Pavones, Costa Rica local Leon Glatzer was invited to the innovative aerials tournament, Stab High, held annually in the waves of the BSR Cable Park wave pool in Waco, Texas.

The event is by invitation only and features the world's best aerialists. Last year's winner was Noa Deane and the highest aerial was by Eithan Osborne.

This year, the event, which will take place next Sunday, June 29, has 20 guests, including Mason Ho, Matt Meola, Chippa Wilson, Balaram Stack and Noa Deane himself, among others.

The event will be broadcast live but there is a $14 fee to watch it.

Tickets are also on sale, with admission prices ranging from $30 to $175.

The format will allow each surfer to surf 11 waves, adding a maximum of 50 points for each side. Those who get closest to 100 (50 left + 50 right) will be the winners.
