The World Title was on the line at Lowers, and surfing’s finest were all in town for the main event. The days leading up to the first ever Rip Curl WSL Finals gave us lineups packed with talent and tension — follow along as we filmed the likes of Carissa Moore, Italo Ferreira, Gabriel Medina, Steph Gilmore, Kelly Slater and more heading into the 2021 title showdown in San Clemente.

People Watching is a fly-on-the-wall experience and an unfiltered view of professional surfing from the inside. Enjoy the behind-the-scenes perspectives from the cobblestones at Lower Trestles — it’s as close as you can get to “being there” without getting sand in your shoes.

The Top 10 Highest Scoring Waves From The Rip Curl WSL FInals

With all-time, six-to-eight-foot southern hemi bombs pouring through the Lower Trestles lineup and absolutely stellar, glassy, blue-bird conditions from start-to-finish, the performance of all of the WSL Final 5 surfers was inspired and elevated.

Countdown the top scoring waves featuring surfing from 2021 World Champs Gabriel Medina and Carissa Moore, as well as rivals Filipe Toledo and Conner Coffin.

For Medina, this is his third World Title and puts him amongst some very heavy company. He joins surfers such as Tom Curren, Andy Irons and Mick Fanning with three Titles. The only other surfers also in this club are Mark Richards, with four Titles, and Kelly Slater, who holds surfing's record with a remarkable 11 Titles.

For Moore, this marks her fifth World Title and a successful defense of her 2019 Title, effectively making this the first time in her already storied career that she's won back-to-back championships. It also caps off what may be one of the most successful seasons in the history of professional surfing which also saw her capture the first-ever Olympic gold medal for surfing.

🏄‍♂️ The BEST of Gabriel Medina 🇧🇷 at the Olympics

Brazil's two-time world champion, Gabriel Medina was in red-hot form this season making five out of six WSL championship Tour finals. In two of those he came away with the win. Though being one of the hot favourites on the first ever Olympic surfing title, Medina was ultimately defeated by Australia's Owen Wright who won the bronze medal. Nevertheless, Medina gave us some breathtaking moments at #Tokyo2020, that will be remembered. Enjoy watching the best of Gabriel Medina at the Olympics!
