The world’s best showed they were ready to go the distance, with Carissas Moore and Leonardo Fioravanti overcoming the obstacles to claim wins at the Surf City El Salvador Pro Presented by Corona Cero. An unstoppable Carissa Moore now claims back-to-back CT wins in 2026 with a remarkable run through the Surf City El Salvador Pro, culminating in a win over fellow CT veteran and two-time World Champ Tyler Wright. This marks Moore’s 30th-career CT victory and first in Central America. The five-time World Champion and Olympic Gold Medalist, Moore, continues to raise the bar for women’s power and progression, putting everything into last-minute heroics and excellent showcases. Then the event’s most consistent contender, Leonardo Fioravanti, completed his phenomenal surge all the way to a maiden CT victory over Italo Ferreira. Fioravanti’s third-career CT Final yielded his long-awaited breakthrough win after posting some of the event’s best performances from start to finish, including the event’s best single-score of a 9.00 in today’s Quarterfinals. Now, Moore moves to World No. 2, as Fioravanti jumps to World No. 3 heading to the VIVO Rio Pro with her family in full support. Plus, sensational runs at Punta Roca earned runner-up finishes for Wright and Ferreira.
