BANTING WINS US OPEN PRO JUNIOR

Port Macquarie’s Matt Banting has won the US Open of Surfing Pro Junior at Huntington Beach in California.

In the final minutes, the 19-year-old posted a nine point ride, launching him into first position against his three competitors.

“For that last wave to come in the last two minutes was a gift from god, it’s just heaven”

Banting is also competing in the open event, and will go up against Brazil’s Filipe Toledo in the quarterfinals, after beating Jadson Andre in the round of 16.
