RealSurf Surfers' Forum

I haven't watched the whole event, but from what I saw, there didn't appear to be anyone truly elite on their backhand this year. No one in the league of Kelly at his best, Andy and Bruce, JJF, Jack Robinson etc. I felt the goofies like Owen and Gabe who were deserving finalists were a level above. ...

Owen has had so many barrels this week.

What was kelly mad about mid heat splashing the water in anger at the judges?
I kind of just glanced past it then.

Barton said today that he still has a world title in him.

Magic Seaweed says Lennox is 6.5ft at 15 seconds and has awarded 5 stars. Every Cnut and his dog are down here, literally the most crowded dawn patrol I've ever seen. It's a very weak and slow 2-3ft. One wave sets. Sad. Well the local here was pretty busy (with locals), then there was a 30min chang...

yeh, nah.

I could have failed to find a park and driven straight home, for one.

Sadly, that was my only chance to surf today.
Sat in the car and watched the whales instead.
Could be worse.

I reckon they would try drink each other under the table and miss a good surf off opportunity in clean uncrowded waves the following morning.

How do you differentiate re-entry from the other moves mentioned earlier?

Sounds like a surf-off is brewing.
We need a neutral location.
Maldives is about halfway isn’t it?

Looks like a nice 6-8ft day at bells without the girth to scare any punters away.
That could be the elusive 7 footer.

This is my twin fin hps in action yesterday. You can all see how well it holds.

Did they pay him for the photo (outside of a salary)?

For posterity.

you think that fin configuration was nothing but a "witticism"?

that would be highly unusual behaviour.

It was more sheepish behavior as my mates were going out on twins and I, having sold mine, thought I’d chuck those in and see how it went.

Nice to see your mug in abc online.

The pretend carbon or the fin setup?

It’s real.
Not sure if it does anything though.
