“I really like the feel of the area, it reminds me of home.
“The waves were super fun, Billy had been surfing really well all weekend and it feels awesome to get another win this year.”
Ewing’s single highest score from the for victory.
In the girls’, India Robinson took her second career WSL Pro Junior title over Robinson and Callister, with the lead changing several times throughout the matchup.
