I think Steve has a guest spot. They were going to hold a whole bunch of TED talks in Byron. But the organisers just went fuck it. Why do we need all of these experts that we need to fly in. When we can just move it down the road and get Teddy Shearer to speak about every topic?
No brainer and you’ve got Bugs and Shaun in the room.
Nick’s probably coming up for it because he hasn’t instructed Phil to shape him his next 46 channel. 4’9 single fin.

I had a go at watching the Log comp.
Shannon's grating nails on chalkboard voice meant I could only get through 3 rides.

The English commentator speaks too fast and uses too many words. It’s a bit tiring to listen to and seems incongruous with the whole longboarding at Malibu vibe. He’s got some cred though.

Harrison Roach World Champ. Great stuff.
Wow, last crossover ride with both surfers.
Won’t see better longboarding than that.

Way too much analysis and not enough funny unrelated anecdotes. Definitely way too few strained analogies as well. This is the problem with getting literate people to do sports commentary.
