Kolohe Andino won both the U16 and U18 Boys titles in a competition loaded with high performances and spectacular maneuvers. Following in the footsteps of Billabong teammate Keanu Asing, Andino won both his own age group and the division above, both is down to the wire races. The last final of the day had the entire crowd entranced as Billabong teammate Evan Thompson from Florida made a powerful run for the top spot, falling just short of Kolohe's amazing performance.

In the Girls division Billabong riders did themselves proud as well, with U12 Frankie Harrer taking a 3rd, U18 Courtney Conlogue taking 2nd, and U16 Catherine Clark ripping her way to a first place finish.
