The Surf100 Finale Is Coming to Oceanside — You Decide Who Wins

There’s $100,000 and a couple of JS surfboards on the line.

Last time we did this, Eithan Osborne was the sole recipient of a ceremonial bath consisting of filtered water, malted barley, unmalted cereals and corn, hops, and yeast.

Pacificos rained over the Surf100 California 2025 victor after he beat Bobby Martinez, Julian Wilson, and Sebastian Williams in the final. Kelly thought he was overscored. How dare he criticize our judging panel (you). Fact of the matter is that Eithan took home an XXL $100,000 cheque.

For those of you in and around Oceanside this Wednesday, September 9, 2026, we’ll be screening the Surf100 Challenge Series Presented by Pacifico Finale live at JS Garage, and our finalists will be present.

As in previous iterations, the final 100 minutes of surfing this season — courtesy of Noa Deane, Joel Parkinson, Dimitri Poulos, and Dakoda Walters — have already been filmed. But who takes this year’s title is pretty much up to you, the viewer and esteemed Premium member.

Your membership automatically grants you Surf100 judging duties. You’ll be scoring each finalist’s wave in real time. And, for your trouble, one of you will head home with a brand new surfboard from JS Industries.

How, you may ask? We’ll take the average score for each wave from all of our audience judges. The person whose scores are closest to that average throughout the entire event gets the board.

And because we’re rewarding both good judgement and dumb luck, another person in attendance at JS Garage will take home a second surfboard via a random draw.

Everyone else gets free food from Shoots, Koakai and Fireball Pizzeria, free Stab merch, and Pacificos while supplies last.

Looking forward to seeing you there.
