when you catch a wave. Bethany trains for the competition while rekindling her friendship with Alana and enters the national championship. During the competition she performs respectably, though she is still chasing third place. Suddenly, with only minutes left on the clock, the waves die down and all the surfers can only loiter, waiting for the waves to start back up. Tom's belief in his daughter's instinct is proven when she is the only one to sense a big wave forming, and she alone paddles out. When it forms, the others cannot get out in time, and she catches it just as the horn sounds. If it is in time, she will win, but the judges rule that the time has expired. Malina is the winner, but she has finally gotten over her differences with
Bethany, inviting her up on the platform to share her victory. Bethany thanks Malina for never taking it easy on her and saying she’s a tough competitor. Malina responds that nobody is as tough as Bethany.

They discovered that the incident had strained the family, that family members questioned their Christian faith, and that Bethany Hamilton struggled with her physical appearance and how boys would perceive her. The media attention on the family was described by Brookwell as "a second shark attack" that had made their lives uncomfortably public.
