Patri McLaughlin wins the One Eye Kite Surf Pro

Mauritius: getting barreled with kite lines

Patri McLaughlin has conquered the One Eye Kite Surf Pro, at Le Morne, Mauritius, in epic swell conditions.

The ninth day of the holding period blessed wave riders with pristine ocean waves to crown the event champions. The powerful Cozzolino was pitted against the barrel-hunting McLaughlin in a final that saw several lead changes and some of the best tube rides of the event.

McLaughlin got off to a great start with an opening wave score of 6.83 to Cozzolino's 4.5. However, Cozzolino answered back with an 8.5 to give him the lead at the midpoint of the final.
