After nine regular season events, the Lexus WSL Finals brings the top 5 men and top 5 women in professional surfing to Lower Trestles for a one-day, winner-take-all, showdown for the coveted title of World Champion. From Pipeline and Portugal to Teahupo’o and Cloudbreak, it has been a hard fought season for the world’s best surfers. Ten surfers enter, and only two will emerge as Champions and add their name to the legacy of the sport.
This September, current world No. 1 John John Florence will be making his first appearance at Lower Trestles as a World Title contender. Caitlin Simmers, in only her sophomore season as a CT athlete, will be making her second run at a World Title while also donning the Yellow Leader Jersey. Meanwhile, world No. 2 and defending champion Caroline Marks will be back in front of her home crowd to defend her World Title.
Tour veterans will battle a new generation of talent for the World Title this September at Lower Trestles. History will be made, and legacies will be defined.
