The Surf instructor: Always stoked and full of Yeowwwww's and shaka's, fuck off!! surfing's a series of heartbreaking letdowns offset by the odd good surf. The middle aged comp head: Failed as a junior and in the open divisions, hits middle age and now that all the good guys have burnt out or retire...

Re: Ask Carroll

I will shut the fcuk up about this I promise. BUt the board test/bible was trumpeted as a summer board range test and then they tested them in perfect waves-moreorless- in the Telos........about as far from typical summer conditions as you can get. Here's Hog riding a board being spruiked as a go-t...

Re: Ask Carroll

Nick would you give Lewis a job and post his Power Rankings on ASL... It's not my deal. SL's editor Wade Davis is the one making that sorta call. But if I were editor of a site or mag in charge of deep dish coverage of the pro tour I'd definitely give Lewis a gig. It might not be one he was keen to...

Re: Ask Carroll

Oh yeah further to the Lewis thing, it appears that a number of surfers were really pissed off with it, some because of what was contained in this PR and some because they have long memories of being bagged by Lewis in the past. According to one of them, he sent ASP CEO guy Paul Speaker an angry em...

Re: Ask Carroll

by the way, Lewis says he can't comment, adding "I wish I could" and no reply as yet from the ASP. Wow, the unreleased part 2 of his power ranking must have been explosive. Maybe he put Slater in 10th position and called him a has-been? He should just start up a blog again... tag it on to MarineLay...

Re: Ask Carroll

Hmm it might reflect Kelly's influence. ZoSea want the ASP website to become a go to and some strong editorial content is one way to help that happen, and KS is a fan of Lewis's. And anyone who reckons ZoSea is operating without advice and co operation from Kelly is a little bit retarded methinks. ...

Re: Ask Carroll

Nick. What are your thoughts on Lewis Samuels' power rankings on the ASP website? Not the rankings as such as they are typical LS.. But more the inclusion of them on the site? Total surprise and very clever, first time I have entered the ASP site in years, even more clever that I have to return nex...

Re: Ask Carroll

Hello Nic I like this thread, its a job for a true taskmaster alright. Ignore me if this question has been covered. How to you perceive the judging of world tour events to change... I mean judges hearing what scores are needed is archaic!! and at that level is a head-judge even needed? What changes...
