Connor Wins Big at J-Bay – Molly Leads the Charge 🌊

Hey crew,

Jeffreys Bay delivered big, and our team was right in the mix. Connor O’Leary absolutely smashed it! Soundtracking the event with a perfect 10 in the semis and backing it up in the final to take out world number one Yago Dora and claim his first CT win. That’s epic from a goofy-footer on that iconic right-hand point break.

Molly Picklum also made her mark, surfing amazing all event and landing runner-up—keeping that yellow jersey locked in place and staring down the Final 5 showdown. She’s surfing sharp and looking great coming into the business end of the year. 

Both performances show serious momentum heading into Tahiti and beyond. Big things brewing.

On to the next one.

Cheers,
Darren Handley
