Last minute pick help

It will be a surprise to no one that I've failed to make a video for Saquarema. But here are some excellent picks to win your league!

Women's

A

Caity Simmers x2

She's won back to back, and she's really really good.

B

Erin Brooks

Isabella Nichols

Erin has something to prove and she's done well here pre-CT. I like the way it suits Isabella's style. No one is hotter than Bettylou, but the conditions are super wonk.

C

Leaning Luana over Tati, but will definitely watch early to check current form.

Men's

A

Yago Dora 2x

Italo Ferreira

Everyone is going to pick Yago, but that's for good reason. Italo is soooo due for a good result, and he beat Yago in the final last year.

B

Filipe Toledo

Joel Vaughan

Griffin Colapinto

Jack Robinson

Also consider Jake Marshall, and Rio Waida

Filipe has multiple wins and is a Tier B steal. Joel Vaughan is heating up and has a CS 10 point ride here on his resume. Griffin and Jack would prefer better waves, but counting on their superior skill to get some wins if conditions allow.

C

Marco Mignot

Best remaining performer

I'm staying off Seth and Peterson here. Cleland is a wildcard with value, Alejo could advance, but ceiling is low, and I know absolutely nothing about Klaussner. If anyone else can't compete, hoping to see Herdy!
