His characteristics as a risky surfer make him very vulnerable to injury in 2016 he was left out of two events due to injury Another of his problems has been his behavior Due to a series of mistakes made in 2017 he was suspended from an event for arguing with the judges after a competition
The year 2019 was also in style as he came to compete for the world championship in Pipeline but it was not enough and he managed to arrive again in 4th place
