“I’m just wanting to keep the ball rolling after last year I started really good and then ended pretty bad so I just wanted to start good and finish strong,” said Crawford. But, the emerging talent knows the work is far from done and has his goals set after returning from the Challenger Series. Crawford’s excellent opening scores totaled a 16.34 before using his patience heading into the final minutes and unleashed his backhand attack, utilizing his progression and power, to post a near-perfect 9.67. Haleiwa, Oahu’s Shion Crawford (HAW) wasted no time getting his 2023/24 QS season underway in decimating form.

I’m just looking to trying my best and having fun, but having fun is definitely my goal.” “I haven’t competed in a long time so it was a little shocking, but I’m happy to be here and surf with only four girls out at Bowls. “It was a little windy in the afternoon and I was kind of bummed, but happy to put a couple waves together,” said Ivy.
Ivy’s formidable forehand earned an excellent 8.00 (out of a possible 10) after she delivered in her debut heat to advance through. Making her presence known in the jersey, Summer Ivy (HAW) delivered an impeccable performance in her first event since 2018 and dropped a 15.00 (out of a possible 20) heat total to march toward the Semifinals.
