After taking out the recent Skullcandy Oz Grom Open pres. by Vissla Pro Junior and jumping four spots on the JQS rankings, current second place holder TeKehukehu Butler (NZL) is hoping to make a solid play at the 2018 JQS title and take the title back to New Zealand. A win for Butler would mean he's the first New Zealander since Maz Quinn to win the Australasian Pro Junior series.
"The 2018 Pro Junior events have been so fiercely contested," said Butler. "My whole goal for the year was to qualify for the World Junior Championship, but I'd love to go one step further and take out the rankings as well. Hopefully, we get a few playful little waves in Cronulla and the series finishes with a bang."
