Ethan Ewing showed no signs of the injuries he sustained just a month ago, and was on the brink of snatching a WSL title at Lower Trestles until a Brazilian got the better of him in the final.
A slice of Brazilian brilliance has ended Ethan Ewing’s incredible world surfing title push, the Australian finishing runner-up to Filipe Toledo at the WSL finals a month after breaking his back.
Ewing then silenced the masses on the sand who’d gathered to cheer home San Clemente product and No.2 seed Griffin Colapinto, winning 17.10 to 15.96. The sets dried up in their second heat, Ewing’s decision not to complete an earlier ride costing him when a late 7.67 points left him needing only a five-point score to send the final into a deciding third rubber.
