What's up

Highlights Day 1 Top Ranked Challengers Go Hammer, Qualification Dreams Within Grasp Ezekiel Lau, João Chianca, Liam O'Brien and more keep qualification dreams alive in a wild day of crazy wedges and grindy conditions. In Saquarema, the top Challenger Series surfers will face off against the very stars they’re trying to join. They’ll shoot to upset Gabriel Medina, Miguel Pupo, and Jadson Andre and seize their spot alongside them on the Championship Tour. Only two events remain in the battle for Championship Tour qualification. With three surfers already locking up their place on the 2023 tour, seven men's and five women’s spots are still up for grabs when the best up-and-coming surfers head to Brazil. Watch the Corona Saquarema Pro presented by Banco Do Brasil live November 1-8 on worldsurfleague.com. #wsl For More Visit: http://www.worldsurfleague.com/

IMMERSION: Joao Chianca Tahiti Edit The saga of João Chianca (aka "Chumbinho") has to be regarded as one of this year’s biggest storylines in professional competition surfing. A young, promising rookie qualifies for the CT, deals with what many critics have called "a less-than-fair seeding system," puts on some of the season’s best heats in a range of conditions, and quickly vanishes from tour due to the World Surf League's new mid-year cut. Chumbinho’s misfortune left many of us wishing we could have seen him surf a CT venue where he was sure to shine — Tahiti. Thanks to this edit "Immersion," our wish is granted! He is riding CI Pro and Happy Traveler. https://cisurfboards.com/products/ci-pro https://cisurfboards.com/products/happy-traveler-1 Film by Gui Sodre

Meet WSL Surfer João Chianca Meet WSL surfer João Chianca and get a deeper look at what drives him in and out of the water. As the biggest celebration of surfing on tour, Rio is as much about the fans on the beach as the surfers in the water. Their adoration for the Brazilian athletes is unrivaled and there’s no setting like this in the sport. It will be a test for Gabriel Medina, Tatiana Weston-Webb, Filipe Toledo, and every surfer on tour to block out the pressure and focus on the fight for the WSL Final 5. #wsl
