Kelly Slater topped the field of Hawaiians, hungry QS athletes and fellow CT surfers in true champion form to claim his first victory since the 2014 Volcom Pipe Pro.

Slater's victory, however, was not enough to overshadow standout performances from Jamie O'Brien, Makai McNamara, Bruce Irons and more throughout the three day event.
