Olympics: Mixed weather and waves at Tokyo 2020 surfing test event


SHIDASHITA BEACH, Japan (Reuters) - Surfing's unpredictability is part of its charm and Tokyo 2020 organisers got a taste this week of what might face them next year when the sport makes its Olympics debut.

Heavy fog and small waves on Thursday meant the start of the four-day surfing test event at Shidashita Beach, some 60 kilometres north-west of Tokyo, was delayed for an hour.
