I think the young brigade has finally taken over this year.

Whilst Parko, for sheer style is deff my fave to watch in asp, the older KS get the more I find myself rooting for him... maybe its because it gives this old baldy hope

Cannae wait for Jbay though, that place is the 5hit!!! yew!

Yes GM is in the hot seat - Sparten has already used his two throw-aways which leaves him no room for error. Slater has not even won yet and he is just behind.

Personally i think he looks stuffed, or just not concentrating. Something defiantly looks wrong IMHO. His constancy of well off

2 days to J Bay and the forecast is looking sweet for the first day.....

lets hope they do not get skunked again !! I can not wait for this comp - one of my favs - as the boys get to surf a real wave - lots of turns, hollow sections, speed runs, linking sections and sharks - it has it all

8 hour time difference so some afternoon/ evening viewing to be had

Top four in no particular order ;

Parko
Mick
Kelly
Jordy

I like the fact that he throws little seeds of doubt out there for them all to chew on...the Spartan no good in cold water...Gabby never been to J Bay...he plays a tough mental game

Yeah and he reminds them of their two low placed finishes Not to mention the runs he has on the boards for the next few events. Having said that i think he may be done I really would be happy to see one of our boys get back up, like MF or Parko..Lets hope it runs shortly

Edit: actually thinking back to MF's book and his memories from J Bay id say he is my sentimental favourite..

Yep double over head..There goes the rest of my days work

Perfect timing for me....its knock off time...Fanny just smoked those blokes...Dion Atkinson was riding a **** board I reckon looked way to small and no projection out of his turns

Missing this and not home for 90 mins - not fair !

Its kinda interesting (but totally understandable) the guys looking slightly stuffed paddling back out..Dion was even resting his arms on the paddle a couple of times

It seeks the word of the day is "squirly"

omg how much fun does it look. I can not wait to get there one day soon

Faaaarking pumping! Yeeeew!!!
