I just returned from an all time week of laughs and waves while hanging out on the lovely Jersey shore. Sadly there was no Snookie sightings and the Situation wasn’t fist bumping during heats of the bel mar pro, but we did score some super fun little waves during the contest. I stayed at the Schmidt’s house with a bunch of other junior competitors which was right on the sand of a really fun surfbreak. We had a great time laughing and surfing leading up to the event. When the comp started there were wedgie waist to chest high waves on offer and everybody in the comp was capitalizing on the fun conditions. Lucky for me, I managed to surf my way into the final of the event and watch a good friend Sam Orozco take the win. I couldn’t really find the waves that had scoring potential in the final so I had to settle with a 4th place finish. It wasn’t the result that I wanted but at the same time I was super stoked to make my second Junior final of the year. Cheers on the win Sammy and it’s on to the next comp which is the HIC Sunset Pro in October. But for now, we are heading off to the Mentawais on a surftrip. Keep you posted 😉
