It`s a once in a lifetime opportunity and to do it on Australia Day makes it even more special.

It`s so frustrating! You work so hard to get to a final, so to lose is really hard. I`m thrilled I made it to the final, but at the same time I`m really disappointed with the performance I put on out there.

It`s one of the most remarkable experiences I have ever had.

I wish there were another five minutes in the heat. I`m always upset when I get second. I am disappointed. It took me 25 minutes to find out where I wanted to surf.

I haven`t prepared as much I would like to but it will be fun to get out there again. I have nothing left to prove in surfing but still have the desire to keep going.
