"Yeah, definitely at Sea Otter I really want to do well. Coming off the Epic win, I'm pretty confident I can carry some of the form that I have."
It's the first time the 30-year-old has been to Monterey, California and the Sea Otter Classic, which he heard about as a child in Cape Town. While he may be at a disadvantage with no race experience on the course and travelling 10,000 air miles (16,400km) to even get to the venue, he said at least he won't have to battle at high elevation, which seems to be a trait for other US events.
