With 8x World Champion Stephanie Gilmore and current world #5 Molly Picklum cheering on the next generation, the talent on display set the stage for an epic finals day tomorrow. Standout performances included explosive rail work from Ziggy Mackenzie, high-energy action from Spain’s Dylan Donegan, and incredible surfing from defending champion Lucas Skinner, who locked in the day’s highest heat total.
