Oscar “Pawi” Chino prevailed by winning the fourth stop of the Surfing Acapulco Contest & Clinic that took place this past Sunday, March 9th at Los Cuates de Alex Restaurant at Playa Bonfil in Acapulco.

This fourth stop kicks off the second round of these clinics, where, with the new scores, those who have competed in both events in the open category will shoot to the top of the rankings.

For “Pawi” Chino, this is his first performance in the circuit and showed off his skill as he passed each heat in first place, winning first place at this stop. He faced off in the final against Marcos Candela, Vicente “Chelo” Vega and the “king” of the waves, Rey Hernandez. The match was a good one and his opponents have raised the level of their tricks, showing higher degrees of difficulty that included aerials and reverse aerials, like the one that Rey Hernandez caught that brought him the highest score of the heat. Unfortunately, Hernandez committed interference, which subtracted points from his road to victory. Candela was the closest to this objective, followed by good tricks performed by “Chelo” Vega, at just 17 years old.

Since the competition was comprised of an open category, competitors between the ages of 15 to 46 competed. “Poseidon” was very accommodating that day, sending waves of up to 5 feet that most surfers took advantage of. Two other favorites fell by the wayside, including: Brandon Cabrera and Miguel Roque.
