Slow heat. Watched for 10 minutes to see Jordy get one wave.

How did Wilko lose that heat? He was better on every level.
There's gotta be some sort of ruling on air reverses, if they aren't stratospheric and landed cleanly you lose points.

Fcuken hell how's Italo and Filipe throwing waves at each other? I love it when they're in the same heat!

Looks fun. Can’t wait to see the goofy Brazillian dwarf tear into it.

Do the commentators face having their wages docked if they say "surfers" instead of "athletes"? It is a bit grating.

Italo just on one of those rolls. Can do no wrong. Freakish.

Well I sure hope some of the tour journalism gives a tiny bit of credit to Timmy Patterson’s design work for Italo, Timmy’s gun barrel concave/flat exits are giving that kid the acceleration his style demands. They had some to do with his Bells win and they had some more to do with this one.

Timmy Patterson did describe Italo's Bells winning board.

“The victory board was his F-15 Italo Ferreira pro model
5'11 x 18.50 x 2.25 and 26 Liters in volume, round pin tail with Future tri fin set up. Board was P.U foam and glassed with poly resin.”
