Day 3 of the Quatro Maui Pro delivered a full showcase of the sport's depth and future, as all Junior, Pro Junior, and Masters divisions were completed in clean head to logo high surf under light winds at the iconic Ho'okipa Beach Park.

Despite the lighter conditions, performance levels remained exceptional, with a blend of legendary names and rising stars stepping up to define the next generation of world-class wave riding.

In the Masters division, Keith Teboul delivered a commanding performance, winning by a clear 2.5-point margin. The Maui based legend, and driving force behind KT Surfing, showed his enduring class with powerful, fluid wave riding that set the benchmark for the field. He was joined on the podium by Paul Karaolides of Cyprus, known for his work with Fish Bowl Diaries, and France's Stephane Queniart, both delivering strong, stylish performances in challenging conditions.

The Pro Junior Girls division saw a dominant double victory from Belgium's Sol Degrieck, who claimed both the Pro Junior and Junior Girls titles with authority. Her performance continues to underline her position as one of the most exciting young talents in the sport. Australia's Sarah Kenyon, the reigning Junior and Pro Junior World Champion, pushed hard but had to settle behind Degrieck, while Japan's Natsuki Wakasa impressed across both divisions with consistent, high quality riding. In the Junior Girls, Wakasa was joined on the podium by fellow Japanese standout Fumi Akita.

In the Pro Junior Boys, Germany's Leon Maethner stood out with a composed and powerful performance to take the win, ahead of Japan's Ryu Noguchi and compatriot Anton Richter, highlighting the global depth of emerging talent.

The Junior Boys division delivered one of the biggest stories of the event, with Maui local Koa Fabbio producing a breakthrough performance to defeat reigning Junior World Champion Javier Escribano Toribio at Koa's home break. Backed by local knowledge and fearless execution, Fabbio's win electrified the beach and marked him as a name to watch for the future. Greece's Jason Papanikolaou completed the podium with a strong showing.

Day 3 at the Quatro Maui Pro was a powerful reminder of the sport's full spectrum - from legends still performing at the highest level to a new generation ready to take over.
