The event started out with a bang and ended with a whimper. The massive swell that snapped boards and egos over the last 2 days of competition tapered off on the final day. Surf was very clean, but by the final heat, surfers were struggling to get to their feet. Local boy Yadin Nicol had the best result of his career, making the final against Damien Hobgood. Yadin came about as close to making the tour as you could possibly get, missing out by one placing in the final heat of the season at Sunset last year. Now with this result in a 6-Star Prime, he is looking very good to try to get on tour after the New York event.
The final saw the last gasps of the swell lapping against the reef at Margaret's. Damien was able to get 2 mid range scores by employing some Floridian groveling techniques. Yadin waited for the sets that never came, and was never really in the heat.
Granger Larsen and Willian Cardoso finished equal third, huge results for the 2 WQS warriors.
Damien walked away $40,000 richer and now sits at number 10 in the World Rankings after this win.
