The 2023 Rip Curl Pro Portugal runner-up in Peniche, Jack Robinson, picked up where he left off at Supertubos and found the first excellent score of the event.

The Australian built speed on a fast right and launched into a huge alley-oop rotation, which he landed and rode out of for an 8.83.

He backed it up with a decent second score to advance into the Round of 32.

“I was just trying to go as high as I could,” Robinson said.

“I knew Crosby was probably going to go big too, and the wildcard, you never know, so I tried to make do with what I had."

"It’s good to be back here in Portugal."

"I went to Puerto Rico for the ISAs, and I surfed so many heats there, so I'm just trying to keep up the same energy."

"It’ll be good to have a couple of days off to just recharge and stay present.”
