I truely believed a competition run like this was behind me. The devils in my head banging the drums of I can’t possibly get all the way back to the top and how dare I dream. Well guess what kids, dream big and be fearless in the pursuit of what makes you tick.
For every single person that tuned in, got off there seats, cheered and if you were anything like myself you may have shed a little tear. I say a massive heart felt thank you for coming along on my journey.
That will go down as the most wholesome and memorable competition experiences of my life and thank you @ashley_oh_wilson for believing in me to the point of this reality!
Big love to everyone from the Wilson family.
Thank you for having me @wsl

Halfway through the first episode of Rivvia’s ‘VV Tapes’, Ryan Callinan turns to the camera and says, “I love surf trips.” It pretty much sums up the energy of the video, which sees Ryan, along with Julian Wilson, Mateus Herdy, Cadin Francis and Manning Gregory, on a tear up the East Coast.
The full vid, by Jimmy Lees, is live now! Go watch it at the link in bio and then come back and try to tell us you wish you weren’t on that trip.
