I think style wise, Griffin Colopinto is closer to Parko than Conner.
Conner reminds me of a haole Sunny Garcia.

I’ve had boards shaped by Al.I don't disagree, but the point I was trying to make was that while many of the ghost shapers for JS and CI are top shapers in their own right, none of them are neither JS or AM, and that's what matters. So JS is his new shaper now, some would say top of the line too.
I have so many friends that have been team CI. They always freaked out when AM shaped their board, probably gave them a bit of physcological mental edge, as compared to one of the other ghost shapers shapes.
It's just a contract after all, probably doesn't last more than a couple years. So maybe it is a bit about $$ too?
I'm a bit skeptical about some sort of equity in a board building company, though, that's just stupidness!
With CI in his backyard, he'll be back guaranteed, especially after he's off the CT!
Good call. Griffin's got great style. Near the top for me. Plus he's got an air game.I think style wise, Griffin Colopinto is closer to Parko than Conner.

I feel like Sunny and Conner both have a little bit of that stink bug style. With Conner it's less prevalent, but subtly there. Like their center of gravity is a bit lower...... in their glutes and hamstrings.Good call. Griffin's got great style. Near the top for me. Plus he's got an air game.
Haole Sunny Garcia might be a little harsh. I think Conner has a more relaxed approach. Maybe I'm misremembering, I should go watch some old footage, but I feel like Sunny had a bit more of a stiff, brutish approach.
Haha, that kid is gonna shattered careers.Conner has 2 more years before Dorian overwhelms -
It seems possible. Are we taking it as a given that he is a competitive beast thought? He might have the talent but does he have that hunger? With his profile and sponsors he could easily take the freesurfer path and probably live a pretty comfortable life without having to grind the contest circuit.Haha, that kid is gonna shattered careers.
Reminds me of Medina in France as a grom, but 10x better.

I kinda think his dad was an underachiever as far as contest surfing was concerned, given the amount of talent he had. Not that the Jackson is destined for the same but I don't get the impression that his dad is much of a Charlie if you know what I mean.
Imagine a 14yo Gabriel at Waco for a few days. Jeebus!Haha, that kid is gonna shattered careers.

Hah, sh!t I'm probably way off as always.I have heard horror stories about Papa Dorian already
I'm up for a good surf dad story.I have heard horror stories about Papa Dorian already
