Kazuma with Matt Meola, 1 on 1 coaching session at the Nationals

One thing for sure, Matt is the surfer to watch. He actually pulled this turn, Matt and Kai were the most impressive surfers we watched over the last 3 days. Matt looked right at home from his very 1st wave. Matt Kinoshita and Matt Meola are pictured below going over some positioning strategies and were doing some last minute video coaching to fine tune his performance. Matt is Ready to win.
