Medina is the new world surfing champion crowned yesterday by ASP in the Hawaiian sands of pipeline.
Julian Wilson won the Pipeline Masters, while medina ended in the 2nd place.
The Brazilian party,and later the Australian,were huge.
Medina came out of the water during the heat to celebrate with the fans the first Brazilian world title of surf.returning 15 minutes away from end to the line-up yet to win the heat.Amazing moments.
History was made on the north shore and nothing will be as before.
Two things became very clear:
- The Australian and American supremacy were broken.
The discourse of Medina, in Portuguese, when he received the trophy,was expected for many years, denied often through obscure maneuvers, and feared by the establishment.
-A New generation took control.
The veterans of tour needs to renew themselves or to retire with the dignity given through the victories and enormous contribution to surf, knowing that the surf destinations were delivered in good hands.
The quantity of persons at pipeline sands, the party of the fans and the surf that Medina and Wilson present us all yesterday, are the best insurance that surf of competition is following in the right track.
The pluralization and globalization that Gabriel Medina brought yesterday for surfing is a victory for all mankind, not only for Brazil.
Congrats also for that Gabriel.
