In 2014, Tatiana Weston-Webb competed in Fiji as a wildcard, and her GoPro video topped the field of CT competitors -- including men and women -- in the GoPro Challenge. This time around, the sky's the limit as she lands in Fiji as a member of the elite Tour.
Having competed in last year's Fiji Women's Pro as an injury replacement, Tatiana Weston-Webb (HAW) is no stranger to elite-level competition there. Now a Tour rookie, she shared her goings-on upon her return to the islands.
I arrived in Fiji... Last night, but I'm going to Tavarua right now.
I'm traveling with... my father.. and... 7 Tim Carroll surfboards.
The trip from the airport to the island was... easy because we stayed a night on the mainland so we wouldn't have the worry of taking the boat taxi to the island at night.
On the way in I noticed... how beautiful and fun the people of Fiji are.

The first thing I did was... unpack my boards, set them up and surf.
I was on land... approximately an hour and a half before getting in the water.
Training today consisted of... stretching, surfing, getting used to my boards and probably get a massage.
I got really excited when... I saw the podium at Cloudbreak on the boat.
I wish that... it's 6-to-8 feet and glassy everyday for the comp!
One thing I miss already is... my mother and my bed.
The funniest thing I saw was... the boat driver making jokes that I didn't understand but laughed about anyways.
Last night before I went to bed I made sure to... remember to charge my GoPro... but I forgot.
Tomorrow, I'm going to... get barreled and relax ;)
