“I Can’t Believe I Just Won The First Ever Women’s Pipe CT”

“I am so happy. I am #1 in the world now too which is crazy… I am so excited for what’s next”

In case you’ve been living under a rock, Moana Jones Wong, the local event wildcard, dominated the inaugural Women’s Pipe CT to take the W over Riss Moore in the final. There wasn’t a heat Moana surfed where she looked in doubt of losing, particularly on finals day when the surf was in the double-overhead range.
