Foxall finished in first place in the Super Sprint 16-19 year age division leading throughout in the event which involved a 200 metre swim, a 9km bike ride and a 2km run.
The swim was challenging with a number of competitors plucked from the huge swell.
It was his second win in the Elite Energy Super Sprint series after taking out the Nowra leg of the series earlier this year.
Cowra Cobras were well represented at the Huskisson Festival which included races over a number of distances as well as a qualifying leg of the Sprint for this year’s World Championships to be held at the Gold Coast.
