The left was an overscore by about a point. No quibble with the 10

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.

The left should have been scored less for the massive poo stance before the air.

Gab's 9.43.
Hard to know how many points that aerial is worth in the context.
If there was no aerial and the wave chose not to spit, it was possibly a 6.5. The barrel was not particularly long and he was never deep.

Agreed ... and I'm a big fan of the girls tour, but thats not helping anyone.

A legends heat would have been the better option.

It's just the wrong moment. You've got these incredible surfers smashing Pipe and Backdoor, world title on the line etc etc...then a dead heat with two QS level girls, being guided in the lineup by older male coaches.
