Clay is unequivocally one of the most talented freesurfers on the planet. Diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome a year ago, his minor idiosyncrasies are more understood now, which is translating into more inspired, more jaw-dropping performances in the water. Mix Clay’s unique approach to surfing and the high-performance waves lapping at the shores in Bali, Clay will be sure to draw plenty of attention as a wildcard in the Championships. |
