Cloudbreak delivered building six-to-eight foot (2 – 2.5 meter) waves, and John John Florence and Taj Burrow surfed the heat of the season. When someone loses a heat with a total score of 18.60 points, it’s easy to guess what happened. Taj Burrow, 38, rode the last wave of his 18-year career on the Championship Tour career, and Florence had to be his ultimate opponent. What a heat. “That was one of the best heats of my life. Every time I got off the ski and got out the back, a crazy perfect wave would be there, and I’d be in the perfect spot. I could not have picked a better way to finish my last event ever,” explained Burrow.
