Its crazy how much you can learn by just listening to people that succeed in their sport! I remember @r_arona talking about his life in combat and his road to victory! He said so many positive stuff like...Everything you do is never easy! Always try harder, push your limits...a lot of sacrifice was made to reach your goals!! Life is too short to give up now!!! Believe in yourself... Surfing on tour is not hard but it's not easy either! I guess it makes it easier when you do what you love!!! Always smile on whatever comes to you... Ready for Fiji

Yesterday was a day to remember! All the maps were saying the waves will be 6-8 foot but at the end it was twice the size! Take. Look at @jackrobinson_official board! It's a 6'6...I actually duck dive that wave !It almost took me back!! It has been a while since I've been that scared haha!! Always good to feel your heart beating faster then it usually does.the local boys were killing it @tikanui @matehau.tetopata @tahuraihenry Since I got Injured it was the first real swell that I surf!! I'm just thankful for the life I have but more for the people that surround me!!!! Love you all merry Christmas #Osss

Repost @teivajoyeux 10 years already and next year it will be 11 and we will never stop counting. 10 years that you left us, did you really left us?10 years i ve been thinking and rewind in my head the last day, the last morning we spent together in the car driving on our way to Pipeline, where everything stopped between you and me in this life. Didn t have the time to say good bye! Why Good bye? We will meet again!10 years i ve been happy and depressed or depressed and happy, drifting in my head, being nostalgic about our good days, with family , friends and the ocean.Well after this 10 years , now i can say to myself, i had to understand, to learn, to trust, to have faith in life again. Like going back to school, but the school of life. I know now what i don t want and what i want! I will always remember, you told me that i could do anything in life but just i had to go and do it.Since we were kids,we believed and we made some of ours dreams come true. Until i m on the other side

It has been raining a lot lately here on Oahu! It's pretty scary to surf in brown water! You never know what is going on under !we all know that sharks are everywhere and that we have to deal with it! In Polynesian tradition sharks represent protection in the water. On my mom side, our protector is called #parata!! The world is changing around us, less fishes,Sharks Feeding,That pushes Sharks to come Closer to The beach to Check for food!!! We just gonna have to be careful .#respect for #respect @badboyryry_

So excited to do some more of these!! #Hawaii is for sure my favourite stop on tour!! It's probably the only place in the world where it gets more crowded when the swell gets big! The whole surfing world is focusing on #oahu for 6 weeks! Some of us goes there for the triple crown, some goes to prove themselves that they can push their limits, some will try to win the #WaveOfTheWinter! Everyone has a different mission but mine will be to do my best on every event I entered on.... Bring it on #TripleCrownOfSurfing #808 @badboyryry_
