Mikey Wright scored a wildcard. Might do some damage.

Friday is looking big: 5.5m @ 16s, 14,000kJ, cross off.

14,000kJ? That's gotta be 20'+ faces

Surf Forecast is giving it 8/10. Rare call - in fact, for a few years I though that site ranked the surf from 1-5

I’ll be dropping everything to watch this heat. Hopefully the web coverage won’t be wonky and dropping out all the time.

Swells not getting in there and the winds are wrong. Massive Margarets is a sight to see though, the left can be pretty fierce, god knows what the right will look like... death on a stick?

JJF (currently ranked 26 on the tour)is going to wonder how that that heat got set up.
