Thursday, October 16, 2025, Gáldar, Gran Canaria, Spain.
The conditions in Gáldar were excellent, with no wind and great waves, just like yesterday.
A standout performance by the Canarian athletes deserves special mention, as many qualified for the main event, showcasing the tremendous potential of this discipline.
It was a spectacular day where the high level of competition made it a thrilling experience for fans in the stands and on the cliffs of the Frontón, as well as for the thousands watching via streaming who enjoyed the best bodyboarding show in the world.
- Round 2 and 3 Men’s Division
The fantastic weather allowed for another amazing bodyboarding session, just like Wednesday, where Daniel Quintana emerged as one of the stars by earning the day’s highest score with a 9.25 for a wave that featured a tube, a backflip, and a roll, which earned him applause from all the fans present.
Due to safety concerns, the event’s technical committee decided to halt the competition in the fourth heat of round three, as the waves had grown large and the low tide posed a significant risk to the athletes’ safety.
Once the remaining four heats of round three are completed, the 16 qualified riders will face off in the decisive stage of the competition against the 16 riders already ranked, the best in the world in bodyboarding. This includes six athletes still in the running for the title of the new world king.
- Round 3 Junior Men’s Division
The juniors continue their quest to become world champions.
