"It's definitely a very different feeling this win. There was a real emotional build up coming back here this year.

“The last couple of years I haven’t been getting the results I wanted, but more importantly I wasn’t having fun. Surfing is the most beautiful sport in the world and if you’re not having fun surfing then there’s something wrong. I had to really restart and regain my mindset. I did that by being close to my family and my loved ones and it’s because of them that I got back to having fun and being hungry like I used to be. This year I’ve been out there to win it and if it doesn’t happen it’s all good.” - Jeremy Flores
