Thomas Traversa had an epic year in the competition world! One of the smallest guys on tour, Traversa put on an impressive show. Cabo Verde is one of his favorite places to sail and he finished in 7th! Gran Canaria is definitely not his favorite place to sail and he pulled off a 9th over there. The Final PWA event in Germany set the stage for Thomas to make his mark on the tour! He won the Fuerte wave classic in some really big waves and finished the PWA Wave tour in 5th place Overall. Thomas spent a  lot of time on the road in search of perfect waves! “All I want to do is find better and better waves. I love the ocean and the power it has- it is an amazing feeling to hit the lip of a 20 foot wall of water- I love it!” says Thomas.
