Too perfect(Keramas) IMHO, my favorite viewing is either challenging hard breaking reefs or sizey beachbreak.

They had a sick Search event at El Gringo in Arica. Choobs. Andy Irons went out, posted two high 9s in like 12 minutes, went in, and walking up to the competitor's area, starts sounding the judges: "This is too cold. What the f--k are we doing here."
I think it might have been Adriano I'm not sure but someone got broke the fkkoff proper, like stabilize the spine and load into the Amber Lamps type sh!t.
Maybe no one.
That’s my point. Some years will have a finals day, other years won’t if someone runs away with it earlier.
The judges weren’t responsible for him being cold. He should have unloaded on his wetsuit sponsor.
You almost have to admire the way the WSL tunes out all advice and criticism and just plows straight ahead with its poorly constructed tour. They learn nothing and never try to improve, relying only on blind luck that the swell window lines up, which it sometimes does but more often does not.
We're not the target audience and our approval is not the target metric. I also think this is just a temporary hobby for Ziff and he's going to get bored and move onto other things.
Someone needs to take pro surfing out behind the shed and put it down. The upcoming crop of groms needs a reality check - things have a beginning, a middle, and an end.
It's gotta be the time zone.
Potentially a lot fewer viewers when it's the middle of the night on the West Coast.
J Bay out because no tourist board $ to finance it. Same reason El Sal is in.
He's from Kauai. I'm guessing El Gringo when they were there the water and air were mid-50s and it was cloudy almost the whole time and some of the competitors just don't surf bootie water basically ever.
They are actually pretty close with this iteration.
Get J-Bay back in and swap Trestles and Cloudbreak around.
A Finals Day in 8-10ft Cloudbreak would be the best thing ever seen in Pro Surfing, especially with JJF and Medina, Robinson in the 5. We'd see a whole new level of surfing.
Job done.

Who cares? It’s as even a playing field as surfing allows. How could you want a champ who can’t surf lowers? That’s 10x worse than not being able to surf heaving Chopes. Like I said, they need to move it around, but I’m not discounting 2 titles by the guy who has clearly been the best overall surfer on tour for the past 2 years.I sincerely hope you are kidding. The only thing challenging about Lowers is the crowd. I have an idea........On finals day the competitors have to go out and scrap with the regular crowd at Lowers during their heats. Make negotiating the crowd part of the judging criterion.I love Lowers but that being said it is not appropriate to crown a world champ there with the current format.
im also enjoying all the cry is free over the removal of Jay by the “Filipe dsucks.” crew. Switching in Fiji will certainly ruin his chances at another final 5!
Before it became a Tennis Tour they used to hold an event there. I like it as a tour stop but it too is not suitable for a single day event to decide a champion under the current format.Grommy: What about Mundaka
Level playing field. The judges didn’t select the venue. He was getting paid by his wetsuit sponsor to surf. Blame Billybong. I bet he didn’t have anything to say to them.
