Mauruuru Teahupo’o, thank you for grounding me with your beauty, Humbling me with your power. If I would have told little Brisa she would make the final at Chopes I don’t think she would have believed me - let alone to share it with a woman who embraces all the characteristics this place has to offer, humility, courage, strength. @courtneyconlogue A true honor to stand among these talented individuals and stand amongst the women that got to compete here for the first time in 16 years. Just like this small village at the end of the road has shown me the true meaning of unity and simplicity I’m constantly reminded of my gratitude for my own small village that supports my dreams. Thank you to all my Tahitian family/brothers, @lorenzotahiti for taking me under his wing/pumping me up @terevadavid @hawaiisurfandperformance , my parents @hennymama @hennessyfishing , And to these incredible humans preparing me for this moment @astallings88 @microsurfacademy @ingridseiple @mark__visser @mikeduff17, my sponsors, my incredible boards @gpangsurf @tcsurfboards and to my Costa Rican family this one is for you!❤️ Teahupoo gracias por inspirarme con tu belleza, Humillarme con tu poder. Si le hubiera dicho a la pequeña Brisa que llegaría a la final en Tahiti , no creo que me hubiera creído. Al igual que este pequeño pueblo al final del camino me ha mostrado el verdadero significado de la unidad y la sencillez, constantemente recuerdo mi gratitud por mi propio pequeño pueblo de personas que apoyan mis sueños. Gracias a mi familia, amigos y Costa Rica, este es para ustedes!❤️🇨🇷
