Profile of a

Junior is completely unstopable...

in oh so many ways. Think of Beavis from MTV'S "Beavis and Butthead- after he drinks a dozen cups of coffee and downs fist fulls of candy- and then turns into "Cornholio!" Now imagine a kid with the same energy level and demeanour running loose 24/7 on a surf rampage, only Junior doesn't need the caffeine or the sugar. On land and in the water Junior is always amped.

If you want to find Junior, he can be found daily in the lineup at Santana charging thick barrels, busting gigantic fly-away airs, screaming at the top of his lungs...."BUITRE!" It seems as if Junior is seocnd in the chain of command, fittingly of cousre, his brother "Super" Mario- runs the whole show. Between the two of them trying to split a peak ususally envolves leaving you going the forgotten direction in surfing...straight.

Most all are in agreeance that alongside his younger brother, Yubert Junior is one of the most rapidly improving surfers of the Santana gang. Buitre! is stoked to sponsor him, after all he and his friends started the whole movement and he is the epidomy of a Buitre Surf
