The World Champion, Carissa Moore is home! She pulled a Houdini on us!

The World Champ, Carissa Moore, came home to Hawaii today! Media, families and friends were there to greet her at the airport.

we waited... waited...

waited... and waited more.

Carissa pulled one Houdini on us. She came from behind us surprising us instead of us surprising her! We were waiting and all of the sudden I saw her standing behind her dad. We had to chase her down! She might be a World Champ now, but still a normal 18 yr old girl. ha ha.

Finally we got to greet the champ!

Carissa's sister, Cayla, IS the biggest fan of her older sister. It was cool to see them unite again. I heard Cayla stayed up all night to witness Carissa win her title over here in Hawaii.

Even before all of us get to welcome Carissa back home, the media was all over her.

We could totally tell Carissa is a well educated World Champ. She spoke really well even after her long trip back to Hawaii from France.

After the media had their turn, other friends got to welcome her back.

Miko from NSSA Hawaii. Aunti Bobbi couldn't be there since she's not on Oahu but it was nice to see Miko took her time to welcome home NSSA graduate.

Mr. RedBull Hawaii, Rob Mora. He's been working non stop after Carissa's win organizing everything for Carissa's home coming. I'm pretty sure he hasn't slept in few days and he won't be sleeping for few more days. BUT he's not complaining tho, he's just stoked their rider is now the youngest World Champ ever!
We are all so proud of Carissa! We all knew this day will come and I'm stoked I could be there to welcome her back home.

She's here for 5 days and back to Cali for US Open! Hope she gets to rest and recharge here at home.

Congrats Carissa!
