After a pulsating WSL Finals Day to determine the 2022 world champions – a day which culminated in Stephanie Gilmore winning a record eight title in incredible fashion, and Filipe Toledo breaking through first his first – the professional surfing world’s head has turned to the next season. Set to kick off in late January, …
With just a solitary world title between the five men competing at the 2022 WSL Finals – fourth seed Italo Ferreira the only competitor to win one in the past – it was overwhelmingly likely that a new champion would be crowned by day’s end. With inexperience as prevalent as it was, performance under pressure …
Wow. The 2022 WSL Finals were just the second using this format in CT history and the first following a season not disrupted by Covid, and wasn’t it one to remember. The waves can certainly get better at Trestles than what was on offer in the early hours of Friday morning, but they were rippable …
This year saw the Championship Tour return to a ten-contest format for the first time in three years after just seven took place in 2021 and none the year before that, a result of our old friend the pandemic. And while plenty has stayed the same over those three years, a lot has changed, too. …
It’s been an historic year for women’s surfing. For the first time, the Championship Tour schedule exactly mirrored that of the men, something which resulted in a number of firsts – not least the first ever full women’s contest at Pipeline, and a return to Teahupo’o after 16 years. And after ten events, the result …
Nine months after the season kicked off in incredible fashion with a Kelly Slater win at Pipeline, the five men who will compete at the WSL Finals at Trestles have been locked in. Slater won’t be there, but a couple of other regulars in Filipe Toledo and Italo Ferreira will, alongside two vastly improved young …
Nine months and ten events after the season kicked off in a historic contest at Pipeline, the five women who will compete for the 2022 world title have been decided. Carissa Moore, Johanne Defay, Tatiana Weston-Webb, Brisa Hennessy and Steph Gilmore will head to Trestles in September for the WSL Finals, so let’s take an …
As the final contest of the season prior to the WSL Finals, it was all on the line in the first women’s Tahiti Pro since 2006. And while the scores certainly weren’t anything to write home about, the importance of so many heats in the context of the season ensured this contest remained enthralling throughout. …
Taking place at one of the best waves in the world, the Tahiti Pro is typically one of the most compelling events on the Championship Tour calendar, but this year it took on added importance as the last contest of the year before the WSL Finals. Filipe Toledo and Jack Robinson had already locked in …
Eight months and nine events after the 2022 CT season got underway at Pipeline, we’re finally at The End of the Road – in more ways than one. The Outerknown Tahiti Pro at Teahupo’o, a wave ominously referred to by that aforementioned title, marks the tenth and final contest of the Championship Tour season, and …

Filipe Toledo’s brilliant season and Jack Robinson’s rapid ascent means they are both assured of a spot in the WSL Finals, and almost certainly in the top two. But while Ethan Ewing and Italo Ferreira in third and fourth respectively are well-placed to make it to Trestles too, their positions are not guaranteed, and fifth …
With one event to go, just two of the five women who will compete in the WSL Finals at Trestles have been confirmed. Both Carissa Moore, currently ranked number one in the world, and Johanne Defay, ranked number two, are locked into the top five, meaning that whatever happens in Tahiti at the tenth event …
As the penultimate event of the season, the Corona Open J-Bay was a make or break event for many surfers looking to lock in a spot in the final five of this year’s Championship Tour. Conditions matched the stakes from the get-go, with J-Bay turning on from the beginning of the event window and offering …
