Not that excited about the remaining rd 2 matchups.
I'm in favour of crabmeat's cull.

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

I don't think anyone noticed really. Kelly came in well up the point and the event was concentrating on the heat. He was off the beach in five minutes. I guess eventually the news trickled back to the event site and they got on it.

Better lines than most of them draw on their thrusters.
by "better" I suspect you mean more relatable.

J-Bay is a simple sorta wave in some ways but it is a bit of a conundrum for the judging system, hell we have been here before, not re-hashing that one. But the normal question asked of CT pros, i.e. how vertical can you turn and still make the wave, needs to be re-phrased a little bit for this joint. That's what's cool about JJF, he is surfing the way the wave likes you to surf, i.e. a bit laterally in the turn angle like God points out, but he is still surfing extremely close to the lip and pulling full phase turns from there. Carrying the panel a bit toward something again.
No, I don't surf like that.
I'm flattered, but I meant better.
Subjectively, aesthetically, (perhaps) not technically.
I actually prefer the way Steph Gilmore surfs to most of the male pros. Of the men I like the way Seabass surfs.

I am not Brazilian but I think one word that could be used is: Reivindicando

How was the "suck this" claim from Kelly on Rd 1 when he came out of the "impossibles barrell" though ?
