What would a Vans Pipe Masters title mean to you?
It would mean the world to me and mean the world to my family, I have put a lot of time in at Pipe, and I’m looking forward to put so much more time in too, but to have a reward like this always is amazing.
Is there an advantage to being a goofy or regular footer at Pipeline?
I think there definitely is an advantage being goofy because it’s your frontside! But many people charged Pipe backside too!
We want you to remix an old classic. What turn do you best think suits the wave? Feel free to get creative in your thinking.
