Break the Surface – Season 2022 – From Neusiedl to Vieste in a Battle for Titles

The 2022 Freestyle Pro Tour season opener at Surf Opening, Lake Neusiedl delivered a stacked 40-rider fleet, including some of the world's best, such as Steven van Broeckhoven, Yentel Caers, and Jacopo Testa, plus the first-ever women’s competition at the event. Despite light winds early on, conditions built through the day for an action-packed single elimination. Maaike Huvermann dominated the women’s fleet, while Jacopo Testa claimed the men’s win. With no wind for the double, those results stood. The tour then headed to Vieste, Italy, where big swell and clean ramps set the stage for a dramatic showdown. Yentel Caers took the single, but Testa fought back in the double to win an insanely close superfinal. With later events cancelled or postponed, the season ended early—Jacopo Testa and Maaike Huvermann crowned 2022 Freestyle Pro Tour Champions.
