And that's the problem.
He's not an a-hole. Winners tend to be a-holes.
Guy doesn't even know my name but we sometimes cross paths at a few different spots and he always says hello.
Welcome to the life of King Nicol. He's not joking.

If you've ever had the misfortune of sharing the water with him and Yadin you'll know they're some of the most arrogant, entitled barneys you'll ever encounter.
It's no surprise considering how Yadin raised him like a king.
He should take his family back to OZ already.
On a big south last year when Lowers was coming close breaking into Middles I was highlining into the second half of the wave as it stood up...all the sudden Yadin pops into the picture and shoves his daughter into the wave right in front of me. Who would take that sort of risk? He's a goon.
FixedYeah, I don’t know about traveling with Wardo. With Chloe, at least you know he isn’t going to fuck or punch your chick, want to fight you, or drink all your beer.
I haven't been in the water with him since he's had kids, but he was always super cool the few times I've been out with him at Creek. He went out of his way to say "nice chatting with you" once when I was at the snack shack with my wife, but then again; my wife is hot...nevermind, f^cking barney!
Probably for a different thread but I’ve ran into the same thing with Cory Lopez and his kids. I’ve been going down the line and next thing I see is Cory shoving a 25lb child right in front of me. Nuts
Haha a little bit of an exaggeration. But probably only 4-5 years old. Although my son is at 25lb and just turning one Lol
I was kind just thinking the same thing.
I watched ward stories (at the suggestion of sharky - and that video is pretty freakin awesome) and lo and behold, it’s Dino Andino talking about how in “10 years or 20 years no one is going to talk about the blue collar surfer that is predictable and a good athlete, good talent that works hard” but people like wardo that are charasmatic and unpredictable will still be talked about. “No one remembers you if youre a plain Jane.”
Not really saying Kolohe is a plain Jane, but hes not a wardo.
ps. After watching the video I think I’d still rather travel with wardo than kolohe
He sounds sooo gnarly. Haha. Burgers interview had me dying. time stamp 2:53:40
Andino surfed a good heat, but Ian and Wicox had better heats. I was honestly rooting for Chloe.
But his glaring at the judge's tower, waving his arms, and poor body language, didn't inspire me to buy some 2% gear. YMMV

Chloe got cooked in that heat.
Should have easily got second place.

Big corpo surf judges just don’t get it. Back to an artist’s life for him!

Look at the joy in Ian Gouveia’s face when he was signaling to kolohe his last wave (and last chance) was too small.
I hope this doesn't affect the company. My 2024 goal is to have my 2 percent hat signed by chloe
or my pepis, I haven't decided
I read that Chloe gets $180k annually from Red Bull, which is only $2k more than Molly "Pickles" Picklum. In comparison, Griffin Colapinto gets $563k, Carissa Moore $599k and Caity Simmers $541k. Interesting that Kanoa and JOB make the same annually, $380k. Who drinks Red Bull? I think I had a handful in my entire life and those were with vodka in the early aughts.
Side note, got damn! the girls rip nowadays. I'm watching the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro (Challenger Series) and in really fun looking Snapper, it's crazy how much better women have gotten in the last few years.
