The Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Guadalajara Challenge begins with today’s qualifier! We’ve got Daniel Freitas, aka Frito, aka La Maquina, aka Producer Thrito, filming all of the behind the scenes from Mexico. On our preview, Travis Mewhirter chats about:

– Can Brazil win another gold after George Wanderley and Andre Loyola won in Saquarema and Evandro Goncalves and Arthur Mariano won in Recife?

– Can Cuba’s Jorge Alayo and Noslen Diaz make another final after back to back silvers in Brazil?

– How will Switzerland’s Nina Brunner and Tanja Huberli respond to the pressure of being the No. 1 seed in Guadalajara?

– Will Chase Budinger and Miles Evans stay hot on the trail of Trevor Crabb and Theo Brunner?

– How will the recent NORCECA medalists, Hailey Harward and Kylie Deberg, Allanis Navas and Maria Gonzalez, Savvy Simo and Abby Van Winkle, Jake MacNeil and Alex Russell, Evan Cory and Wyatt Harrison, and Tim Brewster and Kyle Friend, do on the next ladder of the Beach Pro Tour? And, as always, much more.

SHOOTS!
