These highlights feature surfing from Gabriel Medina, Filipe Toledo, Julian Wilson, Kelly Slater, Carissa Moore, Lakey Peterson, Stephanie Gilmore, Grffin Colapinto, Owen Wright, Yago Dora, Kanoa Igarashi and Sebastian Zeitz.

Pumping April PIPELINE Continues, GABRIEL MEDINA + ITALO Shredding At Home In Brazil | SURF BREAKS

NORTH SHORE ON THE COOK

Hard to imagine a better place to be quarantined right now than the North Shore. The swells have been pouring in along the Seven Mile Miracle, and the local crew has been scoring. Buddies Nathan Florence and Koa Rothman have been psyching on the best April Pipe conditions since, well, ever ... The other Koa … Koa Smith … has also been in on the action.

TYLER WRIGHT ON SURF OFFS

Earlier this week, WSL CEO Erik Logan unveiled a new vision for how World Champs will be decided starting next year. It's going to go down during a one-day surf-off with the winner take all … and 2x World Champ Tyler Wright is fired up.

WSL REWIND: FRANCE 2014

And while we're on the subject of Tyler Wright this week WSL Rewind is flashing back on the 2014 Roxy Pro France and Wright's near perfect performance in the Final. And don't miss John John Florence's demonstrative performance in the all-time Hossegor conditions as he goes on to take only the second win of his CT career.

SURFRIDER WINS IN SUPREME COURT

And in the good news department, the Maui Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation just won a big decision in the United States Supreme Court. In a 6-3 ruling, the court stood in defense of the Clean Water Act. This is a big win for Maui, and sets precedence for the protection of other coastlines.ITALO TURNS UP THE HEAT AT HOME

Italo Ferreira has been posted up at home in Brasil riding out this crazy storm. And with surfing still permitted in his area, he just dropped a new edit he's calling "Rough Times." Shot in black and white, it showcases the World Champ keeping the vibes up and making the most of the wedges at his local beachbreak.

MEDINA IN BEAST MODE

And from one Brasilian World Champ to another, pre-lockdown Gabriel Medina was in beast mode at home at Maresias. Barrels, full-rotation airs, big power hacks, his surfing is nothing short of mind blowing. And how about that new black spray on those Cabianca surfboards?

JOAN DURU'S COMEBACK

Last September Joan Duru broke his collarbone surfing a Portugal slab called "Crazy Left". Right before the beaches in France were closed, he was well on his way to recovery, back charging crazy double-overhead tubes. And for more from Hossegor, starting on Wednesday WSL Rewind will be dipping into the 2014 Quiksilver and Roxy Pro.

HBD JEREMY FLORES AND ROSY HODGE

And finally, a very happy birthday to a couple of our favorite people, Jeremy Flores and Rosy Hodge. Hope you guys are having a great day.
