James Casey was ripping at Sunset today.
Highest scoring wave and heat score of the day.
Check his waves out at 3:22, 3:27, and 3:37 mark
Watched it at Windsurfnsnow with Sam & John, he was killing it. Just so far above the rest. To have Kainoa McGee say that's how sup surfing should be done is a huge compliment!!
Great stuff James, setting it all up with some well timed fades and big strong bottom turns.
Impressed by Kai Bates last wave in the next heat. Pity though the previous 15 minutes of from the shore fotage was nearly all Lecco including long scenes of him paddling out. Typical of the favouritism that plagues competition????
Regardless, the commentary was fun!
Have to concur with comments above - best rail to rail surfing I've seen (possibly ever) on a SUP - Kai Lenny was matching him off the top but James came off the bottom with a radical smoothness and conviction rarely seen on a SUP - the board looked like a peach. I went to the JP website to see which model it was - JP don't do quads so I guess its either custom or proto....
Great to see the Aussies like James and Kai.ripping.
One question though: who in the heck is RORY CHAPMAN???? Comp draw says he is from AUS.
Tried searching his name here, but nothing came up. Doesn't he have friends!
Nice video......I was thinking "this vid is 4 minutes and 57 seconds long......but nah! I was way out in my estimations 
Big effort and a huge congrats on taking it to them coming 2nd overall
Stella effort
Big things to come I just hope they get some size at other events as he shines in bigger conditions
Awesome..some real skills on show. Not too hard a wave when it like this imo. I would give it a go.
I would love to see a min volume introduced for everyone. 110L or there abouts…. and it would be like what lots of us surf.
are you trying to kill the sport.
Love watching this over and over even picked up some tips is there a next instalment

It is just an opinion...
These guys sink if they stop paddling..and have to sit down and wait. It becomes short board surfing with a paddle.

I liked watching it and could appreciate the skill and power some showed using the paddle to Good effect, the stuff I don't like is when they catch the wave and basically put the paddle away now that's silly. Should not compare it too prone surfing anyway completely different and a different skill set I reckon, just as long boarding is to short.
