| Damo came 2nd here in 2005, breaking a rib and losing in the final to Kelly. "It's insane - I was stoked to have another chance at it," Hobgood said. "I feel that things happen for a reason and I did my best out here in 2005 and came up short. I replayed that wave in my mind a hundred times going, 'I should have tried to stay in that barrel and not come out doggy-door,' but I feel like I can put that out of my mind now."
