JJF tuning up before he wins his third title at Trestles in September. It is awesome to see him back in form after all the injuries he has been through.

yeah I am really hoping he gets his 3rd title this year and the win at Lowers. Last year there, then it goes to Fiji for the final in the 2025 tour.

Be careful...if italo ends up ranked 3rd he can really win this world title...unless the judges give more points to cutbacks instead of full ro airs...which is always possible...

@@gianthuman3315 I agree, it seems like he had an insane amount of speed on his turns and there very similar to filipes on the challenger series, but when he gets on the ct he struggles to do the same quality of surfing. Perhaps because the waves are just different on the ct, there bigger. Still though, he does charge in waves like pipe, and chopes unlike filipe

the Brazilian program Por Dentro do Tour made a survey of the last 17 heats in which Medina competed with the 4 WSL favorites, john john florence, colapinto, jack robinson and ethan ewing, medina won only 4 heats, all with more than 5 points of difference, like, there was no room for doubt, 4 heats he lost with a big advantage too, and 9 heats well contested, all of which Medina lost, some very controversial, anyone has doubts that if JJF just surfs well he will be champion ??
