R.I.P.PER Guam surfing today mourns the lost of one of its greatest surfing talents ever. BRIAN “The Ripper” Cruz

 

 

Small Body BIG Charger.
Can remember Brian having an argument with another Guam bodyborder in the parking lot and he was at tears talking about why he charged so hard and why he put things on the line–because he wanted to represent Guam and so that no outsider would ever come to Guam and show up the locals.. He continued on to vent that what mattered most in his life was his kids.

Burn and Shine, no contesting that the The guy was on Fire

Nobody’s perfect, but his surfing was INSANE. His Love for Guam was real. One of Guams most winning surf competitors at the least.
FLY Ripper. May God be with your soul and your family.
Will miss seeing you in the water. Barrels and Backflips for Life
