Pro Men Surf
Connor Burns
I have been going to the lake with my family for as long as I can remember. I always enjoyed it, but when I learned how to wakesurf, my whole life changed! In 2016, we bought our first surf boat and have been going after it ever since. I love pushing myself to land new tricks and advance the sport of wakesurfing.
I’m an only child with supportive parents that are always willing to help me with lake time for practice. Wakesurfing has opened a whole new world to me as I have met friends and families from all different countries and really enjoy learning about different cultures and lifestyles.
In 2016 I went undefeated and won the Amateur World Championships. The next year I skipped Outlaw and went right to the Pro division where I competed with the best in the sport. I was happy to hit the podium several times that year and landed in fourth place at the 2017 World Championships. 2018 was a solid year for me as I podiumed at every event, placed first at several events, and was able to become the 2018 World Champion.
