SKOR.idRio Waida meraih hasil positif pada putaran kedua World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour (CT) 2025, Surf Abu Dhabi Pro. Atlet selancar ombak Indonesia ini keluar sebagai runner up.  

Rio berhasil mencapai final dalam event yang berlangsung di Hudayriat Island, Abu Dhabi, Uni Emirat Arab, 14-16 Februari. Sayang, ia belum berhasil mengeklaim kemenangan. 

Peselancar keturunan Indonesia-Jepang tersebut harus mengakui keunggulan rivalnya, Italo Ferreira pada partai final. Atlet asal Brasil mencetak poin lebih tinggi daripada Rio.

Ferreira cuma perlu dua ombak pertama dari jatah empat ombak untuk berada di atas angin. Peraih medali emas Olimpiade Tokyo 2020 ini total mencatatkan skor 17.27, sementara Rio mencetak 14.50.

Kendati tidak menjadi kampiun, hasil Surf Abu Dhabi Pro terbilang positif. Ini final pertama Rio Waida pada musim 2025 atau yang kedua dalam tiga event WSL terakhir yang diikuti.

Sebelumnya, pada ronde 9 WSL Championship Tour 2024, Fiji Pro, Rio pun menembus final. Ketika itu atlet 25 tahun tersebut juga finis sebagai runner up.         

“Saya merasa senang sekaligus kecewa. Tentu saja saya antusias karena mencapai final, tetapi di saat yang sama saya seperti, ‘Sial, saya kalah’. Saya senang motivasi untuk menang ada di sana,” kata Rio. 

“Saya tidak puas, jadi setelah ini saya akan pulang dan berlatih lebih keras untuk Portugal (putaran ketiga WSL CT 2025). Saya benar-benar senang berada di sini, Abu Dhabi luar biasa.”

Yang pasti, hasil di Abu Dhabi membuat Rio Waida terpacu untuk bisa mencapai tujuannya, yakni meraih kemenangan pertamanya di WSL Championship Tour untuk Indonesia. 

“Saya merasa jauh lebih lapar dan memberikan saya lebih banyak dorongan untuk terus berkompetisi dan bekerja lebih keras untuk berada di tempat yang saya inginkan,” tulis Rio di Instagram.

“Namun di saat yang sama saya merasa diberkati memiliki lebih banyak momen seperti ini. Sangat berarti bagi karier saya dan perjalanan serta upaya untuk menikmatinya. Terima kasih.”

Dengan status runner up di Abu Dhabi, Rio Waida berhak mendapat 7.800 poin. Ini membuatnya naik ke peringkat enam dalam klasemen umum WSL CT 2025. Ia kini mengoleksi 9,130 poin setelah dua putaran.

Selanjutnya, Rio akan mempersiapkan diri untuk menghadapi putaran ketiga CT, MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal di Supertubos, Peniche, Portugal, yang dijadwalkan bergulir pada 15-25 Maret 2025.

Untuk diketahui, musim ini, WSL CT terdiri dari 11 event reguler. Artinya masih ada sembilan putaran lagi. Nantinya lima peselancar ranking teratas klasemen, akan bersaing untuk menjadi juara dalam final di Fiji.
