Yesterday at the comp the beach was jam packed with alsorts,some good and some, not so good! During a heat Aussie vs Brazil,the Aussie fell off towards the end of his heat,he needed a huge score to overtake the brazilian!The Brazilians behind me on the beach cheered to my horror,I turned around and gave them the look [}:)] and noticed I wasn't the only one to vent! Poor sportsmanship!

Fair enough. If you pay your money you can yell scream boo shout jump throw your hat on the ground and cry what ever takes your fancy i rekon.

Better to have a crowd on the beach getting into it, than having comps on outer reefs in exotic locations with no-one watching.

your post does not make sense....

whats wrong with the brazillians cheering..?

exactly how does it equate to poor sportmanship...?

because they don't cheer for the same team as you...?

doc,to answer your questions

nothing wrong with brazillians cheering

wrong time to cheer,you don't cheer when
someone falls

cheer for any team you like,but not at the
expense of others

its part of the show

they weren't cheering because he got eaten by a shark

they were cheering because of the drama

you cheer when the opposing side fumbles the ball and your team takes advantage of the situation to score a try or a goal or what not don't you...?

really, whats the difference...?

OK I submit,after thinking long and hard,I have changed my view
They got carried away in the show as I would have!
