The OC
Can Ethan and Cola perform well in Tahiti? They both seem like they could dominate J-Bay.

Yes, I'd say so. See 2019 against Media at low tide! Griff was taking off on some nutty waves. Was a fairly close heat.


As well the R32 heat.

ok, would you wear this, in the water or out? my Brazzo BIL always picks up a Rio Pro contest t-shirt for me (which unfortunately never quite fits right coz Brazzo sizes just don't quite fit me, but it's a nice thing for him to do). this year, he was kind enough to pick up a contest rash guard for me as well, which just came to me and i really appreciate the thought....but would i wear it? when i look in the mirror, i get the same cringey feeling that i get when i see a middle-aged guy wearing a Tom Brady Jersey...:oops:

edit: actually, this is worse than the football analogy - at least the middle-aged guy in the Tom Brady Jersey isn't actually trying to play football in it.:foreheadslap:

No and no.
But a cool keepsake.
i concur. it actually reminds me of a Dick Butkis (#51, Chicago Bears db) jersey i got for Christmas when i was a kid, about 50 years ago - same colors. i was 12 y/o and i wore it out but that was a long long long time ago. the child is grown, the dream is gone, etc etc :waving:
