Tank is extremely arrogant, disrespectful, vain, egotistical, competitive, stubborn, egomaniacal, boastful, egocentric, catty, self-absorbed, snide, pompous, jealous and selfish.
He seems to be more ignorant and cowardly than in the first film as it shows he feared for his own life surfing in the dangerous waters during a thunderstorm.
He competed against the famous surfer, Big Z, during a surfing contest on Pen Gu Island. During the surf off, Tank wiped Big Z out. Tired and knowing that he couldn't compete against Tank, Big Z faked a disappearance. Following this, a surfing contest called "The Big Z Memorial Surf Off" started and was won by Tank nine times.
