Bio
Thanks to Saffas like Royden Bryson, South Africa is once again getting the credit it deserves for breeding world-class surfers on its fertile shores. With guidance from tour veteran Travis Logie and joined by rookie Jordy Smith, Bryson’s development as a competitive surfer has given him a solid footing in the ratings and a professional savvy that will only mature as the season continues.
Once known for his wild ways, Bryson now trains hard, surfs daily and concentrates on his sport. He pushes his progression with massive turns and has undoubtedly become a standout surfer. The sky is the limit for South Africa, and after building steady momentum throughout his career, the progressive goofy footer is right in the thick of it.
