Surfer of the Week - 2/17/2020

JOJO WHELAN

Age:	17
Hometown:	Newport Mesa, California
School:	Newport Harbor High School; 11th grade. Favorite subject: Math and Physics
Sponsors:	Quiksilver, Darren Handley Designs (DHD), Caliente Southwest Grill, Citizen Water Co., Jack's Surfboards, and Tava Sunscreen.
Equipment:	6’1” DNA made by DHD
Claim to Fame:	Southwest Open Season event 7 was held in firing conditions at HB Pier in about as picture perfect as southside’s infamous sandbars can get. Overhead, glassy righthand lines and bluebird conditions were on offer after the fog cleared and Jojo delivered an outstanding triumphant performance. Known as “Big Bird” (yes, name taken from the 8’2” Sesame Street character) to his family and friends, the 17-year-old got things going right off the bat, taking first in his round one heat and never let his foot off the gas. He won every heat leading up to the final and then prevailed stomping his first win of the season. “I got an 8.33 at the start of the heat and then patiently waited 10 minutes for a backup score” Jojo said. “After that, I decided to stay busy and build up to a solid back up because it was so inconsistent in the middle of the heat.” Jojo is in a comfort zone on southside growing up down the street in Newport and he used that knowledge and skill of HB’s notoriously tricky and changing conditions in the final. He also works with local Brett Simpson who has a ton to offer especially when it comes to heat strategy, positioning and insider tips for competing on surfing’s biggest stage. In 2018/19, Jojo had a breakthrough season looking like he was well on his way to a becoming a championship contender, but he suffered a major setback with a substantial injury at the West Coast Regionals. He broke his fibula in a freak accident in his heat sidelining him for the Nationals and wiping out any hopes of winning a 15U Open Juniors title. “Watching the championships was hard because that season had been one of my best yet,” he said. “But it was still fun watching everyone compete.” Refusing to indulge in self-pity, Jojo focused on the positives and used his injury as a catalyst for bigger and better things. Benefitting from the adversity rather than shrinking from it, he worked tirelessly rehabbing the leg all summer to make it back in time for the start of the 19/20 season. “The injury definitely made me mentally stronger. Staying out of the water for that long was one of the hardest things I’ve done in my life. It had a way of making me more motivated than ever to succeed no matter what new challenges come my way.” As if the injury never happened, Jojo approached the new season with determination and his surfing is clearly at a higher level as noted by his number 3 ranking in the Open Mens division. He is the second surfer from Newport to earn Surfer of the Week honors joining fellow Newport Harbor surfer David O’Keefe who won the award in December. “Newport Beach is a tight surf community, Jojo said. “We know everyone, and we all look out for each other in and out of the water!” Favorite thing about HB Pier: How rippable the wave is. It’s a high-performance wave and it’s the location of the US Open. Age you started surfing: I started surfing when I was about 5 years old with my Dad. We would go down to the beach every weekend and surf all morning. Local spot: Newport 56th Street. Surf crew: Taj Miller, David Okeefe, Aaron Clark, Hadyn Norwood, Zeke Choi and Zander Adehlson. Favorite surfers: Ethan Ewing, Dane Reynolds, and John John Florence. Both Ethan and John John have the best styles in the world and are all around super fun to watch. Dane is one of the best free surfers in the world and goes all in on each maneuver he does. Favorite surfers from Newport: Dave Post and Josh Hoyer. Both of those guys were super progressive in their era and still rip super hard to this day. Fantasy Superpower: To be as smart as Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty. Then I could do whatever I want. Hobbies: I like to play guitar every so often. Dream wave: A right version of Teahupoo. If you could surf like anybody in the world who would it be? I would want to surf like Ethan Ewing because he has one of the best styles and his rail surfing is impeccable. Favorite thing about surfing in the NSSA contests? You get to surf and hang out with all of your friends. Who has pushed your surfing the most? My Dad because he pushes me to be the best version of myself I can be and he teaches me that hard work and dedication will always lead to success. Goals for the season: Make World Juniors, win 3 NSSA’s or Primes and catch the biggest wave of my life. Thank yous: Big thank yous to my whole family for supporting me as well as Chad Wells, Brian Wallin, Laine Vaught, Heather Flanagan, every one of my sponsors and all of my friends for continuing to support me.
