@john_john_florence and I are raffling off these boards for our friend Chris Prosser to help with medical bills. Chris has been part of the @wsl Medical team for over 30 years. Has helped so many people around the world. If you can help please do. Thank you. 🙏🏼 Tickets are in our bio’s
“I’ve known Chris Prosser for over 25 years. In that time, he was my Chiropractor but most of all an incredible friend. He is always there when I needed him and I tried to be the same in return. Right now, he’s in a fight for his life and needs our help. A person that is incredibly smart but also so caring. Having treated surfers from across the world for the past 30 years let’s help Chris and his family get through this battle.” - Mick Fanning
“Hey everyone, we wanted to share that our good friend Chris Prosser needs our help. Chris has become a close friend to me during my years of competing and especially my last year on tour. He was big part of our team, and I was so grateful to spend that time together on the road. He’s a very talented human and I think he’s helped a lot of people in our community.” - John Florence

We’ve created a GoFundMe account to help raise funds for Chris and his family. We’re also raffling off a couple of our own surfboards, signed by the WSL athletes. Please check our bio’s for the links!
We are so thankful to everyone who has hosted us and shared their home in our travels. The friends we have made along the way are a big reason we are out here on Vela and excited to keep going
Our newest episode of Vela, “The Beginning” is live now. Thankful for the time we got to spend in New Zealand!! We will be back 🙌
For those who get a chance to watch, the proceeds from this episode will support North Shore families who need help after the recent floods. If you want to support directly the @lahuifoundation is a great place to start!
Our second episode of VELA is live! “Lei Malo” means the lady wave in Vanuatu. It was pretty surreal just to explore an area we knew so little about. And the surf community was so inspiring! It was an amazing feeling to have no idea what we would find @yeti
