Those airs by Toledo were dogshit compared to the highly technical methods Julian Wilson gets low 8s for.
They had amplitude and he some rode smoothly out of terrible landings, but it was like they threw him a bone for NOT​ doing another fcuking air reverse.

JJF got overscored too.

Yeah, but when are 80% of the commentary team going to get her name right?
Conlogue, I imagine it's pronounced Con-log. But most say Con-er-log. ER?
Holy cheeses, can't they at least pronounce her name correctly?

just went and watched the heat analyser.

I counted 10 wickwack spaz out half turns from Filipe before he did his first turn. The airs were nice but by god the flow was diabolical and that is part of the criteria.

Not live he wasn't.

Round one's such a hoax. About a third of the guys really try, but most of them are gonna lose anyway. The best guys either put together a super sharp pro heat (like Kolohe did) or just tend to throw a coupla things at a coupla waves just to see if they'll stick then go from there. If you scrape a 10 from the judges in this round, you're doomed.

I will take your word for it, Nick. Ever since I watched that Air Comp at Bondi and then saw what it looked like on TV Ive had the impression there's a bit of a gap.
