"It's super exciting to be starting the year at Bells Beach. I have heaps of experience surfing at Bells so I cant wait to get out there again" said Robinson. My main focus this year is winning a couple of Pro Junior events and then qualifying for the World Juniors, so I am hoping to start with a good result at home."
"The Subway Surf Series is an incredible way to gain experience and a great stepping stone into the Qualification series. There are some great locations with some awesome waves that give you a good understanding of all conditions."
