1
00:00:17,852 --> 00:00:20,187
Be on the Championship Tour
it has been my dream

2
00:00:20,271 --> 00:00:22,606
since he was eight years old.

3
00:00:26,068 --> 00:00:28,696
There you can win world titles.

4
00:00:29,905 --> 00:00:31,824
That's why I want to get there.

5
00:00:33,868 --> 00:00:37,246
There are few Hawaiians
who arrive at the World Tour.

6
00:00:37,747 --> 00:00:40,499
Native Hawaiian Representation Matters

7
00:00:40,624 --> 00:00:42,626
because it is our cultural heritage.

8
00:00:44,545 --> 00:00:47,757
You represent your people, your Iāhui.

9
00:00:48,257 --> 00:00:51,886
It would mean a lot to me
and my family participate in the tour.

10
00:00:53,012 --> 00:00:55,598
I think this next generation of girls

11
00:00:55,681 --> 00:00:58,017
is starting to stand out.

12
00:00:58,100 --> 00:00:59,268
They were always there,

13
00:00:59,894 --> 00:01:02,438
and now the world is discovering them.

14
00:01:03,105 --> 00:01:05,649
In Hawaii, we surf
the biggest waves in the world.

15
00:01:06,192 --> 00:01:09,069
You have to have courage and work hard.

16
00:01:09,612 --> 00:01:12,072
Moana Wong is one of the best

17
00:01:12,156 --> 00:01:15,284
tube surfers
of history, but the best.

18
00:01:16,994 --> 00:01:19,830
Women who come from Hawaii

19
00:01:19,914 --> 00:01:21,248
They surprise me.

20
00:01:21,582 --> 00:01:24,585
They are beautiful women,
talented, strong and intelligent

21
00:01:24,668 --> 00:01:26,629
that show their culture

22
00:01:26,712 --> 00:01:28,631
and celebrate their origin.

23
00:01:31,967 --> 00:01:34,637
SURFER GIRLS IN HAWAII

24
00:01:41,352 --> 00:01:43,145
My name is Moanalani.

25
00:01:43,229 --> 00:01:46,690
I am 23 years old and I am
from the North Shore of O'ahu.

26
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:52,112
I consider myself one of the best
women surfers of the world.

27
00:01:53,489 --> 00:01:54,490
ONE YEAR AGO

28
00:01:56,158 --> 00:01:57,368
Thanks, guys.

29
00:01:57,451 --> 00:02:02,039
We are in the final
of the Billabong Pro Pipeline.

30
00:02:02,164 --> 00:02:07,795
Carissa Moore, five times
world champion and olympic champion,

31
00:02:07,878 --> 00:02:11,590
will face the guest,
Moana Jones Wong.

32
00:02:12,049 --> 00:02:14,927
For the 2022 Pipe Pro,

33
00:02:15,386 --> 00:02:17,763
I received an invitation.

34
00:02:17,847 --> 00:02:20,975
"Guest" is a surfer
that is not on the World Tour,

35
00:02:21,058 --> 00:02:24,061
but he surfs regularly in that break

36
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:25,813
and is considered the best.

37
00:02:26,313 --> 00:02:27,231
Here we go.

38
00:02:29,275 --> 00:02:33,070
It's fun to watch her.
She is very good at drawing lines.

39
00:02:35,698 --> 00:02:40,244
Another surfer wave
from the North Coast, Moana Jones Wong.

40
00:02:41,412 --> 00:02:42,746
-Moana!
- Brilliant!

41
00:02:42,829 --> 00:02:46,584
This young phenomenon
of the North Coast advances

42
00:02:46,667 --> 00:02:48,252
on the Banzai Pipeline.

43
00:02:48,711 --> 00:02:50,921
It was my first competition in six years.

44
00:02:51,005 --> 00:02:53,924
I had to face
to multiple world champions

45
00:02:54,008 --> 00:02:55,843
and Olympic medalists.

46
00:02:55,926 --> 00:02:58,596
He comes out of the curtain. That's what we came to see!

47
00:02:58,679 --> 00:02:59,513
Good. Brilliant!

48
00:02:59,597 --> 00:03:01,807
Shall we baptize her "the queen of the Pipeline"?

49
00:03:01,891 --> 00:03:03,642
No. It's over.

50
00:03:03,726 --> 00:03:09,440
Moana Jones Wong just won!
on the Billabong Pro Pipeline!

51
00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:13,485
I won the first competition
important feminine in the Pipeline.

52
00:03:15,696 --> 00:03:18,365
Moana is a 45 kg person
very challenging.

53
00:03:19,158 --> 00:03:22,286
I would say Moana is "brutal."

54
00:03:22,369 --> 00:03:23,913
I don't know if I can say that.

55
00:03:23,996 --> 00:03:26,332
She is fearless and very skilled.

56
00:03:26,415 --> 00:03:28,083
Moana Jones is the queen.

57
00:03:28,167 --> 00:03:31,420
They call me "the queen of the Pipeline."

58
00:03:31,503 --> 00:03:34,924
It makes me uncomfortable to refer to myself
like the queen of the Pipeline.

59
00:03:35,007 --> 00:03:38,636
I want to prove
that I'm not only good at Pipe.

60
00:03:38,719 --> 00:03:43,974
But I am one of the best
surfers of the world in general.

61
00:03:47,853 --> 00:03:51,523
NORTH SHORE, O'AHU

62
00:03:55,235 --> 00:03:57,571
The North Shore of O'ahu
It is the mecca of surfing.

63
00:03:57,655 --> 00:03:58,989
Heavens!

64
00:03:59,073 --> 00:04:03,160
Surfers come here
to become famous.

65
00:04:07,373 --> 00:04:11,043
The best surfers
They won competitions in the Pipe.

66
00:04:12,878 --> 00:04:13,754
Hale'iwa

67
00:04:14,755 --> 00:04:15,631
and Sunset.

68
00:04:16,339 --> 00:04:20,344
If you succeed in those three waves
of the North Coast,

69
00:04:20,427 --> 00:04:22,053
you are one of the best.

70
00:04:22,513 --> 00:04:26,517
The competitors to beat will be
the girls I grew up surfing with.

71
00:04:27,434 --> 00:04:29,645
ONE WEEK BEFORE
FROM THE SUNSET PRO COMPETITION

72
00:04:29,728 --> 00:04:31,939
I love Sunset.

73
00:04:32,022 --> 00:04:32,856
Yes.

74
00:04:32,940 --> 00:04:35,609
It has a special and very strong break.

75
00:04:35,693 --> 00:04:37,319
Whether the surf

76
00:04:37,403 --> 00:04:40,197
or the bowl of water where it is bigger,

77
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:41,323
It's a good wave.

78
00:04:41,407 --> 00:04:43,951
Sunset is not a wave I have visited

79
00:04:44,076 --> 00:04:45,411
many times.

80
00:04:45,494 --> 00:04:48,789
But I tried to train a little here
last winter,

81
00:04:48,872 --> 00:04:52,376
and go there every day
these last two or three weeks

82
00:04:52,459 --> 00:04:55,129
It has been a different experience.

83
00:04:55,212 --> 00:04:58,090
Yes. I'm afraid of Sunset.
The waves are huge.

84
00:04:58,173 --> 00:04:59,758
I always avoid her.

85
00:05:00,509 --> 00:05:02,553
I'm nervous for Sunset.

86
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:07,933
I've been practicing,
But I get very nervous there.

87
00:05:10,894 --> 00:05:12,980
I'm not the favorite, so people

88
00:05:13,063 --> 00:05:16,108
He doesn't expect me to win or do well.

89
00:05:16,650 --> 00:05:20,571
I'm about to graduate from high school,
which takes a lot of my time.

90
00:05:20,654 --> 00:05:24,199
If I didn't go to school,
I could surf and train a lot more.

91
00:05:24,575 --> 00:05:25,576
I am Ēwelei'ula Wong.

92
00:05:25,659 --> 00:05:27,494
I'm from Wahiawa, O'ahu,

93
00:05:27,578 --> 00:05:29,955
and I'm 17 years old.

94
00:05:30,622 --> 00:05:32,666
Surfing is like my therapy.

95
00:05:33,709 --> 00:05:35,544
That's where I express myself.

96
00:05:36,086 --> 00:05:38,922
It's also where I feel
more self-confidence

97
00:05:39,006 --> 00:05:40,758
and I reach my full potential.

98
00:05:41,216 --> 00:05:45,054
When I cross
to a group of teenagers,

99
00:05:45,137 --> 00:05:46,680
I walk very strangely.

100
00:05:46,764 --> 00:05:50,308
But when I cross a group
of teenagers rowing,

101
00:05:50,392 --> 00:05:52,394
I feel very confident.

102
00:05:55,731 --> 00:05:59,485
Training is very important
to be a competitive surfer.

103
00:05:59,568 --> 00:06:01,487
Those little ones are very light.

104
00:06:01,570 --> 00:06:03,447
- I think that's the best.
- Yes.

105
00:06:03,822 --> 00:06:04,656
Yes.

106
00:06:06,366 --> 00:06:07,868
It's heavier than my...

107
00:06:07,951 --> 00:06:09,078
It's okay.

108
00:06:09,161 --> 00:06:11,830
The waves of the North Coast
They are very strong.

109
00:06:14,124 --> 00:06:15,584
They can be very dangerous.

110
00:06:16,502 --> 00:06:19,797
They'll crash you into the reef
and almost drown you.

111
00:06:20,547 --> 00:06:24,009
You must prepare yourself physically and mentally.

112
00:06:26,804 --> 00:06:28,680
Running with rocks is good exercise.

113
00:06:28,764 --> 00:06:30,140
- Yes.
-Who did it already?

114
00:06:30,224 --> 00:06:31,308
SURF COACH

115
00:06:31,391 --> 00:06:33,018
- Only a couple of times.
- Well.

116
00:06:33,102 --> 00:06:34,686
Only Ēwe has not done so.

117
00:06:34,770 --> 00:06:38,232
When they run with rocks and expend energy,

118
00:06:38,690 --> 00:06:41,610
increase lung capacity.

119
00:06:41,693 --> 00:06:43,654
I had many dives in the Pipe.

120
00:06:43,737 --> 00:06:46,406
I feel like I'm going to drown and pass out.

121
00:06:46,490 --> 00:06:48,826
When they're under the wave,

122
00:06:48,909 --> 00:06:51,328
they begin to despair,

123
00:06:51,411 --> 00:06:53,956
but they can control the situation.

124
00:06:54,331 --> 00:06:57,751
Try to relax,
because they will waste a lot of energy.

125
00:06:57,835 --> 00:06:59,378
- I'm excited.
- Yes.

126
00:06:59,461 --> 00:07:00,879
- Let's do it.
- I'm ready.

127
00:07:00,963 --> 00:07:04,216
These girls are women
strong and amazing.

128
00:07:09,221 --> 00:07:13,183
They are the next generation
of native hawaiian surfers,

129
00:07:13,267 --> 00:07:15,936
and they fill me with pride

130
00:07:16,019 --> 00:07:18,814
and to all those who came before me.

131
00:07:36,707 --> 00:07:39,918
Training in the water
It's a different challenge.

132
00:07:40,002 --> 00:07:42,504
Sometimes, on a mental level,
It can be a big challenge.

133
00:07:42,588 --> 00:07:44,339
You work with Mother Nature,

134
00:07:44,423 --> 00:07:46,258
and you can't tell him what to do.

135
00:07:54,224 --> 00:07:55,308
It's a hard exercise.

136
00:07:57,352 --> 00:07:58,896
They brought a rock

137
00:07:58,979 --> 00:08:01,023
and they had to return to the sea and find another one for me

138
00:08:01,106 --> 00:08:02,900
because I was trying to lift it

139
00:08:02,983 --> 00:08:04,109
and I turned around.

140
00:08:04,193 --> 00:08:06,987
I think the rock was heavier than me.

141
00:08:24,630 --> 00:08:26,215
Here we go. Quarter finals.

142
00:08:26,298 --> 00:08:27,549
QUARTERFINALS

143
00:08:27,633 --> 00:08:29,551
Rocky Canon brings you the action.

144
00:08:29,635 --> 00:08:31,720
This is the World Surf League.

145
00:08:31,803 --> 00:08:35,182
Hawaii Region. Sunset Pro.

146
00:08:35,599 --> 00:08:37,768
The conditions are not
the expected ones, Rocky,

147
00:08:37,851 --> 00:08:40,102
for a competition at Sunset Beach.

148
00:08:40,187 --> 00:08:43,774
The small waves
They demand more from surfers.

149
00:08:45,192 --> 00:08:49,196
In five, four, three, two,

150
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:50,572
ekahi.

151
00:08:53,116 --> 00:08:56,036
Here we go. Sleeve number one.

152
00:08:56,578 --> 00:08:59,498
There are three levels of classification
in the WSL.

153
00:08:59,581 --> 00:09:01,833
First is the Classification.

154
00:09:02,417 --> 00:09:05,087
Every SC event
It is worth different amount of points.

155
00:09:05,170 --> 00:09:08,257
A very crowded sleeve
in these women's quarterfinals.

156
00:09:08,340 --> 00:09:11,760
The heats will be very competitive.

157
00:09:12,177 --> 00:09:14,930
Sunset is key
to qualify for the next phase,

158
00:09:15,013 --> 00:09:16,515
the Challenger Series.

159
00:09:16,598 --> 00:09:19,476
There you are one step away from the World Tour.

160
00:09:19,977 --> 00:09:23,021
The World Tour is the goal
and everyone's dream.

161
00:09:23,814 --> 00:09:29,069
Australia, South Africa, Portugal,
Brazil, everywhere.

162
00:09:29,820 --> 00:09:32,030
I'm first in Hawaii.

163
00:09:32,489 --> 00:09:34,992
Very soon, everything will get complicated.

164
00:09:35,867 --> 00:09:39,413
I am third in the ranking
to qualify for the Challenger.

165
00:09:40,163 --> 00:09:43,875
I'm seventh.
He probably won't qualify this year.

166
00:09:43,959 --> 00:09:49,756
All girls are surfers
of excellence on the North Coast.

167
00:09:50,757 --> 00:09:53,218
I am ninth in the Hawaii region.

168
00:09:53,302 --> 00:09:55,637
The first five
They go to the Challenger Series.

169
00:09:56,013 --> 00:10:00,142
We'll see what happens with the surfer
Hawaiian Maluhia Kinimaka,

170
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,813
member of the legendary
Kinimaka surfer clan.

171
00:10:05,230 --> 00:10:08,692
Maluhia is a very graceful surfer.

172
00:10:08,775 --> 00:10:10,235
It's like me.

173
00:10:10,319 --> 00:10:12,571
We both got away from surfing.

174
00:10:12,654 --> 00:10:14,948
We went to university. We live life.

175
00:10:15,032 --> 00:10:17,701
They gave us a second chance and we came back.

176
00:10:20,245 --> 00:10:23,540
my name is
Maluhiahali'ōkaua'iepilialoha Kinimaka.

177
00:10:24,499 --> 00:10:26,418
I was born and raised in Anahola, Kaua'i.

178
00:10:26,501 --> 00:10:29,004
My dad always said:
"In this life, your kuleana

179
00:10:29,087 --> 00:10:32,424
or responsibility
What did you inherit from your family?

180
00:10:32,507 --> 00:10:34,760
is to be a water person. Don't say:

181
00:10:34,843 --> 00:10:37,846
'I'm a shortboard surfer
or longboard'.

182
00:10:37,929 --> 00:10:41,266
Your responsibility is to have
a general knowledge

183
00:10:41,350 --> 00:10:42,934
of all abilities."

184
00:10:44,436 --> 00:10:47,814
The water people
They can't get away from the sea.

185
00:10:48,273 --> 00:10:49,649
Especially the Hawaiians.

186
00:10:50,359 --> 00:10:52,110
They are your roots.

187
00:10:52,194 --> 00:10:53,445
FATHER OF MALUHIA

188
00:10:54,321 --> 00:10:56,907
At school,
There was a day of parent visits.

189
00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:58,825
And the other parents said:

190
00:10:58,909 --> 00:11:02,954
"I work in insurance"
or "I am an engineer",

191
00:11:03,372 --> 00:11:07,209
and my dad said, "I surf big waves."

192
00:11:07,292 --> 00:11:09,586
The children around me said:

193
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:11,713
"What? That's great!"

194
00:11:11,797 --> 00:11:13,423
That's when I thought:

195
00:11:13,507 --> 00:11:16,718
"I think my dad has
something special." Know?

196
00:11:18,261 --> 00:11:20,680
My dad is Titus Kinimaka.

197
00:11:20,764 --> 00:11:23,475
Grew up in the seventies and eighties

198
00:11:23,558 --> 00:11:26,478
and created some of the techniques
tow surfing

199
00:11:26,561 --> 00:11:28,105
that we see today.

200
00:11:28,188 --> 00:11:29,398
HAWAII IN CALIFORNIA

201
00:11:29,481 --> 00:11:31,316
It's kind of a legend.

202
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:35,445
He taught me everything I know about the ocean.

203
00:11:36,905 --> 00:11:40,617
I think Maluhia went into the water
the day after being born.

204
00:11:40,700 --> 00:11:43,370
He got on the board and didn't get off again.

205
00:11:44,871 --> 00:11:47,833
When I was 11 or 12 years old,

206
00:11:47,915 --> 00:11:52,045
They invited me to train for the first time
with the junior Olympic surf team.

207
00:11:52,129 --> 00:11:57,300
I thought, "Maybe I'm doing it right."

208
00:11:59,219 --> 00:12:00,637
QUARTERFINALS
MANGA 1

209
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,848
The road to the semifinals begins, Joe.

210
00:12:02,931 --> 00:12:05,517
There is a lot of competition.

211
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,604
They are sleeves of four people,
and the first two pass the round.

212
00:12:26,872 --> 00:12:28,457
Well, let's see Maluhia.

213
00:12:28,957 --> 00:12:31,209
It must gain speed.

214
00:12:32,627 --> 00:12:34,254
He leaves the base.

215
00:12:34,337 --> 00:12:37,841
Connect the countercurrent,
but it cannot be maintained.

216
00:12:38,758 --> 00:12:41,011
Our star, Gabriela Bryan.

217
00:12:41,094 --> 00:12:43,346
Here it comes, it's Red.

218
00:12:44,681 --> 00:12:46,725
Rojo's first score: 8.5.

219
00:12:47,309 --> 00:12:49,311
Red, you came first with 8.5.

220
00:12:49,394 --> 00:12:53,231
Maluhia Kinimaka is fourth.
You need a 6.35.

221
00:12:58,945 --> 00:13:01,781
When you ride a wave, you go from zero

222
00:13:01,865 --> 00:13:03,950
at 40 km per hour.

223
00:13:04,034 --> 00:13:07,913
You are like a container
that channels energy.

224
00:13:08,497 --> 00:13:09,915
That was Maluhia.

225
00:13:11,041 --> 00:13:12,792
His second round.

226
00:13:12,876 --> 00:13:16,171
Need 6.35
to be among the first two.

227
00:13:16,254 --> 00:13:19,799
Azul scored 6.5 in the last wave.
Blue, you came second.

228
00:13:22,052 --> 00:13:25,889
This will be the best result
from Maluhia on the regional tour.

229
00:13:25,972 --> 00:13:27,516
Will enter the semi-final

230
00:13:27,599 --> 00:13:29,976
if it can be maintained
the last 20 seconds.

231
00:13:30,435 --> 00:13:33,688
Five, four, three, two,

232
00:13:33,772 --> 00:13:34,814
ekahi.

233
00:13:36,566 --> 00:13:40,195
This is how the first quarterfinal ends.

234
00:13:40,779 --> 00:13:44,908
Gabriela Bryan and Maluhia Kinimaka

235
00:13:44,991 --> 00:13:46,993
They advance to the semifinals.

236
00:13:47,327 --> 00:13:49,079
I don't think it was my best day.

237
00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:51,998
I'm happy to have passed,
but I think surfers

238
00:13:52,082 --> 00:13:54,918
they always think:
"What can I improve for next time?"

239
00:13:55,001 --> 00:13:58,505
It's harder than it seems
find good waves.

240
00:13:58,797 --> 00:14:00,090
But it's very fun.

241
00:14:00,173 --> 00:14:02,050
Semifinal. I'm excited.

242
00:14:07,138 --> 00:14:09,975
I think I know what I should do up my sleeve.

243
00:14:10,308 --> 00:14:14,271
My goal is to continue improving
in each competition,

244
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:16,022
don't get discouraged

245
00:14:16,106 --> 00:14:20,110
and become
into a more astute athlete and surfer.

246
00:14:20,193 --> 00:14:23,446
You feel vulnerable

247
00:14:23,822 --> 00:14:26,491
and powerful at the same time.

248
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:30,453
MOANA'S PARENTAL HOUSE

249
00:14:54,561 --> 00:14:57,397
Moana always stood out.

250
00:14:59,691 --> 00:15:02,861
When I was a girl,
my husband bought two small boards from them

251
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:04,904
in a surf shop.

252
00:15:04,988 --> 00:15:06,656
He barely stopped...

253
00:15:06,740 --> 00:15:07,824
MOANA'S MOTHER

254
00:15:07,907 --> 00:15:10,410
...we knew it was special.

255
00:15:10,493 --> 00:15:11,911
Very talented.

256
00:15:12,412 --> 00:15:16,625
At nine years old, it was obvious that he had
a higher level of consciousness...

257
00:15:16,708 --> 00:15:17,959
MOANA'S FATHER

258
00:15:18,043 --> 00:15:20,045
...of your body and the ocean.

259
00:15:20,962 --> 00:15:23,048
It's wonderful to see your daughter

260
00:15:23,131 --> 00:15:27,344
push the limits of surfing
at the highest level.

261
00:15:34,517 --> 00:15:35,477
End.

262
00:15:36,144 --> 00:15:37,437
That was crazy.

263
00:15:38,104 --> 00:15:40,065
I am very close to my family.

264
00:15:40,148 --> 00:15:43,026
They love surfing and, when I compete,

265
00:15:43,109 --> 00:15:44,444
They always support me.

266
00:15:44,527 --> 00:15:47,489
When I ride a wave, they start screaming.

267
00:15:47,572 --> 00:15:49,240
Even if it's not a good one.

268
00:15:50,659 --> 00:15:52,702
I'm the loudest in the family.

269
00:15:52,786 --> 00:15:53,828
MOANA'S GRANDPARENTS

270
00:15:53,912 --> 00:15:55,997
"Come on, yeah!" That's what it's about.

271
00:15:56,081 --> 00:15:58,667
If they don't hear that, they can't do anything.

272
00:16:00,669 --> 00:16:02,587
QUARTERFINALS
MANGA 2

273
00:16:02,671 --> 00:16:05,006
We are in the second quarterfinal.

274
00:16:10,053 --> 00:16:12,305
Moana Jones Wong is Red.

275
00:16:12,847 --> 00:16:15,684
Ēwelei'ula Wong is Blue.

276
00:16:16,476 --> 00:16:18,061
The battle of the Wongs.

277
00:16:18,144 --> 00:16:19,813
Ēwe is very sweet.

278
00:16:20,397 --> 00:16:24,317
But when he gets into the water,
It's pure dynamite.

279
00:16:24,401 --> 00:16:27,821
It is very soft and strong at the same time.

280
00:16:28,196 --> 00:16:30,281
I'm nervous, and my nerves...

281
00:16:30,365 --> 00:16:31,533
MOTHER OF ĒWE

282
00:16:31,616 --> 00:16:32,826
...they affect her.

283
00:16:33,284 --> 00:16:36,371
It's growing
and learning to handle the pressure,

284
00:16:36,454 --> 00:16:38,540
so I like to take a step back.

285
00:16:39,082 --> 00:16:42,043
I didn't know it was coming.
I told him I would just bring it.

286
00:16:42,794 --> 00:16:46,798
The current leader of the regional ranking,
Moana Jones Wong, she's the one in red.

287
00:16:50,301 --> 00:16:53,680
Surfing at home is,
perhaps the best in the world.

288
00:16:53,763 --> 00:16:54,597
MOANA'S FAMILY

289
00:16:54,681 --> 00:16:56,307
- Here it comes. Beautiful.
- Come on.

290
00:16:58,935 --> 00:17:03,523
It is very important that you accompany me
my family in competitions.

291
00:17:05,150 --> 00:17:07,277
- Well done.
- That was amazing.

292
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,655
The first two surfers
They will go to the next round.

293
00:17:11,781 --> 00:17:16,411
Ēwelei'ula Wong is
in second place at the moment.

294
00:17:22,834 --> 00:17:28,131
- Ēwelei'ula Wong gets a 4.0.
- That's good.

295
00:17:28,214 --> 00:17:31,009
New ranking. Blue, first place.

296
00:17:31,092 --> 00:17:32,093
Good job.

297
00:17:36,848 --> 00:17:39,642
Here we go. Moana is the first to go up.

298
00:17:42,812 --> 00:17:44,689
Come on, Moana. Come on!

299
00:17:49,360 --> 00:17:53,364
It went through the lip, but it fell
of the table. It was left incomplete.

300
00:17:55,033 --> 00:17:58,703
I like what I feel
when I'm on the wave and I'm going fast.

301
00:17:58,787 --> 00:18:03,374
I feel powerful when I ride the wave.

302
00:18:04,042 --> 00:18:07,378
She was able to capitalize on that and finish standing.

303
00:18:07,879 --> 00:18:11,257
Blue, first place.
White, second place.

304
00:18:11,758 --> 00:18:13,092
Red, third place.

305
00:18:13,176 --> 00:18:15,094
Red needs a 5.66.

306
00:18:15,595 --> 00:18:17,555
No. Why did she come third?

307
00:18:22,727 --> 00:18:25,188
Twenty seconds. Red has priority.

308
00:18:25,730 --> 00:18:26,898
Countdown...

309
00:18:33,738 --> 00:18:35,657
Red needs a 4.16.

310
00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:39,410
Countdown.
Five, four, three, two,

311
00:18:39,494 --> 00:18:40,620
ekahi.

312
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:46,292
Moana Jones Wong, 3.85.

313
00:18:46,376 --> 00:18:47,627
It's not enough.

314
00:18:47,710 --> 00:18:48,878
MOANA ELIMINATED

315
00:18:48,962 --> 00:18:53,299
Ēwelei'ula Wong and Lucy Jarrard

316
00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:56,469
They advance to the semi-final.

317
00:18:58,638 --> 00:18:59,681
Ready to go?

318
00:18:59,764 --> 00:19:01,015
- Yes.
- Yes, let's go.

319
00:19:01,099 --> 00:19:03,059
Come on. I wish it had gone better.

320
00:19:03,434 --> 00:19:07,146
It costs me a lot
keep my composure when I lose.

321
00:19:07,230 --> 00:19:09,107
I want to split the board in half.

322
00:19:09,524 --> 00:19:12,819
Lose in a competition
when you are at your highest level

323
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:16,614
It is something very discouraging.

324
00:19:17,365 --> 00:19:18,908
Well done, Ēwe. Good luck.

325
00:19:19,534 --> 00:19:23,037
I don't think I've ever beaten him.
Moana in a competition.

326
00:19:23,705 --> 00:19:28,710
It felt good to surf against her
and win the sleeve.

327
00:19:32,881 --> 00:19:34,841
I was in my little hideaway.

328
00:19:34,924 --> 00:19:36,384
MOTHER OF ĒWE

329
00:19:36,467 --> 00:19:37,802
When did you arrive?

330
00:19:37,886 --> 00:19:40,179
In the middle of the sleeve
prior to yours.

331
00:19:40,638 --> 00:19:42,765
- Were you here all this time?
- Yes.

332
00:19:42,849 --> 00:19:45,685
You were very good. Great job.

333
00:19:45,768 --> 00:19:48,897
Smart surfing. Good footwork.

334
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:50,607
- And alacrity.
- Thank you.

335
00:19:50,690 --> 00:19:51,900
came first

336
00:19:51,983 --> 00:19:55,987
with the second highest score
of the day for women.

337
00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:59,282
It was great. I'm glad I saw it.

338
00:20:05,163 --> 00:20:07,415
My whole life revolves around surfing.

339
00:20:07,874 --> 00:20:10,877
Come on. Surfer position.

340
00:20:11,628 --> 00:20:15,340
I started surfing more
when I was six years old.

341
00:20:15,423 --> 00:20:16,424
Great, Ēwe!

342
00:20:16,507 --> 00:20:18,468
I started Hawaiian immersion school

343
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:20,136
at two years, I think.

344
00:20:20,803 --> 00:20:23,723
I want to revitalize the language and bring that

345
00:20:24,098 --> 00:20:26,392
to everything in my life, especially surfing

346
00:20:26,476 --> 00:20:30,146
because my ancestors were its creators.

347
00:20:31,940 --> 00:20:35,401
At the beginning of the year, I won the Championship
Junior World Cup in El Salvador.

348
00:20:36,319 --> 00:20:39,405
But it hasn't gone well for me
in competitions since then.

349
00:20:39,489 --> 00:20:40,865
Hello, I'm Ēwe.

350
00:20:40,949 --> 00:20:44,160
I'm in the car with my mom.

351
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:45,536
Don't do what?

352
00:20:48,164 --> 00:20:49,707
Surfing is very expensive.

353
00:20:49,791 --> 00:20:52,961
If you don't have the support
from a great sponsor, you are...

354
00:20:53,044 --> 00:20:54,712
My parents pay

355
00:20:54,796 --> 00:20:57,090
much of my surfing career.

356
00:20:58,132 --> 00:21:00,802
I have two more brothers,
for what has been done

357
00:21:00,885 --> 00:21:02,637
great financial sacrifices.

358
00:21:03,346 --> 00:21:05,682
I got a sponsor
when I was 11 years old.

359
00:21:05,765 --> 00:21:08,101
The sponsor is at the top of the table

360
00:21:08,184 --> 00:21:11,354
to make it look good.
They were with me until this year.

361
00:21:12,522 --> 00:21:14,273
I have grown, and we notice

362
00:21:14,357 --> 00:21:17,151
that they no longer provided
the support I needed,

363
00:21:17,235 --> 00:21:19,028
so I don't work with them anymore.

364
00:21:20,196 --> 00:21:21,906
It was a big change,

365
00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:24,367
because during
six or seven years of my life,

366
00:21:24,450 --> 00:21:26,285
I had that sponsor on my board,

367
00:21:26,369 --> 00:21:29,789
and suddenly, the table went blank.

368
00:21:31,374 --> 00:21:34,043
Ēwe had to face some challenges.

369
00:21:34,127 --> 00:21:36,963
Many kids might have found it difficult

370
00:21:37,046 --> 00:21:40,299
not have a label
after so long.

371
00:21:40,383 --> 00:21:42,760
But that didn't stop him from surfing.

372
00:21:42,844 --> 00:21:44,512
and do the best possible.

373
00:21:46,014 --> 00:21:49,183
I want to be a professional surfer,
but I want to discover

374
00:21:49,267 --> 00:21:53,062
If competition is for me.

375
00:21:54,188 --> 00:21:57,316
I feel like I'm a different surfer
when I compete.

376
00:21:58,067 --> 00:22:01,029
I get very nervous and anxious
and I paralyze.

377
00:22:01,863 --> 00:22:06,242
I feel like I have a fierce mentality
when I surf non-competitively.

378
00:22:06,325 --> 00:22:09,245
In general, I have to fight for the waves

379
00:22:09,746 --> 00:22:14,500
with bigger men, so I must
stand firm somehow.

380
00:22:14,584 --> 00:22:16,919
And I can do that
in non-competitive surfing.

381
00:22:18,004 --> 00:22:20,465
For me it's not just about competing.
I don't know why.

382
00:22:20,548 --> 00:22:23,051
Although I have performance anxiety,

383
00:22:23,134 --> 00:22:25,261
I want to take my surfing to the next level

384
00:22:25,344 --> 00:22:27,013
and be the best of all.

385
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,518
20 minutes, 10 seconds left.

386
00:22:32,602 --> 00:22:33,978
QUARTERFINALS
MANGA 3

387
00:22:35,313 --> 00:22:38,274
Every surfer has ridden a wave so far.

388
00:22:38,357 --> 00:22:40,860
In the wide ones, you can see a protuberance.

389
00:22:40,943 --> 00:22:42,195
- There?
- Right there.

390
00:22:42,570 --> 00:22:44,947
And then he goes inside.

391
00:22:45,281 --> 00:22:48,159
The SC is an important event,

392
00:22:48,242 --> 00:22:51,037
and I must win to qualify
for the Challenger Series.

393
00:22:52,830 --> 00:22:54,874
It was a good wave. He had to set it up.

394
00:22:54,957 --> 00:22:56,751
My dad is a longboard champion.

395
00:22:56,834 --> 00:22:58,002
FATHER OF PUA

396
00:22:58,086 --> 00:23:00,505
It's a legacy
that I want to take everywhere.

397
00:23:03,674 --> 00:23:05,051
If you make the turn,

398
00:23:05,134 --> 00:23:07,637
you must come back
to the whitewater until it dissipates.

399
00:23:08,137 --> 00:23:09,680
- So.
- Yes.

400
00:23:09,764 --> 00:23:12,016
I want to win a world title
for my dad.

401
00:23:14,227 --> 00:23:17,688
Every wave you ride is a defense
against the other surfers.

402
00:23:19,107 --> 00:23:20,900
There is a lot of pressure.

403
00:23:20,983 --> 00:23:24,028
But it is said that diamonds
They are forged under pressure.

404
00:23:24,403 --> 00:23:28,032
I think I want to achieve that.

405
00:23:28,116 --> 00:23:30,243
Diamonds are forged under pressure.

406
00:23:33,454 --> 00:23:35,039
QUARTERFINALS
MANGA 4

407
00:23:35,123 --> 00:23:40,294
Last sleeve. This is Sunset Pro.
Pua DeSoto is Red.

408
00:23:40,962 --> 00:23:43,131
I am third in the regional ranking.

409
00:23:43,214 --> 00:23:45,091
Moana is first in the region,

410
00:23:45,174 --> 00:23:49,303
I must be in the top four
to reach the Challenger Series.

411
00:23:51,806 --> 00:23:55,977
I'm 200 points ahead
from fourth place,

412
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:58,604
If I lose in the quarterfinals,
They will take away my place.

413
00:23:59,939 --> 00:24:03,943
The waves look small.
It's a little distressing.

414
00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:08,114
Well, let's see Pua.

415
00:24:09,115 --> 00:24:11,492
He started from behind and climbed to the top.

416
00:24:11,576 --> 00:24:13,161
First wave of Pua.

417
00:24:14,078 --> 00:24:17,373
Rojo's first score: 3.5.

418
00:24:17,456 --> 00:24:19,500
Red, third place.

419
00:24:20,543 --> 00:24:23,713
As a native Hawaiian,
surfing is not just a world title.

420
00:24:23,796 --> 00:24:25,715
It is a cultural practice,

421
00:24:25,798 --> 00:24:30,469
and that is due
because it has always existed.

422
00:24:30,553 --> 00:24:33,347
We have been surfing since time immemorial.

423
00:24:34,015 --> 00:24:37,310
Rojo was able to improve with 6.75.

424
00:24:37,393 --> 00:24:40,021
Blue, you need a 5.66.

425
00:24:40,688 --> 00:24:42,982
We have a very close round.

426
00:24:43,065 --> 00:24:46,611
Only one point separates
to the competitors of the first

427
00:24:46,694 --> 00:24:47,987
to fourth place.

428
00:24:48,738 --> 00:24:50,948
Three minutes, 40 seconds left.

429
00:24:51,032 --> 00:24:52,533
- Blue.
- Here comes Blue.

430
00:24:52,617 --> 00:24:54,160
Blue, Nora Liotta.

431
00:24:54,243 --> 00:24:57,580
Nora climbs to the top and sprays some.

432
00:24:58,456 --> 00:25:00,499
Let's see what else this wave has to offer.

433
00:25:00,583 --> 00:25:01,667
It seems that...

434
00:25:01,751 --> 00:25:04,420
- Great.
- He took advantage of it.

435
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,964
I could come first.

436
00:25:07,048 --> 00:25:09,884
No. Only 6.6. New ranking.

437
00:25:09,967 --> 00:25:13,554
Blue, second place.
Red, you need a 5.6.

438
00:25:13,638 --> 00:25:15,973
Pua came third and has priority.

439
00:25:16,933 --> 00:25:20,228
Rojo regrets it there.
1 minute, 20 seconds left.

440
00:25:20,686 --> 00:25:22,271
PUA FAMILY

441
00:25:28,361 --> 00:25:30,404
Only 25 seconds left.

442
00:25:31,197 --> 00:25:32,865
The ocean is calming.

443
00:25:32,949 --> 00:25:36,953
It surprises me
who hasn't ridden the previous wave.

444
00:25:49,548 --> 00:25:50,383
PUA REMOVED

445
00:25:50,466 --> 00:25:52,051
- Pua.
- I know. Won?

446
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:55,596
Great job,
but we will see you at the next event.

447
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,723
- I'm sorry honey.
- Don't worry.

448
00:25:58,432 --> 00:26:00,309
I should have ridden the first one.

449
00:26:00,393 --> 00:26:01,227
Yes.

450
00:26:01,310 --> 00:26:02,937
- I gave him the set.
- Yes.

451
00:26:03,020 --> 00:26:05,523
- Did you have priority?
- She had priority.

452
00:26:05,606 --> 00:26:07,441
You should have set it up. You didn't do it.

453
00:26:07,525 --> 00:26:10,027
- That last one.
- For hoping for a better one.

454
00:26:10,111 --> 00:26:12,363
There was one minute, five seconds left.

455
00:26:12,446 --> 00:26:14,365
- I wanted...
- You should have ridden the wave.

456
00:26:15,783 --> 00:26:18,327
What do you want? A Hawaiian slushy?

457
00:26:18,786 --> 00:26:20,496
I want to go back to the past.

458
00:26:22,873 --> 00:26:25,459
They eliminated me, which is horrible.

459
00:26:25,543 --> 00:26:29,338
I needed a 5,

460
00:26:29,797 --> 00:26:31,382
and a wave came.

461
00:26:32,049 --> 00:26:34,343
It was a little small.

462
00:26:34,427 --> 00:26:36,178
I had one minute and 10 seconds

463
00:26:36,262 --> 00:26:38,889
and I thought, "I have time for another wave."

464
00:26:38,973 --> 00:26:40,391
But no other came.

465
00:26:40,474 --> 00:26:44,228
I expected much more from myself.

466
00:26:44,895 --> 00:26:47,189
We reach the end of Sunset Pro.

467
00:26:47,565 --> 00:26:50,401
Collect your waste
and enjoy the rest of the day.

468
00:26:51,235 --> 00:26:55,156
Young professional surfers
They have a lot of pressure.

469
00:26:55,239 --> 00:26:58,367
From parents, sponsors, coaches.

470
00:26:58,451 --> 00:27:00,995
There are many ups and downs.

471
00:27:01,537 --> 00:27:05,583
Handle all that
and not get exhausted on an emotional level

472
00:27:05,666 --> 00:27:06,959
It's very difficult.

473
00:27:08,461 --> 00:27:12,173
When I was younger and surfed
in amateur competitions,

474
00:27:12,256 --> 00:27:13,382
he always won.

475
00:27:13,466 --> 00:27:15,343
I won four national titles.

476
00:27:15,926 --> 00:27:17,386
I was doing very well.

477
00:27:17,970 --> 00:27:21,891
But at 16 years old,
I injured the MCL in my knee.

478
00:27:22,391 --> 00:27:26,937
and I couldn't surf for about six months.

479
00:27:28,272 --> 00:27:31,525
I lost my sponsor.

480
00:27:36,155 --> 00:27:39,200
Everyone came up to me and said:

481
00:27:39,283 --> 00:27:44,372
"Are you left without a sponsor?
"How crazy."

482
00:27:44,455 --> 00:27:46,540
But I knew what they were thinking.

483
00:27:46,624 --> 00:27:50,920
suddenly,
I wasn't the surfer I used to be.

484
00:27:51,921 --> 00:27:53,130
I was devastated.

485
00:27:53,881 --> 00:27:57,218
I lost interest in the surf industry

486
00:27:57,301 --> 00:27:58,803
and I disappeared.

487
00:27:59,428 --> 00:28:04,433
I didn't show up to the competitions.
And I deleted my Instagram account.

488
00:28:05,059 --> 00:28:06,852
They thought he had resigned.

489
00:28:07,478 --> 00:28:10,439
I was in university.
I had three different jobs

490
00:28:10,523 --> 00:28:11,982
to pay the rent.

491
00:28:12,566 --> 00:28:14,735
Received help from the government

492
00:28:14,819 --> 00:28:17,029
because I didn't have money for food.

493
00:28:17,446 --> 00:28:18,656
It was very difficult.

494
00:28:19,407 --> 00:28:23,285
I am a person who hit rock bottom
and had to crawl

495
00:28:23,994 --> 00:28:26,664
to get back up, and I did.

496
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:30,042
It wasn't easy, but it was worth it.

497
00:28:32,378 --> 00:28:33,379
VOLCOM HOUSE

498
00:28:33,462 --> 00:28:35,881
One of my greatest achievements in surfing

499
00:28:35,965 --> 00:28:38,467
was to get sponsorship from Volcom.

500
00:28:38,551 --> 00:28:41,554
- Hello, Riddle, how are you?
- Hi guys. Good.

501
00:28:41,637 --> 00:28:44,223
The first time I entered the Volcom House,

502
00:28:44,306 --> 00:28:45,808
I thought, "I don't belong here."

503
00:28:45,891 --> 00:28:46,892
PROFESSIONAL SURFER

504
00:28:46,976 --> 00:28:50,354
You see everyone around you
in the middle of winter...

505
00:28:50,438 --> 00:28:51,605
CHILDHOOD FRIEND

506
00:28:51,689 --> 00:28:53,816
...and now it's you. It's something magical.

507
00:28:54,608 --> 00:28:59,196
Everyone at Volcom, Hawaii,
They are people I grew up with.

508
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,532
It feels a very "ohana" vibe,

509
00:29:02,032 --> 00:29:04,076
as if we were family.

510
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,745
you would be surprised
what Makana and I did.

511
00:29:06,829 --> 00:29:08,247
- As children?
- Yes.

512
00:29:08,330 --> 00:29:10,499
Moana is the best female surfer.

513
00:29:10,583 --> 00:29:11,459
PROFESSIONAL SURFER

514
00:29:11,542 --> 00:29:14,253
We surf together
since approximately three years old.

515
00:29:14,336 --> 00:29:17,006
always stood out
and pushed me forward.

516
00:29:17,089 --> 00:29:20,092
Makana was my best friend
in childhood, without a doubt.

517
00:29:20,468 --> 00:29:23,596
I thought I was a boy
because he was my best friend.

518
00:29:23,679 --> 00:29:25,556
So I put on boy's clothes

519
00:29:25,639 --> 00:29:27,683
and I surfed with him every day.

520
00:29:27,766 --> 00:29:29,727
Some of the other kids said:

521
00:29:29,810 --> 00:29:31,645
"It's a boys-only area.

522
00:29:31,729 --> 00:29:34,732
Makana, you can come.
"Moana, you can't come."

523
00:29:34,815 --> 00:29:38,652
Then Makana said:
"No! It's not a girl. "He's a boy."

524
00:29:40,029 --> 00:29:43,866
At Pipeline, I usually surf with men.

525
00:29:43,949 --> 00:29:47,203
They are like my brothers.
I consider them my family.

526
00:29:47,286 --> 00:29:51,290
Everyone has broken their necks
or almost broke it.

527
00:29:51,373 --> 00:29:54,251
If you are a North Coast surfer,
at some point

528
00:29:54,335 --> 00:29:57,296
it will be your turn
and you will have a serious injury.

529
00:29:57,379 --> 00:29:58,380
Heavens...

530
00:29:58,464 --> 00:30:00,799
- We should be dead.
- Nine lives.

531
00:30:01,425 --> 00:30:06,180
The Pipe guys knew
who could beat the best surfers.

532
00:30:06,263 --> 00:30:10,559
They saw in me what the world of surfing
I couldn't see.

533
00:30:10,643 --> 00:30:14,605
We're Pipe surfers now
because we can come to Volcom House.

534
00:30:16,524 --> 00:30:20,152
Be a professional surfer without a sponsor

535
00:30:20,236 --> 00:30:22,279
It's almost impossible.

536
00:30:23,948 --> 00:30:25,282
ICED COCONUT

537
00:30:25,366 --> 00:30:26,534
FRUIT SMOOTHIE
ACAI

538
00:30:26,617 --> 00:30:27,826
FAMOUS KAHUKU SHRIMP

539
00:30:27,910 --> 00:30:31,372
I don't have a main sponsor
not a label on my table.

540
00:30:31,455 --> 00:30:34,583
But we were talking to Billabong,
and I will sign with them.

541
00:30:34,959 --> 00:30:37,795
From tomorrow,
Billabong will be my official sponsor.

542
00:30:37,878 --> 00:30:40,548
And I'm very excited.

543
00:30:41,006 --> 00:30:42,591
Rainos is the team manager.

544
00:30:42,675 --> 00:30:44,176
BILLABONG TEAM MANAGER

545
00:30:44,260 --> 00:30:46,845
will give me my labels
for the tip of the board

546
00:30:46,929 --> 00:30:49,848
and the contract for you to sign.

547
00:30:50,391 --> 00:30:51,809
- Hello.
- Hello, Rainos.

548
00:30:51,892 --> 00:30:53,143
- How are you?
- Good.

549
00:30:53,227 --> 00:30:55,271
Welcome to the team. It's great.

550
00:30:55,771 --> 00:30:58,023
- Thank you. I'm happy.
- Great. I know.

551
00:30:58,107 --> 00:31:00,192
Everyone is happy for you.

552
00:31:00,693 --> 00:31:04,280
- I have some labels for you, young lady.
- Heavens!

553
00:31:04,363 --> 00:31:05,864
Yes. This is also...

554
00:31:05,948 --> 00:31:07,157
A label?

555
00:31:07,241 --> 00:31:08,951
- The agreement for you to sign.
- Yes.

556
00:31:09,034 --> 00:31:11,579
everyone is happy
to count on you, so...

557
00:31:15,583 --> 00:31:18,335
Great! Congratulations.

558
00:31:18,419 --> 00:31:19,878
Thanks, Rainos.

559
00:31:19,962 --> 00:31:23,674
The Billabong women's program
has been looking for an athlete

560
00:31:23,757 --> 00:31:26,010
like Ēwe for quite some time.

561
00:31:26,093 --> 00:31:30,347
It's great to have a new athlete
hungry for glory,

562
00:31:30,431 --> 00:31:33,559
determined and capable.

563
00:31:33,642 --> 00:31:36,353
I hope that, culturally, it can

564
00:31:36,437 --> 00:31:41,150
keep the connection you have
with this place and share it with the world.

565
00:31:41,525 --> 00:31:42,735
There are no limits.

566
00:31:42,818 --> 00:31:43,777
Yes.

567
00:31:47,615 --> 00:31:51,285
It is very rare to see native Hawaiians,

568
00:31:51,368 --> 00:31:53,245
that speak Hawaiian, in the water.

569
00:31:53,329 --> 00:31:56,749
For me, it's extra pressure.

570
00:31:56,832 --> 00:31:58,208
represent them well.

571
00:31:59,835 --> 00:32:02,671
With Billabong, I will have more opportunities

572
00:32:02,755 --> 00:32:06,008
of traveling to different places.

573
00:32:06,091 --> 00:32:11,013
I am very grateful to everyone
those who helped me get here.

574
00:32:11,096 --> 00:32:14,642
I think my effort paid off.

575
00:32:15,184 --> 00:32:16,810
And I also like his clothes.

576
00:32:16,894 --> 00:32:17,770
Of course.

577
00:32:18,437 --> 00:32:21,315
I will use the label for the first time

578
00:32:21,398 --> 00:32:24,443
by Billabong
in the Sunset Pro semi-final.

579
00:32:25,569 --> 00:32:26,612
Very excited.

580
00:32:29,948 --> 00:32:31,867
Aloha auinala. Good afternoon.

581
00:32:31,950 --> 00:32:33,118
SUNSET PRO
SEMI-FINALS

582
00:32:33,202 --> 00:32:35,621
It's the last day of Sunset Pro.

583
00:32:35,704 --> 00:32:38,624
What a sleeve. Semifinals.
The first two will go to the final.

584
00:32:38,707 --> 00:32:40,334
We will end the day

585
00:32:40,417 --> 00:32:44,713
with two Sunset Pro champions.

586
00:32:45,422 --> 00:32:47,883
Each one will receive 1000 points

587
00:32:48,384 --> 00:32:52,554
and a nice prize of $2500.

588
00:32:53,097 --> 00:32:55,766
In the semi-final, we lost Moana and Pua.

589
00:32:55,849 --> 00:32:58,060
Ēwe keep going. I'm happy.

590
00:33:00,312 --> 00:33:02,022
ENTREPRENEUR / ĒWE REPRESENTATIVE

591
00:33:02,106 --> 00:33:03,482
This is the line-up.

592
00:33:03,982 --> 00:33:05,734
That's where they will all be.

593
00:33:05,818 --> 00:33:08,529
Look at the wind
when you go towards the wave.

594
00:33:08,987 --> 00:33:11,323
It's better to be a little further away.

595
00:33:11,407 --> 00:33:13,534
- Well.
- You can always come closer.

596
00:33:13,617 --> 00:33:14,660
- GOOD.
- Yeah.

597
00:33:14,743 --> 00:33:15,869
- GOOD.
- Well.

598
00:33:15,953 --> 00:33:17,621
- Thank you.
- Good luck.

599
00:33:20,999 --> 00:33:23,544
Adrenaline runs through my veins.

600
00:33:24,336 --> 00:33:26,505
I'm very nervous.

601
00:33:26,588 --> 00:33:28,465
I want to reach the final.

602
00:33:33,470 --> 00:33:35,305
Now, the second sleeve.

603
00:33:48,193 --> 00:33:49,486
Come on, Ēwe.

604
00:33:49,570 --> 00:33:50,946
Come on.

605
00:33:57,619 --> 00:33:59,371
Blanco's score is not enough.

606
00:33:59,955 --> 00:34:02,416
Blue, first place.
White, third place.

607
00:34:06,712 --> 00:34:09,172
Good technique
and movement through the wave.

608
00:34:09,882 --> 00:34:12,259
It's the best wave he's ridden so far.

609
00:34:13,092 --> 00:34:16,889
We will wait for the score.
12 minutes, 15 seconds.

610
00:34:17,389 --> 00:34:20,559
Ēwelei'ula Wong, 6.6.

611
00:34:21,101 --> 00:34:23,896
New ranking. White, first place.

612
00:34:24,688 --> 00:34:26,607
- Did we use it well?
- Yes.

613
00:34:27,815 --> 00:34:29,610
Blue rode the wave. Nora.

614
00:34:31,779 --> 00:34:36,366
Nora turned it over.
Azul's last score, 5.9.

615
00:34:36,449 --> 00:34:39,411
Blue, first place.
White, second place.

616
00:34:45,458 --> 00:34:47,127
Nora Liotta, you won the heat.

617
00:34:47,210 --> 00:34:50,714
Ēwelei'ula Wong came second
and advance to the final.

618
00:34:50,797 --> 00:34:53,132
I'm happy it arrived
to the end.

619
00:34:54,927 --> 00:34:56,887
I came second and passed.

620
00:34:56,969 --> 00:34:58,931
It's my first time competing at Sunset.

621
00:34:59,014 --> 00:35:01,975
and it's my first final here.
I am very happy.

622
00:35:02,059 --> 00:35:03,519
- Good job.
- Thank you.

623
00:35:03,602 --> 00:35:08,565
Gabriela Bryan, Maluhia Kinimaka,
Brianna Cope and Erin Brooks.

624
00:35:08,649 --> 00:35:10,275
- Thank you.
- Good luck.

625
00:35:10,359 --> 00:35:11,610
- See you later.
- Yes.

626
00:35:11,693 --> 00:35:13,946
I'm excited
for the semi-final. I think...

627
00:35:14,029 --> 00:35:16,156
I think they are good competitors.

628
00:35:16,240 --> 00:35:18,826
I think they will all have
very good scores.

629
00:35:18,909 --> 00:35:20,994
They are all very talented.

630
00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:27,209
At 16 years old,
I had a serious knee injury.

631
00:35:27,292 --> 00:35:30,337
My kneecap was dislocated for some reason.

632
00:35:30,420 --> 00:35:31,672
and he was very weak.

633
00:35:32,214 --> 00:35:35,926
I had to decide if I wanted to compete in surfing.

634
00:35:36,009 --> 00:35:37,928
or go to university...

635
00:35:38,011 --> 00:35:42,224
What do I want to do knowing
that I have this injury?

636
00:35:43,141 --> 00:35:47,312
I applied to Stanford, Harvard, and MIT.

637
00:35:47,855 --> 00:35:50,607
One day, I came home from school,

638
00:35:50,691 --> 00:35:53,277
and my mom was crying in the kitchen.

639
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,362
I said, "Mom, what's wrong? Are you okay?"

640
00:35:55,445 --> 00:35:57,656
And he told me: "You got into Stanford."

641
00:35:57,739 --> 00:35:59,324
between tears I said, "What?"

642
00:35:59,408 --> 00:36:01,285
And then I started crying too.

643
00:36:01,660 --> 00:36:04,329
University was the option
more logical and intelligent.

644
00:36:04,413 --> 00:36:07,833
So I went to Stanford to study
Aerospace Engineering.

645
00:36:08,917 --> 00:36:10,669
I'm not a teenager anymore.

646
00:36:10,752 --> 00:36:14,548
This is the first year
I'm trying to get into the Challenger.

647
00:36:14,631 --> 00:36:16,216
I am already old at 26 years old.

648
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:18,844
But I think I should do this

649
00:36:18,927 --> 00:36:23,098
to know if it's what I really want.

650
00:36:24,266 --> 00:36:28,061
I would like to be
the first elite surfer

651
00:36:28,145 --> 00:36:30,689
who is a native hawaiian
with a Ph.D.

652
00:36:30,772 --> 00:36:32,190
I would love that.

653
00:36:34,943 --> 00:36:37,195
There are 10 minutes left in the sleeve.

654
00:36:37,279 --> 00:36:40,908
At this moment,
Brianna Cope is in first place

655
00:36:40,991 --> 00:36:44,036
with 6.5 and 4.9.

656
00:36:44,119 --> 00:36:49,124
Gabriela Bryan, Red,
It is second with 5.5 and 4.1.

657
00:36:49,207 --> 00:36:52,085
As we said,
the first and second go to the final.

658
00:36:52,169 --> 00:36:53,712
Blue has priority.

659
00:36:53,795 --> 00:36:57,799
Maluhia Kinimaka is third
and needs a 3.6 to pass.

660
00:37:00,594 --> 00:37:02,346
Keeps the board moving.

661
00:37:07,601 --> 00:37:09,895
Three minutes, 40 seconds left.

662
00:37:09,978 --> 00:37:14,524
Azul's latest score is 4.1.
Second place.

663
00:37:14,608 --> 00:37:18,195
But now, Gabriela Bryan
will go for first place.

664
00:37:24,618 --> 00:37:28,580
Red needed a 4.9. It got 5.0.

665
00:37:28,664 --> 00:37:31,291
He returned to second place.
50 seconds left.

666
00:37:31,708 --> 00:37:33,835
The first two will advance to the round.

667
00:37:43,512 --> 00:37:47,224
And these will be Brianna Cole
and Gabriela Bryan.

668
00:37:47,307 --> 00:37:50,060
Maluhia and Erin came third and fourth.

669
00:37:50,143 --> 00:37:52,145
It was a very close round.

670
00:37:52,229 --> 00:37:53,146
MALUHIA ELIMINATED

671
00:37:53,230 --> 00:37:57,484
This sport sometimes
is reduced to decimals.

672
00:37:57,567 --> 00:37:59,528
Some losses are harder.

673
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,490
I love the sleeves
competitive and close.

674
00:38:03,573 --> 00:38:07,160
They force you to focus and see

675
00:38:08,161 --> 00:38:10,038
how calm you can be under pressure.

676
00:38:10,122 --> 00:38:11,832
So it was very exciting.

677
00:38:13,458 --> 00:38:17,587
The women's final is coming
of Sunset Pro of 2022.

678
00:38:18,380 --> 00:38:20,757
We will crown the champions of the event

679
00:38:20,841 --> 00:38:22,342
on the beach

680
00:38:23,218 --> 00:38:26,221
Every wave you ride
It must be a winning wave.

681
00:38:26,304 --> 00:38:29,307
Oh really. If it is not a six or more,

682
00:38:29,391 --> 00:38:30,809
let it pass

683
00:38:31,518 --> 00:38:33,770
That's the difference
when competing in a final.

684
00:38:34,187 --> 00:38:35,105
- Good.
- Yes.

685
00:38:35,188 --> 00:38:38,525
Make clear decisions and go for everything.

686
00:38:40,652 --> 00:38:44,656
At the end of the final, one of these women

687
00:38:45,323 --> 00:38:49,911
will be the 2022 Sunset Pro champion.

688
00:38:49,995 --> 00:38:53,415
The winner will take home $2500
and 1000 points.

689
00:38:54,374 --> 00:38:58,170
The second, third and fourth will receive
money and points too, but...

690
00:38:58,253 --> 00:38:59,463
Were you here?

691
00:38:59,546 --> 00:39:02,215
All the competitors came to win

692
00:39:02,299 --> 00:39:04,968
and to be the last surfer standing.

693
00:39:06,970 --> 00:39:10,599
Ēwelei'ula Wong is dressed in green,
Nora Liotta in white,

694
00:39:11,558 --> 00:39:14,978
Gabriela Bryan in blue,
and Brianna Cope in red.

695
00:39:15,062 --> 00:39:16,646
I am enthusiastic.

696
00:39:16,730 --> 00:39:19,858
Any of the girls can win.

697
00:39:20,317 --> 00:39:23,403
Technically, the other three
They are more ingenious.

698
00:39:24,237 --> 00:39:25,614
But it's the final.

699
00:39:25,697 --> 00:39:28,575
Everything comes down
to what you feel emotionally,

700
00:39:28,658 --> 00:39:32,204
to make clear decisions

701
00:39:32,287 --> 00:39:34,915
and what the ocean offers.

702
00:39:38,043 --> 00:39:40,587
The women's final begins.

703
00:39:40,670 --> 00:39:45,634
The wahine will have 30 minutes
to show the judges what they have.

704
00:39:45,717 --> 00:39:47,344
Anything can happen. They are all good.

705
00:39:47,427 --> 00:39:48,804
ĒWE'S BEST FRIEND

706
00:39:48,887 --> 00:39:49,721
Yes.

707
00:39:50,847 --> 00:39:53,767
Here we go. Let's see who rides first.

708
00:39:53,850 --> 00:39:56,019
Blue, Gabriela Bryan.

709
00:39:56,561 --> 00:39:59,064
Rookie of the year on the Championship Tour.

710
00:39:59,147 --> 00:40:02,067
Azul's first score: 6.0.

711
00:40:02,150 --> 00:40:04,152
Ēwe takes priority now.

712
00:40:07,656 --> 00:40:10,575
Here comes Green, Ēwelei'ula.

713
00:40:14,079 --> 00:40:15,413
Ēwe comes very fast.

714
00:40:20,127 --> 00:40:22,003
- It was an excellent wave.
- Yes.

715
00:40:22,087 --> 00:40:25,173
First Green score: 7.25.

716
00:40:25,257 --> 00:40:27,425
Come on, Ēwe. Go back there.

717
00:40:30,178 --> 00:40:35,058
Gabriela Bryan with two movements
powerful gets 7.25.

718
00:40:35,934 --> 00:40:37,227
He got the same score.

719
00:40:37,310 --> 00:40:38,645
- How much?
- 7.25.

720
00:40:38,728 --> 00:40:39,563
Good.

721
00:40:39,646 --> 00:40:43,400
Gabriela Bryan regained first place.

722
00:40:43,483 --> 00:40:44,651
Who is that?

723
00:40:45,277 --> 00:40:47,445
- White? Nora?
- Yes.

724
00:40:47,529 --> 00:40:50,240
Here comes Blanco, Nora Liotta.

725
00:40:50,323 --> 00:40:53,702
Move forward from outside.

726
00:40:55,620 --> 00:40:59,916
New ranking. White, second place.
Green, third place.

727
00:41:06,298 --> 00:41:08,884
- Heavens. The sea calmed down.
- It was flat.

728
00:41:08,967 --> 00:41:10,635
Literally.

729
00:41:19,352 --> 00:41:23,023
Green, third place.
Green needs a 6.01.

730
00:41:23,607 --> 00:41:25,358
Geez, three minutes. Come on.

731
00:41:25,442 --> 00:41:26,735
I think there is a set coming.

732
00:41:33,867 --> 00:41:35,493
Yeah!

733
00:41:36,578 --> 00:41:38,997
One minute, 45 seconds.

734
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,876
Here comes Green, Ēwelei'ula Wong,
that needs a 6.01

735
00:41:42,959 --> 00:41:45,253
to be Sunset Pro champion.

736
00:41:45,795 --> 00:41:48,256
Ēwelei ends.

737
00:41:50,091 --> 00:41:52,469
Latest Green score: 3.25. It's not enough.

738
00:41:55,639 --> 00:41:57,307
- We came third?
- Yes.

739
00:41:57,390 --> 00:41:59,809
- It's still good.
- Yes, it's good.

740
00:41:59,893 --> 00:42:01,394
It's not bad to be third.

741
00:42:02,062 --> 00:42:05,982
I was 0.5 away from finishing second.

742
00:42:06,066 --> 00:42:08,068
0.5 is not much.

743
00:42:08,151 --> 00:42:12,948
It's an extra twist or something extra.

744
00:42:14,532 --> 00:42:17,535
It was my first competition
with the Billabong label,

745
00:42:17,619 --> 00:42:20,413
and I am very happy.

746
00:42:21,581 --> 00:42:25,919
In fourth place,
the winner of 600 points and $900.

747
00:42:26,002 --> 00:42:28,004
Let's give a round of applause to Brianna Cope.

748
00:42:31,341 --> 00:42:36,805
In third place,
the winner of 650 points and $1100.

749
00:42:36,888 --> 00:42:39,724
Let's give a round of applause to Ēwelei'ula Wong!

750
00:42:41,935 --> 00:42:44,562
I'm proud of myself
because I felt that today

751
00:42:44,646 --> 00:42:47,357
I had a certain alacrity

752
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,360
and I feel like I recovered
my ability to compete.

753
00:42:50,944 --> 00:42:52,195
It was very difficult.

754
00:42:52,821 --> 00:42:55,156
I competed against girls like Nora Liotta,

755
00:42:55,240 --> 00:42:57,617
Gabriela Bryan and Brianna Cope,

756
00:42:57,701 --> 00:43:00,662
very talented surfers
and with a lot of experience.

757
00:43:01,621 --> 00:43:03,373
And now we will go to Florida.

758
00:43:03,456 --> 00:43:05,542
There will be more competitions, more girls.

759
00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:07,294
I'm very excited.

760
00:43:07,377 --> 00:43:09,587
Should we return the shirts or...?

761
00:43:09,671 --> 00:43:11,131
- No, keep it!
- Oh really?

762
00:43:11,256 --> 00:43:12,757
Yes. Don't give it back.

763
00:43:12,841 --> 00:43:14,509
What will they do with it?

764
00:43:14,592 --> 00:43:17,470
- It's yours.
- Alright. It's not a...

765
00:43:17,554 --> 00:43:19,180
- Take her home.
- Well.

766
00:43:21,641 --> 00:43:26,313
The Super Girl Pro in Florida is the last
event of the SC season.

767
00:43:27,063 --> 00:43:28,648
There will be a lot more pressure

768
00:43:28,732 --> 00:43:31,943
because it's the last chance
to qualify for the Challenger.

769
00:43:32,027 --> 00:43:32,986
It's the final cut.

770
00:43:34,904 --> 00:43:37,157
I haven't won a SC yet,

771
00:43:37,240 --> 00:43:38,992
so I must give my best.

772
00:43:39,075 --> 00:43:42,078
I am very confident in my surfing
and in myself.

773
00:43:42,162 --> 00:43:44,122
I must take advantage of the opportunity.

774
00:43:44,205 --> 00:43:46,041
The pressure is terrifying.

775
00:43:46,124 --> 00:43:48,543
There are many points at stake in Florida.

776
00:43:48,626 --> 00:43:51,671
I'm ready to prove
what kind of surfer am I

777
00:43:51,755 --> 00:43:53,757
for everyone to see

778
00:43:54,299 --> 00:43:56,051
that I deserve respect.

779
00:44:00,555 --> 00:44:03,266
Hurricane Nicole is approaching
to the east coast of Florida

780
00:44:03,350 --> 00:44:07,520
with winds of 120 km per hour
and dangerous waves.

781
00:44:09,230 --> 00:44:13,234
