Game Changers, Barrier Destroyers Arrive at Lowers Dear San Clemente, I’ll open by saying the obvious—thank you for welcoming us into your home this week and sharing your incredible waves with us during the Swatch Women’s Pro at Trestles. San Clemente has long hosted the world’s best surfers for the Hurley Pro at Trestles and the addition of Lower Trestles to the 2014 Samsung Galaxy ASP Women’s World Championship Tour season comes at a time when there has never been more talent in the ranks. 2014 has marked the greatest paradigm shift in the history of women’s surfing. The ASP WCT has added Trestles, Cloudbreak, Hossegor and Maui to the Gold Coast, West Oz, Rio, Bells, HB and Cascais. It’s been an unprecedented show of commitment to quality venues for women’s surfing and the ASP has already seen its belief returned in spades, with historic performances logged from Australia to Brazil and the South Pacific. This is the first year in the history of the sport that we will be holding an elite women’s event at Lowers, and what does that actually mean to the battle for the world surfing crown? For one, different waves favor different styles of surfing and SANCLEMENTETIMES.COM

hence, different surfers. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses as an athlete. As keen observers of the men’s tour would have noticed, we expect the aerialists to do well at Trestles—something we don’t see on tour very often. This year in California, the women’s ASP Top 17 will redefine contest surfing by bringing that “free surf flair” to the colored jersey—a flair that has been apparent for several Jessi Miley-Dyer. seasons already on the Courtesy photo men’s tour. Quote me on it, “This is the most talented group of female surfers that have ever been assembled on the ASP WCT,” and I am anticipating the battles and the shattering of the performance ceiling with relish. Thank you Swatch and Hurley for supporting us in coming to Trestles and an extra special thanks to the locals for sharing your waves. We appreciate it and we intend on doing you all proud this week. See you in the water. Jessi Miley-Dyer ASP Women’s Commissioner

Dear Surf Fans, I hope this finds you well. As the Hurley Pro and Swatch Women’s Pro get underway at Trestles, I wanted to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to, and appreciation for, the local community for welcoming us here year after year, sharing your waves and supporting the world’s best surfers throughout the event. Lower Trestles is universally regarded as one of the most high-performance waves on the planet and has been a favorite stop on tour since its inception as an elite level event in 2000. It has inspired game-changing approaches, both in and out of the singlet, from iconic locals such as Shane Beschen, Mike Parsons, Matt Archbold, Christian Fletcher, Chris Ward and, more recently, Nathan Yeomans, the Gudauskas brothers and Kolohe Andino. Now, in its 15th year of welcoming the world’s best surfers from the elite World Championship Tour, the Hurley Pro at Trestles recommences the 2014 Samsung Galaxy Association of Surfing Professionals World Championship Tour and the hunt for this season’s world surfing crown. Gabriel Medina, Kelly Slater, Joel Parkinson, Michel Bourez and Mick Fanning all occupy the Top 5 positions with Taj Burrow,

Adriano de Souza, Kolohe Andino, Nat Young and Owen Wright following closely behind. The depth of talent in this year’s ASP Top 34 is unprecedented and I believe we will see performance barriers shattered at this season’s Hurley Pro. This year, we have the added dynamic of the world’s best female surfers with the addition of the Swatch Women’s Pro and it will be fantastic to see what the ASP Top 17 can do out at Lower Trestles. There is a phenomenal amount of talent there as well. I’d like to thank Hurley and Swatch for stepKieren Perrow. ping up and supporting Courtesy photo this year’s event as well as the always-supportive California State Parks. Big thanks to IMG and our team at the ASP who work very hard to put these events on. Most importantly, thank you— once again—to the local community for your continued support and enthusiasm for the world’s best surfers. We look forward to seeing everyone over the next couple of weeks. Kieren Perrow ASP Commissioner

Do what you love and help along the way. From North Korea to Haiti and Mexico to Nepal, the nonprofit organization Waves for Water works tirelessly to ensure a single, basic human right is fulfilled. It is a large-scale operation backed by international companies like Hurley and PayPal. The organization even partners with the United Nations. But, behind the corporations and the global leaders, Waves for Water is purely society-driven—an entity built for the community by the community, with one common goal: That people across the globe have access to clean drinking water. Through a network of adventurers, who take the road less traveled and traverse into remote and often impoverished areas, Waves for Water accomplishes its goal—one water filter at a time. By simply carrying one $50 filter on their travels, these Clean Water Couriers have the potential to impact 100,000 lives. That is correct. A single $50 water filter can help supply 100,000 people—roughly the population of Ventura, Calif.—with potable water for up to five years. These couriers have answered the call of former pro surfer and W4W founder Jon Rose to bring clean water to Brazilians left homeless in 2012 after floods and mudslides devastated their lands, to the residents of Padang and Sumatra in Indonesia after a 7.6-magnitude earthquake destroyed their villages and to communities in A woman in Peru sets up a clean-water system. Japan, Haiti, Pakistan, India, Sierra Photo: Waves for Water Leone and beyond. “If everybody that traveled through somewhere like India brought five filters with them and distributed them along their journey, you can reach some profound numbers,” said Jake Howard with Waves for Water. “It’s easy to write a check, but to go out and do something and know that all of your funds are going directly toward that, it’s a powerful thing.” W4W was conceived within the surfing community, where, from remote beach loca-

tions, volunteers started delivering filters. It has continued to grow within that community through a partner@Wavesforwater ship with Hurley H20—a clean-water initiative—and now with the Association of Surfing Professionals. Beginning this year, W4W and ASP teamed up to spread the organization’s mission at all 11 World Championship Tour events, starting with Gold Coast, Australia. With each stop, Waves for Water works with local organizations to help surrounding communities that lack access to clean water. During the tour’s stop in Jeffreys Bay, a town located in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa, W4W completed filtration projects in outlying, rural towns. Now, as the tour stops in San Clemente, Waves for Water is beginning a new project south of the border to bring orphans in Tijuana and northern Baja California a source of fresh water. Volunteers will work alongside the Irvine-based nonprofit Corazon de Vida to make clean water a reality for children of the Mexican state, housed at 13 orphanages from the border to Ensenada. It is simply people doing what they love and helping along the way.—Andrea Papagianis

Everything Makes a Difference Did you know that lawn is America’s most grown crop? Or that this inedible, green crop outnumbers corn four acres to one? In Southern California, lawns consume an estimated 750 gallons of water each week. That’s nearly 3,000 liters, or seven days of a household’s average water usage. And while 70 percent of the Earth is covered by water, less than 1 percent is available for human use and consumption. These are facts The Ecology Center wants people to be aware of. The realities that make one stop, reflect and really think about their individual usage—hopefully prompting even the smallest of changes in their life that could make a world of difference around them. “Every little thing we do makes a difference,” said Ann Nguyen, communications and marketing manager at The Ecology Center. It is a message to inspire water activism and awareness throughout Southern California that the San Juan Capistrano-based organization and Hurley have teamed up to promote over the last four years. And it’s one that for the last three World Championship Tour stops at Lower Trestles, The Ecology Center and Hurley have asked visitors and com-

petitors to share far beyond the reaches of the beach. As the Hurley Pro gets underway, The Ecology Center’s now iconic, eye-catching white geodesic dome will once again make its home at Trestles. In years past the organization’s focus has centered on water foot printing and how daily decisions can impact the health of the world’s oceans. This year’s message shifts slightly to encourage visitors to take the facts learned and implement change to create a sustainable home through a holistic conservation approach. Five principles are at the conservation conversation’s core: water, food, waste, energy and shelter. By looking at the big picture, and taking a holistic approach, The Ecology Center hopes to give everyone plenty of simple options, from riding a bike to recycling and composting, to make a big difference. So, stop by the dome to learn water, energy and other conservation tips, join forces with like minds, pledge to take action and snap a picture at the newly added photo booth. Then share that message and encourage others to get involved.—AP

Reveling in the Park, Limiting Your Footprint To help keep Lowers intact and healthy for years and visitors to come, here are a few recommendations from Rich Haydon, South Sector Superintendent III with California State Parks. During your visit, these tips will not only keep you safe but will also help limit your environmental impact on the unique ecosystem that is Trestles. Not only do human entrants have the potential to damage the fragile environmental resources providing food and shelter for plant and animal life, one may also come across dangerous wildlife such as rattlesnakes. The natural preserve is home to some 200 plant species, 100 bird species and nearly 20 terrestrial mammals, and the San Mateo Creek Watershed acts as a filtration system to keep the surf clean. Do the wetland’s habitants and yourself a favor and stay out.

Steer clear of the wetlands.

Aside from being highly dangerous, crossing the train tracks, which is private railroad property, is considered trespassing. It’s illegal. Since Trestles is not accessible by vehicle, the hike to the break is a trek. But it is one long walk that takes visitors through a pristine nature trail. Stay safe, avoid the tracks and take in the surrounding wildlife.

Do not cross the railroad tracks.

Trestles is a world-class surfing site. And during the Hurley and Swatch pros, eyes around the world will be fixated on this local treasure. Let’s keep it clean. Be certain to pick up trash—even if it isn’t yours. Don’t place stickers on signs and outhouses or write on paved areas with surf wax. It looks bad and it is considered vandalism. Remember to soak up the park, ride the waves and pack up your trash and belongings before you depart in order to leave the beach a little better than you found it.

Avoid leaving a personal mark.

Do not place wetsuits, towels or boards on any of the natural vegetation or trashcans. As visitors and stewards, we must all be aware of the impacts we have on our surroundings.

No hang ups.

Take a break from the action and pause for a moment to revel in the beauty, tranquility and sense of your surroundings. Then, try to imagine your experience if the Lower Trestles area of San Onofre State Beach were something other than a park.

understand why Trestles is a special place.

For the second year in a row, Hurley took a less conventional approach to fill one of the allotted wildcard spots: Leaving it up to a public vote in a week-long, virtual surf event. Hundreds of hopefuls from all over the world submitted video entries, which were then narrowed down to the top 16—and put on display for public voting. The top 16 was comprised of some of the greatest young surfers in the world including: Jack Freestone, Patrick Gudauskas, Dusty Payne and Matt Banting. Costa Rican Carlos Muñoz wasn’t one of the bigger names on the roster, but what he lacked in international popularity, he more than made up for in national backing and impressive clips. From the first day of online voting, Muñoz dominated his heats, garnering double and triple the points of his competitors. After three exciting rounds, Muñoz came face-to-face with Hawaiian Dusty Payne in the final. With the Costa Rica national futbol team leading the charge, the nation united—via social media, web, radio and national television—to back the country’s most talented young surfer, granting him the opportunity of the lifetime: a chance to join the world’s best at Lower Trestles. “This year was really exciting. We made the push for global entries, with the hopes of someone like Carlos getting the opportunity of a lifetime,” said Pat O’Connell, VP of sports marketing at Hurley. “He’s an amazing surfer and we are really excited to have him here at the Hurley Pro.” Muñoz will join top San Clemente surfer Tanner Gudauskas, who won the second wildcard slot up for grabs by way of the Trestles-located Hurley Pro Local Trials in July. Gudauskas took the win over a tough field of competitors, using his local knowledge of the waves at Trail 6 to navigate the tough conditions with ease. With ample hometown support on the beach, a Gudauskas win at Lowers would make for the feel-good headline of the year. HURLEY PRO | SWATCH WOMEN’S PRO | SEPTEMBER 9–20, 2014 | TRESTLES, CA

Zero to Trestles

Gudauskas is Wild San Clemente’s own Tanner Gudauskas has been surfing alongside his brothers Dane and Patrick at Lowers for years. Now, as the Hurley Pro gets underway, the youngest Gudauskas brother steps into the international spotlight as one of two wildcards vying for a win against the ASP Top 34. Tanner locked down his contest spot in July after battling it out against brother Patrick in the finals of the Hurley Pro Local Trials at Trestles. San Clemente Times reporter Andrea Papagianis caught up with Tanner as he traveled to Portugal to compete in the Sata Airlines Azores Pro. Below is a snapshot of their conversation on competing before the local crowd and brotherly competition. SC Times: Being a San Clemente native, you’ve been watching the world’s best at Trestles for years. How does it feel to now be competing against the ASP TOP 34 with the likes of six-time Trestles champion Kelly Slater, Mick Fanning, Joel Parkinson, Jordy Smith and last year’s winner Taj Burrow? TG: This is my first time being able to compete at that top level at Lowers and I couldn’t be more stoked. When I fell off tour four years ago, this was the very next event that I didn’t get to be in. So, I am freaking to get to surf against all the top dogs in my backyard. Last year, watching Pat get into the quarterfinals was super exciting with the energy from all our friends on the beach. That’s the best part of competing where you live: Getting to share the experience with your crew, win or lose everyone is getting the moment. SCT: In July, you became the first of two wildcards through the local trials. To make the competition interesting, you and Patrick wound up in the finals together—but only one could come out

on top. Being the youngest of three brothers, competition had to be a part of your upbringing. What was it like vying for this wildcard against your own brother? TG: The trials are a huge opportunity for all locals. It’s a good feeling event too because eight locals and eight Hurley surfers come down and hangout all day … and compete together. It’s a camaraderie event for all of us in San Clemente to tribe up and try to get a surfer into the event, whoever it is. I was super nervous actually surfing against Patrick in the final because I couldn’t stop thinking about surfing at Lowers in a World Championship Tour event. I look up to him a lot and we travel year-round for competitions so it felt like I really earned the win. SCT: San Clemente is home. It’s where you Pat and Dane have grown up and where you’ve reached out the next generation of surfers through your annual Stoke-O-Rama contest. Any added pressure with a big, local cheering squad backing you? TG: No pressure. It’s all fun especially because there really aren’t any ramifications in terms of qualifying if I win or lose. I just want to go out and show the WCT surfers that I want to be at that level and feel like its mojo time! SCT: Also, do you have anything in your back pocket, any Lowers secrets, that can bring you out on top? TG: Haha! No back-pocket tricks. Lowers is one of the most rippable waves on the planet so it’s not necessarily a local knowledge spot. But, I have surfed out there my entire life. So, who knows? SCT: Speaking of Stoke-O-Rama, how important is it for you to spread your love of the water and surfing to younger locals? TG: Stoke-O-Rama is my favorite day out of the year. It’s unbelievable how psyched the kids who compete in it are. Instead of just a surf event it is a day that all the surfers of San Clemente come down and hang out, stoke out and become friends. This year it will be the day that follows the Hurley pro, Sept. 21. We expanded the event by 20 kids and still didn’t have enough room for everyone—stoke is growing.

Lakey Peterson was catapulted into the national spotlight with a junior title win at Trestles in 2009. At just 14, the underdog competitor took the field of female surfers by storm with a first-ever women’s aerial maneuver in competition that ultimately landed her the NSSA Open Women’s Title. She’s spent the last five years perfecting those moves, taking her surfing, and propelling the competition, to a new level. Now, sitting at No. 6 in the ASP Top 17, Lakey returns to Lower Trestles, home of the break that sent her on an upward trajectory in the surfing community, alongside surf’s toughest female contenders as the women’s World Championship Tour hits the iconic locale for the first time.

“I am so excited to be back at Lowers,” Peterson said. “It is such a progressive wave and it gives the women an opportunity to really showcase the level that we surf at now.” The ASP women’s World Championship Tour added three new destinations to the 2014 lineup that has seen the Top 17 surf famous breaks from Australia to Fiji with stops in France, Portugal, Brazil and California along the way, as these top competitors push the envelope to further develop the sport. “All the girls will be ripping … it’s going to be a fun one to be a part of and also to watch,” Peterson said. In her third year on the WCT, Peterson revisits the site of her first big win—a returning home, rounding the bases or coming full circle of sorts in her short, but

powerful, professional surfing career. The daughter of a national swimming champion and a Santa Barbara native, Peterson spent her life around the ocean. She excelled on the tennis court and picked up surfing as a hobby after a trip to Manley Beach, Australia. But her sights remained on tennis, on becoming a pro. That all changed one winter. “By the time I hit 11 we had an amazing winter of waves and I think I finally got the full experience of what it is like to surf a good wave,” Peterson recalled. “After that I stopped tennis and turned everything to surfing. It was the best decision I ever made.” The young surfer entered contests and her skills excelled rapidly. Within three years, Peterson topped the NSSA competition, taking home the open women’s title, in a year that saw San Clemente native, and now ASP Top 34 competitor, Kolohe Andino take the national men’s open title. She defended that title in 2010 and by 16 was vying for a wildcard entry in the U.S. Open of Surfing—a contest she won in 2012 during her rookie year on the World Championship Tour. In 2013, the documentary film Zero to 100 chronicling Peterson’s journey from novice to professional was released, quickly rising to a No. 1 spot on iTunes, like its heroine had risen within the surfing world. “No other female had really done a project quite like this before and I felt like I was letting the whole world into my life pretty deeply,” Peterson said. “I wasn’t sure … what the reaction was going to be, but it’s been so fun looking back on it now and seeing the positive response to it all. It made me realize that the story, and the way it was told, had the ability to resonate with quite a diverse audience.” Peterson wanted a film with a positive message: Get up and go do what you love. It is a motto that she herself has lived by and something she puts into practice every day, both in and out of the water. —Andrea Papagianis SANCLEMENTETIMES.COM



Gerlach (USA) v. Potter (GBR) 1980s legends face off in ASP Heritage Series Two surfers, who rose to legendary status three decades ago with their infamous aerial brawls, Brad Gerlach and Martin Potter, will once again face off—this time against the consistent, high-performance wave that is Trestles. The pair will battle it out in the ASP Heritage Series running in conjunction with the Hurley Pro and Swatch Women’s Pro or stops No. 8 and No. 7, respectively, on the 2014 men’s and women’s ASP World Championship Tour, running Sept. 9 through 20 at Lower Trestles. The ASP Heritage Series is an initiative launched earlier this year to honor and commemorate iconic contributors to the sport of surfing. Through rematches between iconic surfers, like the 1980s legends Gerlach and Potter, video profiles and even a bit of sport history, ASP hopes to engage surf fans across multiple platforms while introducing them to the pioneers and founders of the sport.

The inaugural matchup at the J-Bay Open, WCT stop No. 6, in Jeffreys Bay, South Africa saw American Tom Curren square off against Australian Mark ‘Occy’ Occhilupo in perfect 6- to 8-foot waves before the world’s elite surfers, who themselves regard the duo as J-Bay’s all-time bests. “It was kind of like this back and forth thing,” Potter recalled during a squaretable talk with Mick Fanning, Kelly Slater, Joel Parkinson and CJ Hobgood on the first heritage matchup. “What was special for me was a lot of guys in our era were kind of scared of surfing against Tom because he was so good, Occy wasn’t, Occy was quite verbal about it, ‘What’s the big deal about this guy? He’s easy to beat.’” Curren, a three-time ASP World Champion, proved more difficult for Occhilupo to beat that day, making an early exit from the water after a convincing, and perfect, 10-point ride solidified his victory. At Lowers, Potter, who was from Great Britain but developed his surfing in South Africa and won the 1989 ASP World Title, will face Gerlach, a longtime tour stalwart from Encinitas, in the Heritage Heat. The Hurley Pro, Swatch Women’s Pro and heritage event will be webcast live at aspworldtour.com.—Andrea Papagianis

Machado’s Fantasy Picks Debating fantasy pick-ups? Rob Machado drafts his Fantasy Surfer selections If you wanted some mentoring on how to pick a winning Fantasy Surfer team, you might want to start by getting some pointers from Rob Machado. The style icon and Pipe Master has spent his fair share of time at Lowers and has toured with the world’s best, garnering a unique view on the Association of Surfing Professionals Top 34. So, what are Rob’s ingredients for a winning team? Here’s a bit of advice from the man himself: Pick up surfers with a well-rounded repertoire and those who have already proven themselves capable at Lowers. It seems simple enough, right?

Nat Young

Young will excel at Lowers since he’s a goofy-foot with a really good backhand, which is very important for Trestles. Plus, he can do airs on the lefts if he has to. He’s a good allaround guy who has a lot of experience surfing at Lowers from his days in NSSA.

Joel Parkinson

Joel is one of my favorite surfers. He has a super smooth style. There’s a lot of flow in his surfing and he’s one of the best at connecting maneuvers together. All around, his style suits Trestles very well. In the past he’s had some of the highest scores out there and is a previous winner. If it’s pumping, he’ll do well.

Julian Wilson

Julian is very progressive, which is not only fun to watch at Lowers but crucial for doing

little too much with the whole town riding on you. But he’s goofy-foot and loves the lefts at Lowers, I feel confident with Tanner.

Miguel Pupo

AUS USA USA USA AUS USA USA AUS USA AUS AUS AUS

Miguel is a previous winner at Lowers. He won the Nike 6.0 Lowers Pro in 2011 so he has that going for him. If he has a good board under his feet he’ll be doing huge airs on the left. Plus, this year at Snapper he also proved that he can perform on the rights.

Kolohe Andino

After starting off the year pretty slow he’s gained a lot of momentum and has been on a roll for the last four events. As a local, he’ll be sleeping in his own bed and have a lot of support behind him. If Kolohe were going to break through and win an event this would be it.

Freddy Patacchia

HAW

well. He brings that X-factor if he can do a giant frontside or backside air. On top of his skill, he hasn’t had the best year and is probably very determined to do well here.

Tanner Gudauskas

Tanner is equipped with local knowledge and undoubtedly will have a massive amount of fan support on the beach. That being said, wildcards are unpredictable—it all depends on how he handles that pressure. It’s good to have that support but sometimes it can be a

Freddy had the craziest amateur career at Trestles ever. I think he may have won something like eight national titles at Trestles. If he gets into a good groove, has a good board and things click, he has the knowledge and the ability to perform and take down some big names.

Owen Wright

Owen is back from taking a year off and he’s super fit. The only downside for Owen is his size: He stands at 6 feet 3 inches tall. So, if the waves are small it could work against him but if there’s surf he’s a dangerous draw.
