Ellis Ericson has that smooth seventies throw back style. Great to watch. None of the kooky antics ala Knost

Most of the Aussie log stylists manage it with less fanfare than Big Al.

Now that they live broadcast thru NeuLion and not Youtube, I think part of that is to lock down live streaming access to be only thru the WSL site.
Might be some high tech way around it, but it would be a fight.

Also they say,
As a first step, please clear your browser's Cache and Cookies.
If the problem continues to persist it could be due to ad blockers. If you have enabled content filters or ad blockers of any sort then it's probable that the live stream will be blocked in error. Turning off these functions may resolve the issue.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

You inspired me to have another look.
Yep. Awesome waves.
Then I realised they're showing last year replays.
The live stuff is weird - overcast, lumpy, can't see the horizon sort of stuff and waves closing down.
I think the scores reflect the "quality" of the waves. :D:

I thought the same, but it did pick up for heat 7 (Medina/Christie) and then went to crap again.

That's the best round three draw in a while.

Some great heats.

This week they've popped twice in the water. Once after coming off awkwardly underwater and once kicking out flicking the nose up and over a foam section on my backhand in order to go straight onto my stomach. Board kicks up almost vert, front knee almost touches nose, ankle momentarily pops out, ride over the foam and land on stomach as ankle pops back. It's happened about three or four times this winter.
I have the same problem exactly.
To the point I can be walking on a grass footpath and a slight depression in the ground will cause it.
