In a historic moment for the Olympic Games, Team Brazil’s Ítalo Ferreira was crowned the first-ever Olympic champion in men’s surfing. After recovering from a broken board on his first run, the 27-year-old was in irrepressible form, surging ahead of Japan’s silver medallist Kanoa Igarashi.

Japan dude was about being kawaii. He tried so hard to be the kawaii from his dreams.
Japan dude… I mean…he was about being kawaï.
I feel like this limits the amount of places in the world that can hold summer olympic games. You have to pretty much be a coastal city.
KANOA ❤❤❤❤❤

These are the conditions that worried me. Not ideal surfing conditions yet these pros came through
It'll be nice to see the contest in a real surf spot with real waves this time. Of course the two small wave surfers make it to the end in this event and conditions…

The respect these guys have for the waters is truly emotional
love when they all turn back and show the medal to the mother ocean
Lembro que eu e minha irmã estavamos assistindo juntas,por que meu pai já tinha ido dormir e achava que o Italo não ia conseguir ganhar
Quando o Italo ganhou,nós ficamos explodindo de alegria,a gente até acordou meu pai pra falar da vitória,por que foi sensacional!
Orgulho Brasileiro nosso Campeão
I'm so proud of you all
Medina was robbed. Blatantly.
Surfing doesnt seem like something you would score based off of even one days session per stage. If its terrible circumstances it seems more like a lottery contest. I feel it should be judged over a longer period where each contestant has plenty of oppurtunity to get a fair session to be judged and after each contestant has surfed x amount of waves over like a 3 day period then it would be scored off the total combined for a stage.
