After winning the first world championship event in Barcares, France earlier this year my sights were set on the world title. Coming into the Tarifa event I had a lot of pressure on me to do well. We waited for weeks for the strong LEVANTE to come through and it finally did. The conditions were extremely strong and also very gusty. I gave it my all in every single heat with a few epic trick and some bad crashes along the way. Ultimately I didn't make it to the final and lost my chances at the World Title.
Vice World Champion for me this year. Going to keep training and keep pushing. Can't wait for some upcoming projects and competitions. Thank you everyone for the ongoing support.
