzel Delgado of Peru and Lena Guimaraes of Brazil triumphed in Panama. The Peruvian dominated the race and finished strong to secure the gold medal, while the Brazilian didn't have the best start, but she had a bit of luck at the end and, after a fall by Argentina's Juliana Gonzales, managed to claim the honors.

Axel Castro represented Costa Rica in the men's race and finished in 21st place.

On this third day of competition, it was the turn of the men's open shortboard category and the emotions were at their peak, where the countries of Brazil, Peru, Argentina, Mexico and the host country, Panama, showed what they came to the event for.

The highlight of the day was the score of Brazilian and former CT member Deivid Silva, who achieved the first 10 of the tournament at Playa Venao, but as if that were not enough, he also conquered another wave of 9.00 pts, closing with a combination of 19 pts out of a possible 20.

Costa Rica, for its part, managed to qualify three of its four competitors for the second round. Tosh Talbot, Sebastián Schneider, and Malakai Martínez will compete in the second phase of the event until Friday. Unfortunately, after a great effort, Óscar Urbina finished in third place in his group and was eliminated from the tournament.

In the longboard category, the semifinals were scheduled for yesterday, where Dorian Torres from Guanacaste was competing; however, the event directors decided to postpone the series until today due to the wave conditions.
