Andy gets ahead of the pack, it will be, but if he falls between Fanning and Munro then they could step it up and it will all be back for the taking. Trestles (in California)...

If I were to win on the Gold Coast, I think it would probably force me to look at going for another world title. At this point, I really don’t know what I’m going to...

It’s a magical start. It kind of gives me a nice little cushion there. If I just surf loose and get another result or two, then everything’s lined up real good for the start of...

To receive a 10-point ride is a blessing in itself, but to have it honored by giving to those who could use a little support to accomplish the things they want to do in life...

It was a fun trip for her.

I haven’t surfed since Japan ”’not even one wave.

I call him ‘Danger’ and he ripped the other day,

What we’re trying to do is create futuristic surf communities.

[Kelly Slater, for one, said Mar Ohno shouldn’t be underestimated:] He has the wildcard again and can be dangerous if he loosens up and just surfs, … It’ll be interesting to see if he gets...

It’s funny because depending on the day or where we are, my favorite surfer is either Andy or Bruce.

You can’t kill this wave. You have got to work with it. I stayed relaxed and luckily had good surf.

He should upset some guys out there.

I was just living in the moment, … That’s something I’ve been trying to do this year. I wasn’t worried about anything that I couldn’t control.

I tend to do a lot better here when it’s big rather than when its small.

This was the most emotional title of my career. I was the youngest champion, and now I’m the oldest.

Everything started coming into my head, … I was the youngest world champ and now I’m the oldest world champ; it’s been seven years since I won my last title and this is my seventh...

Good catch — I mean, a good throw.

It’s all about where your mind’s at,

so I won’t miss my cartoons.

I thought to myself, ‘There’s a man with confidence’. Then he went out and did his thing and beat Andy.

I haven’t surfed that much in the past couple of weeks,

He has a great knack for picking the right wave and he’s a really smart competitor. He might even bust out a superman air. He has a few tricks up his sleeve. He always pulls...

It may have been one wave in one heat but by him winning he gained 178 points on me and if I’d won I would have moved (further) ahead,

When I started surfing, I’d forget about everyone and everything and just go out and surf, … I surfed by myself, but surfing has allowed me to have friends around the world. It’s an exciting...

Somewhat. For sure, it’s a great start.

Now is the time to determine whether or not it will be a two-horse race for the title,

I thought to myself that I should stick around to watch Nathan and Andy’s heat and if I won today I should be at the beach,

I didn’t think that wave was going to offer a ton, … But the wave just held form, and I was able to get a lot out of it.
