Nic Rapa joins elite company with his 5th Overall PWT title!
Ethell comes from behind to win her first title!
HIGHAM WINS STOP 3
Tyler Higham attacked the unique format and used his stylish, technical mastery to take the top spot in Stop 3. By winning the Double Up category with a wrapped nose grab double KGB, taking second in the 3-trick line category, and third in the Best Trick category, Tyler proved how well-rounded of a rider he is. For his efforts he takes home first place and another PWT guitar to add to his collection. Just behind Tyler in 2nd place was Maxime Roux, followed in 3rd by Nic Rapa.
ETHELL WINS STOP 3
Meagan Ethell added to her list of amazing career accomplishments on Friday by winning Stop 3 in the Pro Women Wakeboard division presented by Liquid Force. She was followed in second place by Zahra Kell and in third by Euge de Armas. Coming into Stop 3 ten points behind Euge for the overall title, Meagan needed to finish first and have Euge finish third or lower. After finding herself in third place after the Best Trick category, Meagan dug deep and came out on top in both the Double Up and 3-Trick Line categories, vaulting her to the top spot. Needless to say, Pro Women’s return to the PWT this season was more than a smashing success. All the competitors threw down in each stop, showcasing just how far women’s wakeboarding has progressed.
LAMBERT SWEEPS 2026 Season!
Jett Lambert made it a clean sweep for the 2026 PWT season, taking his third win in a row, and in so doing, also took home his fourth consecutive Overall PWT title. It’s safe to say that Jett is a dominant force in wakesurfing these days. The only questions left to answer are, 1) can anybody catch him? And, 2) does he have as many PWT guitars as his longtime mentor, Sean Silveira?
JR PRO MEN THROW DOWN
Max SAIA WINS STOP 3, KANE WARD TAKES OVERALL SEASON TITLE
The overall 2026 Jr Pro title went to Kane Ward, who finished with a second in Stop 1, a win in Stop 2, and a fourth in Stop 3. It’s easy to see from looking at the progression of this young riders that the future of wakeboarding is in a great spot.
