Brisa Hennessy had a flawless performance at the Olympics and this gallery shows it.

She is coming off a final at the Teahupoo CT and picked up where she left off.

In round 1 she defeated Candelaria Resano and Johanne Defay, in round 3 Yolanda Hopkins and in the quarterfinals Luana Silva.

Now she will face Tatiana Weston Webb.

Below is the path of ethics by ISA photographers: Pablo Jimenez, Pablo Franco, Tim McKenna and Beatriz Ryder.

Since free surfing and for many years now, Brisa has shown that she knows how to surf backside tubular lefts very well.
The Costa Rican feels comfortable surfing on reefs.
Maneuver well and intubate well.
As a member of the tour, he gets along well with everyone. Pictured here chatting with Molly Picklum.

 

Proud Costa Rican, raised in Matapalo, pouring the sands of her country in the ceremony of the sands of the world.
When the competition began, Brisa managed to find the tubes with the ease that characterizes her.
This one was especially epic, no hands the whole way.
Brisa made 15.56 to beat Johanne Defay and Candelaria Resano in round 1.
Ethics knows how to put the table in the critical.
And when the sea gets rough, she slows down and goes for the tube. In round 3 Brisa beat Yolanda Hopkins and then, on the same day, Luana Silva.
The coach, Kahea Hart, a legendary Hawaiian surfer, is the Costa Rican's right-hand man.
Brisa makes it look easy, but beneath that tube is a dangerous shoal of coral.
Having fun is important.
