Presents International Surfing Association y Surf School Tubes 

Yesterday, Slater told reporters that the day before, when the worst of the typhoon brought waves to Miyazaki, he had spent about seven or eight hours surfing at different spots along the coast.

An Instagrammer, @IngridSurf, who came for the event and was touring Japan, gave it away with a perfect right hand that shattered it.

Apparently it is close to the event venue, to the south but not too far and within Miyazaki prefecture.

He who knows, knows.
