Much to ponder.
When history recalls its great couples, Gabriel Medina and his step-dad/coach Charlie will certainly be counted amongst them. The two became a fixture on the scene when young Gabriel burst onto it a decade ago. Him thrusting and jiving, never falling. Charlie hooting and whistling, tiger-eye’d. Much success followed, two World Titles etc. but now the ride is officially over with Gabriel announcing the two have parted ways and that he is looking for a new coach.
But which of the two will go on to even greater success, alone? Which will stumble into oblivion?
Do you recall when Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez dated, both at the heights of their games? Justin went on to marry a Baldwin. Selena, I think, didn’t.
Or Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe. Reese many accolades and films. Ryan not.
The easy call is that Gabriel will soar and Charlie will disappear but not so fast for Gabriel also announced that Charlie will focus on coaching his younger sister.
Tyler Wright 2.0? More famous than Gabriel and more popular too?
The future is female.
