Der 2015 World Champion Adriano de Souza gab gestern in seiner Heimat Brasilien seinen Rücktritt bekannt.

Zum Ende der 2021 World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour (CT) Saison will er sich aus dem Contest Business herausziehen. Nach 15 Jahren „on Tour“ gab er per Videobotschaft seine Entscheidung bekannt.
„A number of things made me come to this decision. For the past 15 years, I gave my life to surfing and was completely dedicated. I lived surfing in a 1000% way. Competing without passion is not the attitude of a champion, and it doesn’t match with the energy of the sport. Now I would like to try some other things, like being part of a special event without so much pressure or go on a surf trip with friends.”
