2016 Stand Up World Tour : Caio Vaz starts the year off by taking victory at Sunset Beach
mercredi 17 février 2016 – Redaction SSS [Source RP]
Caio Vaz (Art in Surf) just seems to go from strength to strength, and has once again found winning form here at the 2016 Sunset Beach Pro, his second victory at this iconic break on Oahu’s Fabled North Shore.
His ability to adapt and excel in any kind of conditions is evident and what secured him the 2015 World Title, as once again here at Sunset, he dominated all his heats through to the Final, from the full size pumping surf of the first few days, to the blustery and incredibly challenging conditions on the Final Day, Caio was able to turn it on.
In the final, Caio made the challenging conditions look like a walk in the park, posting another excellent range score right off the bat to put the pressure on the other 3 finalists. He was then able to back it up with a mid range score to secure victory, an incredible achievement for this young Brazilian Champion.
