Gony’s performance is guaranteed to jump into the ASP WQS Tour Top 20 and getting closer to the 10,000 point mark.
“It’s a dream coming true right now, I can’t believe I have won that event,” Gony said. “Since I left the junior series I have been looking to make a final in a major event and I have finally won my first one ever so I couldn’t hope for anything better. I was feeling good this week and almost at home with the huge support and I was pretty relaxed in the final, just letting my surfing flow and it went right. I am just stoked.”
Electric would like to congratulate and give a huge shout out to Gony for this huge result.
