Who in the hell is the contest director? Yeah, let's run 4 heats of the mens round 2... realize the waves are crap and then put on the women.

Fvcking amateurs.




not really. snappers is more of a low tide wave. run the women at high tide. they've got to get those heats in. then when the tide drops run the men's heats

all I'm saying is either run the guys or run the girls...

If the contest director feels that the waves are contestable... run as many heats that day as you can. Whether your heat falls on low or high tide is the luck of the draw...make your decision and stick with it. Don't start breaking rounds up and start switching to the Roxy or vice versa.

Yep, Kolohe's one big air had tons of loft, but Simpson surfed with more power, style and Dane type abandon.

ka while a total ripper....is without def an industry lvoe child. simpson....ill say this....his surfing in personlooks a thousand times more impressive than on screen. i wasnt a fan of those airs by either though. is anyone on tour working or regulalry using airs that arent of the throw it up in the air and see how far i spin in the soup variety? im tired of watching guys bring it back aroundin the soup....its getting reallly reallly old. woudl rather see a big plain functional boost going big...or even see someone start tweakiing the tail in the air andbringing it back around before they hit hte soup.

Thought Perrow got way underscored in that last heat. Its as if the judges have a popularity list on who gets pushed through and who loses.
