    Tatiana Weston-Webb

    Body Glove International would like to congratulate Tati Weston-Webb on her Gold Medal win in the VISSLA ISA World JR Championships this past weekend. The event was held in Salinas, Ecuador and featured great waves and the level of surfing was second to none.

    Tati defended her gold metal for girls under 18 division and posted the highest total score of the entire event, 18.16. She also, earned the highest single wave score in the girls division with a 9.83. Tati was also a member of the gold medal winning Hawaii team, which beat 32 other National Teams for the win.

    “I want to thank my family back at home and from all over the world, you are the best! And the family that I have here in Ecuador is unbelievable,” states Tati. “I watched the waves from earlier heats and also I watched Mahina win, just like last year, so I got super pumped from that. The waves were on my front hand and I always have so much fun on those waves. I just want to thank the ISA for having such a great venue and put on such a spectacular event. I can’t wait to come here maybe as a coach or as a Hawaii Team Member, helping the young kids surf. I just can’t be thankful enough.”

    “We are so proud of Tati and the Hawaiian JR Surf Team for their amazing accomplishments,” says Cheyne Magnusson, Body Glove Team Manager.  “We consider ourselves very lucky to be able to support Tati in all her future surfing endeavors. Congrats!”
