Published On: 4 June 2022

WAIS scholarship holder Jack Robinson has claimed back to back World Surf League victories, by winning the Quiksilver Pro G-Land in Indonesia.

After navigating his way through the rounds, Robinson set up a finals match against current world number one Filipe Toledo (BRA), who as a lightning-fast natural footer chalked up a solid heat lead early in the matchup.

On the back foot Robinson was chasing a score for the entire matchup. Robinson had a few attempts but was unable to secure the score needed, until with only seconds left, Robinson took off on a medium set wave and jammed three critical backside snaps to post a 7.00 point ride (out of a possible 10) and clinch his second CT victory in as many events. Robinson is now sitting firmly in second on the rankings behind Toledo.

“I thank the ocean for giving me that last wave in the final seconds, it was an unbelievable finish,” Robinson said.

“I stayed calm, remained confident, and I believed a wave would come to me. This is such an unpredictable and crazy sport.

“I’m taking each event as it comes and remaining focused and taking back-to-back wins feels great.”
