Some better looking waves this morning... www.worldsurfleague.com/events/2015/mct/1222/rip-curl-pro-bells-beach
I thought Slater was ripped off. Especially after watching the way the judges then scored the Fanning heat. ![]()
Anyone catch the Medina/Slater heat?
7.17 for three average snaps on a small wave?
I agree. The commentators were talking up that wave like no tomorrow. I thought it was pretty average myself. The little floater was hardly a breathtaking difficult move - just functional whilst his end backhand reo was not that flash or extravagant either. Then he did a small claim / fist pump - seems he owes the Jar $300.
Crap again today - that blocking high sucks
Ahhh the long range forecast....Thursday Friday early look like they might be OK....my advice for winter on the surf coast is weather reports are only good for 3 hrs after time of issue

Some of the scoring is terrible... Owen wrights heat yesterday was a cluster **** of poor judging..
Is there any reason that Peter Mel sits on a board for these water based interviews? Are they saving money? Surely he could just be on a jetski - they use one to video him whilst talking anyway.

It adds authenticity bro...sheesh...I would prefer to see Rosy Hodge out there in a bikini...she frightens and excites me equal measure
How much listening would you do under that scenario? ![]()
I'm an active listener bro...my whole body gets involved
Looking like some contestable waves at long last for the big boys n girls to showcase their skill sets in. hope the winds are favourable for the duration

He was insane in that heat - looked like he was really enjoying himself. Not sure why - it looked scary to me with all those steps in the wave face ![]()

Josh Kerr made the news thanks to this:

"I knew I needed to score so I tried to arm bar, like, put the pie in the oven, get nice and deep, but then you do that first section of The Box and the second section drops out underneath you and I didn't handle that very well ... " ![]()
Kiwi giant killer !!!!! Was very nervous watching that last wave of Felipe's in the final seconds. Yuck.
Seems like the only way a Brazzo will win is if there are 2 of them surfing in a heat
I enjoyed watching M Pupo yesterday. They were struggling to work out were to sit, he really had to throw himself of the ledge at mains and he did it. Parko looked the most comfortable though IMHO![]()
Agree Parko looked the best by far at Mainbreak. Not sure what board he was riding however I have heard has packed a 8'6.
