Amid rough conditions and no watercraft assistance, Southern California’s top surfers battled fierce waves — including San Clemente’s Cole Houshmand and Hayden Rodgers taking heat wins, Griffin Colapinto (2021 champ) riding momentum, and Kade Matson scoring a last-second wave. Local rivals like Taj Lindblad and Jake Marshall also punched their tickets, while past champions like Levi Slawson fell. For Matson and Colapinto, it was a dream day of friendship and grit; meanwhile, standout Alyssa Spencer clawed her way through with a buzzer-beater, while Turner and Pinkerton were eliminated — proving that every wave counts in this high-stakes Challenger Series showdown.
