B<\/span>ettylou Sakura Johnson has been in the ocean for as long as she can remember. <\/span><\/p>\n

As a child, she and her family would practically go to the beach every day. There, her parents would place her on a surfboard and push her into waves until she learned to stand and navigate the board on her own. Soon after, the Hale\u02bbiwa native entered the Menehune Surf Contest and it wouldn\u2019t be long before she began to experience victory.<\/span><\/p>\n

At age 12, Johnson won the U.S. Open of Surfing competition in Huntington, California \u2014 a qualification meet for the World Surf League and one that pitted her against youth from Hawai\u2018i and the East and West coasts. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat was probably my first really big contest that I won and was (the) moment that \u2026 I believed that I could be a pro surfer and really do it,\u201d recalls Johnson. \u201cThat\u2019s when I decided I wanted to pursue professional surfing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

It turned out to be a good decision. <\/span><\/p>\n

This past year marked a breakthrough for Johnson, 20, who captured her first two WSL Championship Tour events and finished the season ranked fifth overall. (The 2025 WSL Championship Tour kicked off in January with the Lexus Pipe Pro, which took place at Pipeline, and was comprised of 12 events, and concluded in September at the Lexus WSL Finals Fiji.) <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt felt great. It was one of my biggest accomplishments I\u2019ve had of being on tour \u2014 even though you can always want so much more,\u201d says Johnson, who won the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro in Gold Coast, Queensland, in Australia, and followed that up with victory at the Lexus Trestles Pro in California. \u201cYou always dream of becoming No. 1 in the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI did a lot of hard work to even get to No. 5, so I\u2019m still really proud of that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Naturally, her family is equally proud of her latest professional accomplishment.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s worked hard to get there,\u201d says her mother, Shinobu Johnson. \u201cIt has been really fun to watch her progress, learn and grow. We are just very happy to see her doing what she loves to do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Although she\u2019s in between seasons now, Johnson notes that she trains year-round, surfing at least an hour every day and sometimes for as many as eight hours if the waves are really good. In addition, she\u2019s constantly working out on land, doing Pilates and weight training. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re always constantly trying to better yourself because in surfing, there\u2019s no limit,\u201d she explains. \u201cYou can always get better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Another thing that keeps her locked in is studying other surfers. She grew up admiring Andy Irons and Stephanie Gilmore and also looks up to Malia Manuel of Kaua\u2018i. <\/span><\/p>\n

While she always feels at home in the ocean, Johnson says it\u2019s natural for her to become a bit anxious before getting into the water for a surf contest. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes the nerves are there and sometimes they aren\u2019t,\u201d she says. \u201cFor me, what works best is a lot of breathing strategies and being able to calm myself down and being more present always helps me. Honestly, just trusting that moment and going into the heat knowing that you\u2019ve prepared the most you could. So, that usually helps me for sure.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Her victories last season meant a lot to Johnson because of the obstacles she\u2019s had to overcome. In 2023, she tore her labrum in her right shoulder, which required surgery, and that took her out of the water for nearly four months. She had to do physical therapy almost twice a day and went through intense training to be able to be ready for the next season. <\/span><\/p>\n

In 2022, Johnson was the youngest woman on the WSL Championship Tour and struggled with bouts of inadequacy. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI did feel a little intimidation. I definitely knew that with the way I was surfing that I deserved to be where I was at, but I also didn\u2019t have as much experience as all the older girls,\u201d she says. \u201cSo, it was intimidating in that way, but I just had to trust and know that I\u2019m here for a reason and that reason is because my level of that age was great and I deserved to be there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Her accomplishments have opened many opportunities for her, including signing brand deals with Monster Energy, Oakley, G-Shock and also RVCA. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been with RVCA for three years now, so quite a new partnership, but they\u2019re really awesome and it feels like family to be with them and to be a part of the team,\u201d says Johnson. \u201cIt\u2019s an honor because I feel they represent Hawai\u2018i very well and I always see my friends wearing RVCA, so it\u2019s really cool.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

One of Johnson\u2019s sweetest accomplishments happened close to her North Shore home. In 2021, she rode off with the Hale\u2018iwa Challenger title and, as a result, earned the nickname \u201cQueen of Hale\u2018iwa.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat contest was very special. It was honestly my first big win that I\u2019ve had in the World Surf League, for the Challenger Series,\u201d she says. \u201cTo win at home is the best feeling ever because you\u2019re celebrating with all your friends and your family, and you won in front of the people that have supported you since day one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

A<\/span>s much as she loves being in the ocean, Johnson also spends considerable time caring for it as well. She actively participates in WSL\u2019s One Ocean initiative in which the organization partners with nonprofits at every stop of the competition to help clean the area. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think that\u2019s super important and very special that WSL is partnered with One Ocean and that allows us surfers to be able to commit our time and give back in a way,\u201d says Johnson, who received a Po\u2018okela Award last year for being one of the athletes to attend the most One Ocean events. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was super honored to receive that because I didn\u2019t really know that they were giving out awards at that time,\u201d she continues. \u201cI just loved giving back my time to every spot that we went to. I feel like it always goes a long way. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think giving back is everything really. It\u2019s being able to give your time to a community that you were visiting at or surfing somewhere else, and you\u2019re surfing the waves and you just want to feel more gratitude and give back in a way. That\u2019s my way of giving my thanks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On the North Shore, Johnson serves her community by participating in the aforementioned Hale\u2018iwa Menehune Contest. Sometimes, she helps judge the event and hands out awards with the contest jerseys she receives. She\u2019s also donated her old surfboards to the next generation of surfers. <\/span><\/p>\n

When asked what words of wisdom she\u2019d like to share with aspiring surfers, Johnson responds, \u201cMy advice would be to constantly go in the ocean and keep trying even though it may seem impossible or really hard. You can only better yourself in the ocean. Just enjoy it and have fun and know that the ocean is a safe place and know your limits.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For Johnson, surfing often represents freedom.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re really given the whole canvas of a wave to put your own art on, to surf the wave however you want,\u201d she explains. \u201cI think just the freedom and being allowed to do what you want on a wave is one of the best feelings.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI would say surfing was my first love so it changed everything,\u201d she adds. \u201cIt was a place where I felt safe, felt happy and just at peace.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what\u2019s on the horizon for the young professional surfer?<\/span><\/p>\n

Aside from her ongoing preparations for next year\u2019s WSL Tour, which begins in April, Johnson can be found enjoying life these days at her main hiking spots, M\u0101kua Valley and Stairway to Heaven (the legal trail, of course); eating at her favorite places, Poke For The People and Waiahole Poi Factory; and spending time with her loved ones. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to tell the community and everyone that has supported me just a big thank you and I hope to make everyone proud,\u201d she says. \u201cI hope I represent our community wonderfully all around the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
