Finals Day at the Noosa Festival of Surfing delivered everything — flawless conditions at First Point, a packed beach, and an incredible showcase of surfing across every division.

From the legends to the next generation, the level of surfing across the board was nothing short of world-class.

The Logger Pro divisions brought timeless style to the finals stage, with Declan Wyton taking out the men’s with a standout 18.17 total, and Sophia Culhane winning the women’s in a close, high-quality final.

In the Twin Fin, Tim Bain edged a stacked field with a 14.33 total, just ahead of Micha Margieson and Ashton Pignat in one of the most exciting finals of the day.

Across the age divisions, the depth of talent and legacy of the sport was on full display:

Jack Norton took out the Over 40s
Glen Gower claimed the Over 55s and backed it up with a win in the Old Mal (Masters)
Tony Abood won the Over 65s

Earle Page took the Over 75s in a tight tiebreak finish
Chris Prewitt won the Over 50s
Matt Chojnacki edged a close win in the Old Mal (Mixed)
