“It was a pretty close final, I chose to sit down the point a little closer to the shore as the waves seemed peaking a little better down the line. Cam didn’t seem to link it together on his first wave, which he caught out the back, so I paddled just decided to sit on the inside” Said James.
“It was really good surf out there and I just couldn’t land a couple of tricks which isn’t a good thing to do in a final. James surfed well all day and I’m stoked to have come second.
