Re: Rio Pro 2017 - Saquarema
apart from Brazil usually being the shittest stop on Tour I can't seem to fit it into my sleep/wake cycle.
I get up early , it's finished.
anything worth going over the heat analyser for Foamy?

Steve, I didn't watch much. I'm away from home without oodles of internet.
This 2 minute highlight reel is decent viewing.

I enjoy Pete Mel's commentary
Who would hold an event at this joint, look at the backwash

Re: Rio Pro 2017 - Saquarema
felipe looks right at home in these waves, everybody else looks like woody from toy story. but i wish they took more pictures of these events, seems like these days it's all just videos.

Re: Rio Pro 2017 - Saquarema
well sadly the fabulous and unmatchable Kirsten Scholtz stepped aside at the end of 2016, I think maybe because she was tipped off to the belt tightening that was about to occur at WSL HQ, and since then they've been making deals with various lens people who happen to be on site at the events (like Sherm at Bells)
But without Kirsten, they got nothing.

I understand the commercial realities, but honestly, it looks a bit shit.
The highlights package from day 2 was shameful.
