i was watching some heats yesterday and i was so happy to see the kids making their name on the major leagues of surfing. Joshua Moniz made it to the top 16 of the hundred of top surfers in the world. all these experiences will make him a better competitor and even thought Fred Patacchia beat him this time, the day will come when Joshua will take out the kings of surfing. and i can’t wait to see it!
confidence is setting in. this once shy boy use to sit in the inside and watch the competition. now, the competition is watching him. look at Mitch Coleborn looking from behind. he must be thinking “oh shit, this young hawaiian kid just beat me.”
and Hiroto Ohhara is surely making a big statement for japan. he took out some top pros too on his way to the round of 16. good job boys!
