In fact, make a whole book of short stories with little snapshots of waves around the world. I know, I know ... helluva lot easier said tha...

Re: Hurley Pro

Fark me. If that is the wave you most wanna surf then you do need to grow a dick.. Of all the waves in the world you pick Trestles. :roll: Surfed pipe, sunset, g-land, one palm, cloudbreak and restaraunt. Jimmy went quiet pretty quick there hahaha Not quiet just haven't checked in today.. I guess w...

Re: Hurley Pro

I'm with you braithy. Trestles featured so heavily in the surf movies we saw back in the 60's I would love to surf there with just 4 out. Besides, I regularly get my local with 4 out. 8) Yeah I know Trev ... Like fong said, I'm living in the past. Which I admit, I tend to do. But, I can't see the p...

Re: Hurley Pro

It's not about being hardcore ... I could care less about that shit nowadays. It was just a comment to surf anywhere in the world on a great day with four others out, I'd go there. Just a completely hypothetical situation, fongy. :) Having worked in surf media, I've been pretty blessed to paw over p...

Re: Hurley Pro

Anyone surfed that place? Fark it looks fun. Although I guess the crowds would make Manly look like a secret spot. Nup ... but I'd trade any of the others I've surfed to have that place with four out. Looks like a playground. Even when it's maxing out, it has a fun element to it. Might be the wave ...

Re: Hurley Pro

From my loose understanding of the scoring ... The reason we see higher scores towards the end of a heat, is:

If Slater nails a 10 on his first wave of a heat, and he's next wave is better, where do you go from there?

Re: Hurley Pro

My two cents is ... Kelly's biggest obstacle on being world champ at 45 or with 13 titles or whatever is losing interest.

I'd never get sick of watching him surf, so I hope he's still doing this in 5 years time.

Re: Hurley Pro

I think Kelly gets a bit of a bad rap about the overscoring bit because he surfs so damn effortlessly. Other guys put everything into turns that Kelly is fairly ho-hum about.

But Kelly is clutch and methodical at the most critical time in an heat. He's like a fcuking SAS sniper.

Yes.

From the little bits I've seen it's Kelly and O, then alotta daylight to the Micks & Joels & Jordys.

Kerr has been outsurfing Mick and Joel, imo.

Re: Hurley Pro

Slater verse Owen final ... again. That surely has never happened before, huh? Same two guys in three consecutive finals? Not in the post-'91 era. AI and KS went two in a row a couple of times but no triple header. **** I should have gone to Lowers, nobody's writing anything good from there, the we...

Re: Volume question

I'm so keen to shape my own blank. The bottom shape scares me a little though. Getting a single into a double concave hast to be hard, doesn't it? I remember back when I was a grom, I did ding repairs out of a mates shaping bay. Lost count of the guys who got pissed off at me because when I'd do a f...
