17 x Podiums | 9 x Wins | 3 x Tour Leader Coming Into the Final Event

Date

The Simmer Style family has results that speak for themselves this season. Heading into the season finale in Chile, we have a track record of 17 podiums and 9 wins across Pozo, Tenerife, Wissant, Tiree and the Aloha Classic, in the Pro, Masters and junior divisions. Marc Paré is leading the Pro Men standings, and Ben Proffitt arrives leading the Masters division, while our young ripper from Spain, Dennis Kolb González, tops the U15 standings.

Stay tuned for the season finale in Chile, starting this Saturday.

Pozo, Spain

Pro Men | #2 Marc Paré

Marc’s best result at Pozo in his career. In a tight final against Philip Köster, Marc led into the final minute, but Köster’s Pozo skills secured the win on the buzzer.

Masters | #2 Ben Proffitt

Ben Proffit came out of the commentary booth to battle it out in the Masters and made it to the final against Lars Gobisch, John Skye and Michael Friedl. Although Proffit posted the higher jump score, it was not enough to overcome Gobisch placing him in a 2nd place.

Youth | U15 #1 Dennis | U13 #1 Eric

We’re really stoked to see the development of the Kolb González brothers from year to year. Yannik (14) competed in the U18 and the Pro Men’s qualifier this year. Following in Yannik’s footsteps, who won the U15 in 2025, Dennis (12) won the U15 this year, and the youngest shredder on the team, Eric (10), won the U13, pulling nice forwards in really marginal conditions. These brothers just keep getting better and better. Well done Yannik, Dennis and Eric.

El Medano, Spain

Pro Men | #1 Marc Paré

Marc Paré did again! In epic conditions with strong wind and logo high waves at El Médano, the Paré delivered a masterclass performance to claim his third consecutive victory at the Tenerife World Cup.

Masters | #1 Ben Proffitt | #2 Jochen Stoltz

El Médano served up another thrilling Masters final, this time between teammates Ben Proffit and local standout Jochen Stolz. Proffitt sealed the win with a standout 9.62-point wave including a perfect wave 360, a high-scoring tweaked pushloop and a stalled forward. Stolz fought hard, but he could not match Proffit’s performance.

 

Youth | Juniors #2 Yannik | U15 #1 Eric

The González brothers made their mark once again in Tenerife. Dennis Kolb González claimed back-to-back U15 titles in Tenerife, winning the category with a commanding score of 19.62 and riding, in the words of the PWA, “to a level far above his competitors”, stomping back loops and radical turns to seal the win. His younger brother Eric continued his breakout season on the world stage, while Yannik Kolb González claimed 3rd place in the U18 category, sailing consistently against a strong international field.

Wissant, France

Pro Men | #1 Marc Paré

Marc Paré came to Wissant sharing the tour lead with Philip Köster, whom he met in an epic final and beat to take the event win, leaving Wissant as World Tour Leader.

Tiree, Scotland

Pro Men | #3 Marc Paré

Marc Paré put on a masterclass in massive, down-the-line surf at Balevullin, reaching the final against Miguel Chapuis and Marino Gil. It earned him his fourth podium finish of the year and cemented his tour lead before he travelled to Maui for the Aloha Classic.

Masters | #1 Ben Proffitt | #2 Scotty McDowall | #3 Dave Horrocks

Ben Proffitt cleaned up at Tiree with 1st place in the Masters, 4th place in the Pro Men and 1st place in the UK Nationals. A result that put him in a comfortable lead on the Masters World Tour. The Masters final was a team battle between our UK Simmer riders; Proffitt, McDowall and Horrocks.

Youth | #2 Samual Wade | 2026 UK Youth Champion

Our new rising star on the UK team, Samuel Wade, also did well, taking 2nd place in the Junior Boys. Samual Wade also claimed the UK Youth Title for 2026.

Aloha Classic, Maui

Pro Men | #1 Marc Paré
It was a long event on Maui and the conditions were challenging, but it all came together on the last day. Paré sailed his way into the windsurfing history books, wave by wave and heat by heat, to win the Aloha Classic.

Masters | #1 Kai Katchadourian
2026 marks Kai’s 40th year as a Simmer Style team rider, which makes it extra special to claim the Aloha Classic win at his home break, Ho’okipa, for the second time.
