"Damien Hobgood" is a professional surfer from Satellite Beach, Florida. He is known for having once held the highest two-wave grand final score in pro surfing by scoring 19.9 out of 20 (under the current Association of Surfing Professionals/ASP system) at The Quiksilver Pro Fiji in 2004 until Kelly Slater eclipsed it the following year at Teahupo'o in the final with a perfect 20.

I surfed against C.J. in Japan the only time a year ago and he beat me pretty bad. But he ended up winning that contest, so that was OK.

I hope the experience we have can help other people. It's great, because we get to see the people who enjoy surfing, and we'll be able to meet the customers' needs.
