In 2012, a Fijian surfer the world had never heard of earned the chance to compete against the best surfers the world has ever seen. This is his story.

At Cloudbreak, rated by many as the best wave in the World, local boatman and surf guide, Isei Tokovou has won a wildcard entry into the Volcom Fiji Pro, a World Championship competition with more than $400,000 in prize money.

Surfing with hand-me-down boards and without a trainer or support team, Isei carries the hopes of a nation into competition.
