Check this out!
At the Quiky Pro, Laura Enever stumbled across little girl busking for a new board. Her name is Pacha, she was dancing her heart out and this is what happened next.....
Congratulations to Matty, he surfed amazing in all of his heats, and the only CT surfer to beat him was 10 x world champion, Kelly Slater! He took down Kai Otten in his first heat, then advanced smoothly through world no. 4 Bede Durbridge. This is what Matty had to say post Quik Pro.

Time for the youngsters to back it up after both Laura and Matty got 2nds in there first round clashes. Maybe it was the nerves as it was both their first ever WCT heat? Maybe it was their opponents? What ever it was, its gone!

The RVCA family took some time out to spend the afternoon and evening with some of Chilli's close family and friends. Lotta love in this shot.
