"By the end of the trip, I had enormous respect for Chris' surfing. His commitment, refined techniques and courage while surfing deep in the tube, on very serious, thick, square barrels, was absolutely extraodinary. His ability to change his body shape in relationship to applying pressure on his rail so he can weave and change his line through the deepest of barrels is masterful, best of the best" - Wayne Lynch after spending a week on Tavarua with Chris Ward.
