Surfing's one of the few sports that you look ahead to see what's behind.

Make sure your worst enemy doesn't live between your two ears.

I do need to travel with a purpose, though. I can't go somewhere to just hang out with friends.

There needs to be a reason to go, so you go deeper into whatever place you're visiting to find those unforgettable experiences.

Fortunately, I was given an incredible foundation from my independent mother. She showed me what was possible from a strong, loving woman.

I need a big wave to really excel. The smaller stuff is a bit like...ballet for me.
