About this film
A finish worthy of the fandom on hand to celebrate the insane conclusion to the inaugural Philippines Pro Presented by Philippines Sporting Commission, crowning Caity Simmers and Gabriel Medina the event victors.
An relentless charge from Simmers overcame all the obstacles from stitches in her foot and sending herself over the falls countless times to rise above the rest for her first win of 2026. Simmers kicked off Finals Day in a battle with 5x World Champion Carissa Moore, and kept her composure in hectic moments as a priority interference was called on Moore following a block on the previous wave. Then, Simmers took that steam into the Final against Cinderella story Isabella Nichols, who had surgery eight weeks ago following Fiji and found herself in back-to-back CT Finals after besting 2x World Champ Tyler Wright. But, it was all Simmers before the men’s Final provided fireworks.
Three-time World Champion Gabriel Medina conquered a pivotal Finals Day in the Philippines to set himself for a fourth World Title after unleashing his El Monstro form. Medina went toe-to-toe with World No. 1, reigning World Champion, Yago Dora, in an airshow for the books before finding arguably the barrel of the entire week against Jack Robinson in the Final. The score nearly touched perfection, earning a 9.43, and paired that with his 7.50 have Robinson in a major combination. But, Robinson fired back with excellence of his own before the ocean let him down for a comeback.
The first-ever Philippines Pro went above and beyond. From the fans backing the world’s best and their own wildcard wonders, to some of the best high-performance showdowns of the season, Cloud 9 will have fans and athletes alike dreaming for years to come.
Now, the full field is ready to return and play ultimate spoiler to the postseason success from Portugal to the Philippines at the Lexus Pipe Masters. Pipeline will once again crown surfing’s World Champion beginning December 8 through 20, and it’s all…
