The Stage is Set! Your 2025 Flag Day Fautasi Finals Lineup (Prepare for Glory!)

Alright, folks, the moment we've all been… patiently waiting for (or maybe just mildly curious about) is almost here! The finals for the prestigious 2025 Flag Day Fautasi Race are locked and loaded, ready to unleash some serious paddling power at 1 pm sharp. And wouldn't you know it, the all-important lane assignments have been decided after this morning's thrilling (and likely slightly damp) preliminary heats.

Drumroll Please... Your Championship Contenders and Their Starting Positions!

After what I'm sure was a nail-biting (or at least mildly engaging) draw, here's how our valiant fautasi are lining up for the ultimate showdown. Place your bets now, folks (purely for entertainment purposes, of course!).

  • Lane 1: Aeto
  • Lane 2: Manulele Tausala Low Rider
  • Lane 3: Iseula o le Moana
  • Lane 4: Taema
  • Lane 5: Paepaeulupoo
  • Lane 6: Lupelele
  • Lane 7: Matasaua

They'll all be charging out from the familiar waters of Breakers Point, the same starting line that hosted this morning's aquatic action. So, if you missed the prelims, now you know where the drama (and hopefully some impressive athleticism) will unfold.

Missed the Morning Mayhem? Here's a Quick Catch-Up!

For those of you who were perhaps enjoying a leisurely breakfast or, you know, *not* glued to the fautasi heats, here's a little peek at how the morning unfolded and who punched their ticket to the big dance:

Will the morning heat winners maintain their momentum? Will a dark horse emerge from the outer lanes? Tune in at 1 pm to find out! May the best paddling prevail (and may everyone stay dry-ish)!
