I agree with the quarterfinals, however:
It will be Kelly over Bobby
Jordy will beat Taj and Joel will beat Kelly
Joel will take Taj at the finals.

Picking winners is a fools game…they all surf good and any of ’em can win. The winner will be the one who get’s the best waves.

Not being immune to foolishness, I’ll take Mick.

Shamus McRearload

I am going to go out on a limb and predict the winner to be the one who gets the best waves and rips the hardest.

But that’s just me.

The judges usually feel otherwise.

8 04 2010
Global cooling

Is a sport that determines it’s winners by judges really a sport? Is figure skating a sport?

Or put differently, does a governing body (ASP) that has it’s best (arguable) athlete (Dane) losing in round 4 to an athlete of half his ability, have any hope of thriving?

8 04 2010
since you've nothing else to read

Ditto Nick Carrol above; this idiotic bashing of Mick is just that. Nobody surfed his equal the other day. For people who are sane, surfing without error is a good thing. And that done with speed, flow, style, rail, with the best air of the contest to boot.

So the question for me is, “was Dusty Payne robbed?” I don’t really like Payne’s surfing so much and so was pulling for Kelly, yet that heat raises some questions for me. Nobody I think argues Payne’s first wave score of 9.17 but contention could be found in the scoring of his second wave. He did the same clean reverse on the face of a smaller wave that he did on the 9.17. yet was only given a 4.98 for it. Was this an underscore? Kelly’s lower scored seven had nothing progressive in it, just standard clean, precise hits and floats. Typical Kelly surfing that few others can match. The judges thought that was worth more than Dusty’s second scoring wave. Were they right?

The only real difference between the two was the size of the wave. Was the low score due to the fact that it was the exact same maneuver as his first wave? Judges demand variety perhaps? If that’s the case is that spelled out in the ASP rule book?

Also, it appears from this heat and other video I’ve seen of Payne, that he has that trick in his ‘back pocket” and can pull it out whenever he wants. In theory, he could pull it out in every heat and get a score for it. Should he be able to? The trick is very progressive but is that what we want to be seeing from him in every heat? Who wins in a heat where Payne does that and Mick surfs fast powerful and covers alot of distance (as he always does). It’s all subjective as far as I can tell.

8 04 2010
Peter Perfect

You’re right in calling it a ‘trick’ and not a maneuver. It’s ugly. I’m all for progressive moves, but they look best when the surfer does them seamlessly. Dusty rarely does. Jordy makes it look seamless so often.
Dusty’s two waves? First overscored by 2, second underscored by 1.

Classic Randomrandomness…. What the guys (Dave M) don’t understand is that Marriage is THE biggest business contract they will ever sign…. once?

Glad to see Global Cooling is so desperate to make his point, pulling a bagel and reposting.

Well, well, well, Mr Nugable finally gets it right…. I had Taj over Bede before the contest.

But as it was so eloquently stated above, who the fuck knows what the judges are doing anyway. Anything can and will happen.

As for Dane losing…. remember the Patriots (17-0) lost to the Giants who sneaked in as wildcards. That’s why they play the games….

Peter Perfect, 12:23. Right on.

During my Mick Fannticide rant yesterday (sorry to Jelly on Bagel for the “do you really surf?”comment; just didn’t get not liking Mick) I was initially planning on commenting, too, on the Dusty maneuver.

Salvaging a mistake shouldn’t score more than the same trick done precisely. Yesterday’s Surfline (Laird, forgive me) feature on the Winki action brought that again to my attention. Pat G’s similar turn, for example, was devoid of hype because he didn’t nearly lose his board. Like PP said, had someone like Jordy done it cleanly and fluidly, linking it into another turn, the Machine wouldn’t have hyperventilated so.

8 04 2010
Peter Perfect

Amen, brother.

@Dante

Let’s say me and my only friend left in the world, PeterPerfect, decided that since we both were wholly into the same autoerotic asphyxiation fetish, we should go into business together selling various fetish accessories. We pool our money together, buy a storefront in West Hollywood, fill the shop with various and sundry deviant delectable’s and begin our business relationship.

After a few successful years, we take some of our profit and purchase a double-wide and an 84 Datsun for our mutual enjoyment. Things are splendid.

Unfortunately, somewhere along the way, PeterPerfect decides he is no longer into the same fetishes we once shared, and decides he wants to be freed from our business relationship so he can start his own snuff-porn website. I am saddened to learn of this development.

After numerous arguments and hostile visits to the courthouse, a random judge awards PeterPerfect half of our money, AND the double wide, AND the Datsun. Why? Because he’s the woman in this relationship, obviously.

Does that seem fair?

Hell no!!

I am now going to hang myself in my closet whilst tickling my nethers gently with a peacock feather.

Peter Perfect

And people think these comments are gay. How dare they! Nick Carroll, I’m looking at you!
I’m boozed up and ready to go. Have another five bottles of three euro red wine on standby. Told the girlfriend what to expect. Her finding me snoring prone on the couch, my head propped up by an ailing forearm, with Mick tapping the lip of Winki repeatedly actually garnered some sympathy.
“That’s the world champion?”, she inquired innocently. What happened to the pock-marked bald guy who used to make love to Pamela Anderson?”.
“Oh my sweet”, I replied, “no one ‘makes love’ to Pamela Anderson’, they fuck her Hep C ass off! “Let me show you what I mean”.
Enoch and Nick, if you’re so terribly good-looking, then why do you sleep alone tonight?

Glad you read the post twice Mikey; you’d do well to take in more such cogent thoughts and and less of your own THC induced musings. 🙂

Comparing a football game to a heat is apples and oranges. Dane wasn’t beaten by any superior opponent or even an uncharactaristic performance by Roy in the heat. No, one wave that was a bit bigger and longer than the others happened to be caught by Roy who promptly less than “slayed” it, and was awarded a 8 for the effort. Dane goes back to Ventura, Roy loses his next heat, and the ASP wonders why pro surfing doesn’t have more appeal.

8 04 2010
Jamon Bagel

Everyone knows that people who repost their own comments are assholes.

And also, Fanndroid truly is the Damien Hardman of his day. Fast, clean, precise and competent. The very nice air at Bells is the exception that proves the rule…you always know what you are going to get with Mick. You can close your eyes and imagine it as it’s happening…speed pump, big smooth bottom/top arc, throw in a cutty or a mild tail blow. But NEVER a mind blow. And very few real risks.

Is Fanndroid one of the best surfers in the world. Yes. Emphatically. Moreso in good surf. Would I rather watch him than a convulsing Brazilian who can spin his board around while flapping his head and arms? Yeah.

BUT…

I watch surfing to be inspired. I want creativity and risk taking. I could watch Marzo and Reynolds all day and never be completely sure what I am going to see next. If you can translate that to contests, so much the better. I would rather watch Jordy and his offset nipples fly over two sections and take donuts than see yet another precise, scripted Fanndroid speed run. To me, Reynolds v. Fanning at Trestles 08 was the proof. Man, that was an eye opener, particularly backside on the lefts. On that day, Fanning against Reynolds was like Jordan dropping 63 on Bird in the playoffs.

There is a reason we root for outlaws over sheriffs, and artists over technicians. No disrespect to a very, very good surfer, but I want my World Champion to inspire me. Mick, he just doesn’t do it.

Heh heh. Mike.

and now back to the BT mix

8 04 2010
Perkus Tooth

I can understand the bagel’s point; in a sport where style and tricks are the buzzwords of today, it does chafe a bit at seeing someone like Mick Fanning surfing without all the modern accoutrements and still winning. He’s not as fluid as Parkinson, not as trick-y as Dane&Jordy, nor as powerful as Kelly or Taylor Knox.

HOWEVER, as someone who grew up playing and admiring competitive sports, I enjoy seeing a man who knows how to win and does so in an efficient fashion. Lynn Swann may have been the most graceful wide receiver of all-time, but everyone knows Jerry Rice was the BEST. Allen Iverson had the smoothest crossover in the game, but as a pointguard Tony Parker was BETTER. I could go on, but I’ve covered this topic before…

Bottom line is, Mick may not be the most stylish, most radical, or most powerful. But if you’re not inspired by 2 World Titles, you may be following the wrong sport.

8 04 2010

Sorry I’m late for the party. I was busy having the last word on the ‘All Hail Freddy P’ post. While I was there, I was wondering if NC was taking a stab at Chas Smith, or if he was referencing all the Fanndroid haters on this site? Any opinions? Is NC a closet Nugable reader? Also, Mike, I wasn’t giving props to Sheapez’ Surfer post, I was just throwing it out there since he’s now a semi-regular here and thought his input might be interesting since we haven’t heard from him for awhile. Having said that, I think he might be right (I hope so anyway) that AI is just getting a feel for things again and that his best performances this year are still yet to come. Having said THAT, I don’t think he’ll ever excite us the way he once did. It’s truly about the Jordy and Dane show now.

@JBagel (a.k.a crumbs) – your takes are long winded with a hint of irritation and fraught with error. Cease and desist commenting for the sake of the blog.

As for Mr. Fanning, the only problem I can see people having with him is that for as fast as he goes, he rarely uses that speed to go above the lip. The other day, he did launch a frontside no grab air and it was beautiful thing. He should probably do it more often though, so morons like crumbs won’t go to sleep.

to get married you first have to leave your mom’s basement once in a while and actually get out there and speak with a live female.

my advice to you is to take a 5 day break from spanking your tallywacker as to let the blisters heal. then go to a local bar and get some tramp hammered and talk her into cruising back to your place.

if she says she is on her menstrual cycle then say no problem you are on your moped. she can follow you over there.

8 04 2010
Elwood

I think the real point with Fanndroid that is being missed is the judging and format of the contests. If they are going to score him with 8’s and 9’s for bread and butter surfing… then why would he be stupid enough to try risky moves…. his livelihood is dependent on advancing outa heats. See last contest Round 3 against Simpo…. he waits for a great wave, does some nice big gouges and gets a 9. If that’s all he needs for a 9 than why risk fucking up a good wave. However, It did seem that the judges maybe tightened up on him somewhat in his next heat. Fanning is capable of busting some progressive moves…. he just isn’t gonna push it until he is forced to.

Dusty’s air was controlled anarchy. At first it looks reckless and uncontrolled. Because it is. Similar Bad Brains intro into ‘I Against I.’ But rather than cartwheeling into a cacophonous splash of fail, ala Yngwie Malmsteen – the air is recovered as the rider’s feet become reacquainted with his board and is allowed to progress onto the next section.

I still remember Curren’s sequence in that ancient Search video where he blows the tail out and loses his back foot before regaining control and momentum. Dusty was unable to do this.

Hence, I find Bad Brains to be ear-delicious in small portions.

Jordy’s wave, in which he pulled a standard pop, then a lip bash, then a superman, then another bash was much easier on the senses. Like listening to Sandinista. The net result?

Jordy got a high 9 and Dusty got a low 9. Personally, I think there was more than a mere point of difference between the two waves.

As I think there is more than just a slight difference between Bad Brains and The Clash.

And I am not about to spell check this mu’fucker… so suck it, Perkus.

There is no reasonable explanation for a Rip Curl contest not to have Alana Blanchard in every single commercial they run.

None.

And to maintain viewership, she should wear less and less clothing as the day progresses. She could start the day in a Burka, before slowly devolving toward the ultimate goal; three small pieces of clear tape… since this is a family broadcast and all.

thanks for the advice. I don’t actually live in a basement or with my mother smyrnajeff but i do however live an overly reclusive lifestyle. I am very very ugly and i think i would have to get a bar tramp very very drunk before she would consider me. I sometimes indulge in the odd prostitute and i have been knowen to forge online friendships with strange girls using photos of more handsome men but i never bothered to meet any of them as i’m worried they would be very angry to see they had been shammed. Really i dont have any friends in real life.If it wasnt’for the internet and my reserve of money to pay for hookers i think i would have necked myself by now.

Guys, what did you expect?

Mick Fanning did 224 fading bottom turns to off-the-top combos in a row.

Yet, the commentators always bring up the argument, “yeah but if Dusty does a blow-tail reverse on every wave… isn’t that repetitive? Doesn’t it become easy at some point.”

The argument regarding Fanning was over long ago. He is good. He has NEVER been great. Not once.

Mick is a polished contest surfer who excels within the straight-jacket of the ASP rule book. He deserved his championships, and he deserves it until the ASP changes. He never falls… for a reason. And those that love his surfing are also the biggest proponents of the status quo and the mucky-muck system that’s been spoon feeding the same mediocrity for years.

Wow, Mick is trashed and marginalized by people I like as if he was his era’s Damien Hardman.

Never seen someone so elite so universally trashed. What is Joel, half a second slower and he’s annointed? Is sluggish Andy so much better? Does Mick “tap” hits?

Damien Hardman was a technician with a low performance ceiling. Won two titles without anyone noticing his surfing. It should be Occ’s biggest shame that he allowed Damien, Barton, Derek or POTTER to win a title. Really, how did that play out? Mortifying Occhilupo.

Fanning is no Damien Hardman. I’ll watch the replays and Jordy may have been robbed, but Fanning is no Hardman.

Mike mike mike mike,

In terms of performance relative to his era and his peers, Fanndroid is EXACTLY Damien Hardman. He IS a technician with a low performance ceiling. And it should be Parkos biggest shame that he allowed those titles to happen.

Something tells me we will never agree on this, but Fanning is one hell of a competitor and a very good surfer. Never a great surfer. The end.

Can you explain to me why a marriage is like a business arrangement? My only personal experiences with women have been online or paid for in a brothel.

Before you laugh you should know i am extremly ugly and women are just not interested in me.

Yeah Bobby. Johanna has you nerds sweating your teams eh?

Maybe Rip Curl should concentrate on a good IT team and less on the beer garden. Mobility will be the “excuse”, but this production is poor.

Mark, the definition of “quitting” would require your tired aliases to retire as well, barn. That’s not what I want, it’s what you claimed….. again.

Ok, they interrupt a Kelly ride mid wave and interview Bobby…. no director Rip Curl?

There’s someone for everyone Dante, but the words “I do” equate legally to “accept your worth”. What other business decision to you give 50% of your assets for a promise. Given California statistics, there may be a few women hunting an easy lifestyle. Family courts is a certified nightmare, everyone loses…. and lawyers get paid to settle when the ex couple is vacuumed of resources. It’s called professional collusion or in some books, the legal profession. Parasitic tendencies enflamed by vultures gorging.

After a close semi final heat #2 between Oscillating Volume and Pixelated Picture Quality, it’ll be interesting to see if Buffering… will have an answer for Oscillating Volume’s scintillating form and momentum in the final of the Rip Curl Bells Beach, 2010.

Yeah, mate, but Buffering… has been the in-form annoyance of the contest thus far. He’s been huge!

I resent that comment.Making fun of a socially inept young man in his hour of need is downright cruel.

The gentlemen in this forum seem well versed in many areas of life and there is a lot more to life than just surfing.

I have no offers on the table. After this comp finishes i will leave my dungeon and go to the brothel! A big set of fake tits will cure what ails me.

Maybe i should try trawling through some 3rd world countries and see if i can find some girl so poor and desperate to improve her situation that she might go on a date with me to get herself a free dinner. I have never been on a date before. Unless you count arranging to talk to a girl on msn at 7pm the following day after using photos of julian wilsons head to lure her in.

Mike,

At this point, we just begin to call you folks Mick Apologists. Standing up for the antiquated status quo. To call it boring is redundant. To call it robotic is cliche. To call it workmanlike would be accurate. To call it interesting would break all seven deadly sins.

And you know that.

But you are, after all, the ultimate devil’s advocate.

Not enough Fanning surfing to put me to sleep yet. Why are you so mad at Enoch? He is having fun and making new friends. As in creating them. As in, “My friends are toys. I make them. It’s a hobby.”

As Mark astutely pointed out earlier, we know who you are. And you are making strides in the right direction. Keep working it out, dog. You’re getting there.

I can assure you that I have nothing at all, whatsoever, to do with that thing you speak of.

a 2xWCT champ who whole act is based about being techno perfect- bog a rail first turn then milk it to get a score was bullshit (6.7)
Just enough to win by .03 ?? Weird or straight out bullshit??
Jordy landed air’s,Mick did not even try any.

Then Bobby got robbed (&he won),
His 1st wave was an 4.00, which included an “alllley oop”.It was way better than
Mick’s last wave from a last heat which gotta a 6.7
Bobby will smah these cunts in the lefts.

Slater vs. Mick

Allow me to set the stage.

Mick will do 451 fading bottom turns to lip snaps / slides. They will be ‘lightening quick’ as they say in the cells with padded walls.

Kelly will do a carving 360, and simple air-reverse, followed by a few patented roundhouses with his arms flailing in all directions.

Kelly will win by 2 points.

Mick will be elated that the ‘progressive criteria’ wasn’t implemented in his heat with Jordy.

Chas Smith will copy everything I just wrote.

Done.

What up fellas.

First off, big props to Kelly. Damn. Impressed. What WAS that by the way? One foot circa-Curren ’98 Surfer-Extra whatever? And then the class to give to the local tribe. Only to be topped by a text to Freddy C. Legend. As if a bloke needs to write that. Big props, stay happy, go for 10. Pleeeeease.

Couple comments. First off, lose the fucking jetskis in four foot surf. God fucking dammit that’s lame. Second, get the goddam webcast right. I own Apple’s latest and AT&T’s finest (that’s the best in the U.S. you sons of bitches), and it still doesn’t work right. Good enough though I suppose. Props for that, but not great. And lastly, Mick, you fucking dimwit Aussie, don’t you ever discrace the Jewish race again. Hope you learned your lesson. Ha, relax brother, I know you were drunk.

@Elwood,

First, PP’s shaft is not curved. It is more or less a veiny tic tac. Only smaller.

The flavor resembles Mark McGrath’s throat. Which is odd… yet familiar, I know.

Second, Pele was the greatest athlete ever, and the mere mention of someone greater will put sentence your nuts to the vice-grip of reality faster than you can say Michael Jordan. That vice-grip being my feverish fist.

Third, you are drunk… as am I, so we shall let that abominable comment pass.

Finally, Mick beating Jordy was an embarrassment that should not be left by the wayside. A farce in every way. Mick did not out surf the iguana-nippled one. He merely thanked the judges under the Rip Curl banner for his Rip Curl victory at the Rip Curl Bells Beach Pro.

Jordy merely wandered around on the beach, hoping one of his eyes would focus long enough to lead him to the nearest bar.

I bid you all an adieu.

G’night.

Much talk of Mick’s generous scores against Jordy (all true), but what about the scoring his heat against Taj? He was pushed in that one as well. Taj received a 6.15 for a wave that included a big turn and a decent air that landed in the flats. Whereas Mick’s first wave was an average turn with a nice ending hit. 7.83. Complete joke. At least the right guy won.

The Heats On Demand should show all rides in a given heat… even the ones where the rider falls. Otherwise there is no way to get an accurate feel for a heat.

But alas, that makes way too much sense to be actually implemented.

I remember a contest a year or two ago, that actually had the entire heat on demand. You could go back a few days later and watch all 30 minutes of the heat. I wish I remember which contest it was. That’s getting it right.

Of course, they discontinued that practice… it made too much sense.

9 04 2010
Global cooling

They (whoever’s putting on the contest) normally shows every ride (right?), but Rip Curl figured, “hey since this whole contest has been a cluster, why not continue in that spirit for heats on demand. And even more, we’ll make the final day’s webcast glitchiness second only to Globe’s ’08 Fiji debacle (where instead of high bandwidth satellite transmitters being used, it was decided that to save money, an elaborate system of tin cans and string would suffice).

@Global Cooling,

They rarely show ALL the rides in a heat. They usually show the scoring rides and maybe a couple others, so they can shoe-horn everything into a tidy little two minute highlight with background music by garbage rock bands.

It appeals to the MTV generation that prefers everything in small doses so they don’t have to use their mind any more than necessary than an average four year old would.

I want my Heat On Demand to be that. The entire heat, on demand. Otherwise, just call it a highlight clip. Unless its Neco or Jeremy Flores’ heat, in which case it would just be called the gaylight clip.

“It appeals to the MTV generation that prefers everything in small doses so they don’t have to use their mind any more than necessary than an average four year old would.”

The above is spot on as well as the garbage background music reference; Such crappy music.

For the offense of showing the womens award ceremony while AI and Dane were surfing round one and the horrid last day coverage and the diminished heats on demand on offer, I resolve to never buy a Rip Curl product again (unless there’s like a really good sale going on at the Trestles outlet store).

Then i felt ill and worried i would get fatter so i went to the bathroom and stuck my hand down my throat tell i threw up.
After this ordeal i felt guilty so i cut the inside of my thigh for relief. I would have cut my wrists but after cutting them at the end of fannings victory heats yesterday there was not much room left for a good slash.
I give myself a monthly budget of 1000 dollars a fortnight to spend on prostitutes and i’ve already used it up so for the next 4 days im going to be lonley.

10 04 2010
Peter Perfect

Are you saying Taj was underscored against Fanndroid? It is funny that Kelly ‘drama queen’ Slater is more relevant than Mick with the new criteria, when they bother to apply it…
For someone in the twilight of their career, has their ever been a better twilight athlete than Kelly Slater? Maybe only Lance if he wins the Tour…
or perhaps Tiger when he’s back from his third trip to the rehab facility in 2019.

What about that presentation with the local native savages doing their thing. Fanning’s speech reeked how he said thanks to them for letting them use their land. The ASP and RipCurl probably told him to do that to keep the PC brigade happy after his jew bashing efforts.

What about how Freddy P couldnt say his bit without getting fined by the ASP.
ooooo cant say bad things about the ASP! They try so hard to maintain the cleanest image yet half those dudes are the biggest rompers out ther. They throw the biggest booze-filled after-comp parties full of drunk impressionable little girls they try to take advantage of.

The ASP commentators annoy me too aye. Every wave they talk the surfer up so heavily. Even if they kook the wave they talk them up saying they’re such incredible athletes and surf with amazing power and style and that it was an uncharacteristic mistake. Biggest wank.

Anybody got any ideas for a good board design for a slightly over the hill greybeard? It’s tough to get under 180 lbs, and the standard high performance shortboard just dosen’t work that well for me anymore-especially for getting in on time. Tried a fish before, but-jury was kind of out on that. Wider nose? heavier glass job? thicker rails? Something maybe with the characteristics of a fish but more like a shortboard. Something that will still turn pretty good and be responsive….and still work in pretty decent waves. Somebody please help.

But your last 2 post’s have been truth&actual gold.I almost started to like you.But Now your gone back to bullshit, looking for your next (H) job.Have you been overdosing on team Billabong’s Bi-pola pill stash left over’s from occy,margo,&now andy etc.You make some cents, but only for the next dollar.Just Like everything el$e in this fuckd up world.

Now guess who builds the Bell’s Beach comp site-Aboriginals
They call them the “Bell’s Beach dog’s” and they get to put up their aboriginal flag first(before even rip curl’s) on the comp site.How cools that Mailman,but wait there’s more; rip curl even make there own ‘Bell’s Beach dog’s'(sweat shop) made T-shirts for them to wear for the whole comp(2 weeks straight).Then at the end of the comp they get a double pay day by dancing (without their T-shirts) and painting the new rip curl pro’s champ face.Great to see rip curl helping the community like that.
Mind you,how many aboriginals work at Rip Curl full-time(not many ,if any???)
But 1 months work at the rippy pro will cover that.

But mined you mailman,
Those aboriginals are native to Bells Beach not Johanna(2 hours drive away from Bells),
But their already on the pay roll so it doesn’t really matter,does it?
Just keep the show ROLLING ON

Kelly only gave the Bell to them cos he didn’t want them to steal his car.
and if by chance this was Kelly’s 1st Bell not his 4th-do you really think he would have given it away to the local people??not a fukn chance

Has anything in Australia really changed?
Has anything REALLY changed since 1778 when Captain Cook stole this great land from the Aboriginal people.
FUUUUK NO.IF It isn’t Captain Cook, it’s now Rip Curl.Doing the same shit as what$ has happen for well over 200 years.
The English settler bullshit on a country and local tribe of people not ready to deal with it.
Australia has been seek’d and destory’d more than anywhere.
Just with better P.R. bullshit in 2010,to cover up the TRACKS

How bout we give the “real”local people full time work at next years Rippy Pro as commentators. Instead of the shit house Rippy suckhole commentators, how bout we get the local aboriginal tribe in da booth.saying gold like this”this Kenn Dann making a comeback live on da mic with my real little bro..Dale Richards live on the mic,fucken h’ay bro,we could surf better than these whitey cocksuckin’ ho’s,h’ay bro,I can pop air’s beta than that jew sucking whitey fannyman,fuck yeah bro,where’s da the free piss,bro,”don’t know bro”well fuck Im not doing this comeback for nuthin,eh bro,fuck these white cunts we’re going walk about” ”

Not the 2010 Rippy pro bullshit of Pottz and Sean D.(rip curl family members)saying “micks last 6.7 was outstanding ” but “Neco’s bottom turns just arn’t as good”,when has bottom turns made anyone lose, What the fuck??
I personally reckon Neco’s surfing better than ever
Freddy Pee will love this local/indig(I)ness commentators move more than anyone

I’ve been wondering for awhile why Pottz jumped ship from Quiksilver,which has a great hisTORY of hiring all the ex-world champs-T.C,M.R,Kong(old people’s world title) etc.
Now in 2010, Mr No bullshit Potter is with Rip Curl.I think I may know the truth on this one,but I think Mailman will be able to give us the inside ahhh……mail on this one people

P.S. when’s quiksilver gonna start paying Barton Lynch some sorta DEALer ship right’s??he’s more aussie that hoyo

@Trauzer, do yourself the best surfing favor you have ever done for yourself and order a CI M4. Fucking rip stick and I’ve never owned a corpo board before.

Template is wider overall, heaps of concave and the thing lifts and flies… amazing. I clock in at 190 after my trip, 11 lbs less in three weeks of surfing, but it rode unreal day one. I’m 6’2″…. so I went with a 6’3″, 2 1/4. A buddy got a 6’6″ and he found new life on the thing. If you’re not fit, order it 2 1/2. The rails, tail and nose are super foiled so it rides thin, but it floats and planes ridiculously.

If you go to the SB store, they have a “blem” section and the 2nds sell for under 400. If you find one, buy it cause they change over the blems pretty often… I got screwed when I stashed two behind some fishes and the next day, they were gone.

M4 dude, fuck fishes…

dream scenario dane wins brazil with andy and jordy and parko in semi’s.

can u imagine j-bay 8 foot night trains with the full title pressure cooker boiling over?

followed up by, FINALLY. a 3 full day 8 to 10 swell in Tahiti won by Bobby followed by the 8 foot 4 day oil glass lowers lovefest with jordy nipping parko with 3 seconds to go magical magic.

you gotta admit the possibilities are fascinating with pro surfings top ten rock stars establishing the cutting edge state of the art like never before.

skud

Rip Curl’s gonna get skunked in Puerto Rico. they’re gonna be surfing 2-foot trade-wind Jobos or Aviones the whole time. outside of a perfectly placed late season hurricane swell (which only lasts 2 1/2 days max anyway), their chances of getting proper swell are slim. the North Atlantic just isn’t all that active in November, certainly not like it is in January. in short, we won’t be seeing any surfing going down at Rincon’s famed big-wave reefs.

Barbados woulda been a much better choice. more open to all swell directions, more consistent, just a safer bet overall. plus even when Soup Bowl sucks, it’s still good. 30mph NE trades blowin’ right at that wave and it’s still very contestable.

@Mike SHAME ON YOU FOR PLUGGING CI!!!
The M4 may be a ripstick supreme, but spending(more) money at CI is to feed the big machine that is ripping the heart out of surfing!

Of course, there is always the ever popular “Occy hibernated on this couch and can still rip this shit” model that I made for the Occster after his binge eating and drinking sabatical. If the dude ever figured out cocaine, he’d had saved himself the extended comeback….. what’s that you say?????

Later tonight i’m going to put a paper clip down the eyehole of my penis and get a prositute to suck me off until i cum and shoot the paper clip into her mouth with a wad of cum. Sure beats whacking yourself aye trauzersnake.

We will arrive like kings among men and make many sex crime with the copious amounts of young sweet peaches on offer.
Then on the way home i will suffer a come down and have a mood swing.I will tell the driver to kick you out in the rain so you can walk home.
Then i will go to my medicine cabinet and take a large handful of pain killers and go to the bathroom and cut myself until it stops hurting. then i will pop some sleeping tablets and pass out for 12 hours only to wake up the next day more depressed than ever on blood stained sheets.

What a preposterous slanderous allegation from epiphany and friends.

I”ve read what that lantern fellow wrote in past articles.

Lantern seems to be a larger than life outrageous and eccentric charactor with high self esteem given to long rambling anecdotes.

Dante is a sensative young man given to long solitary walks and spending to much time alone as he doesn’t have any friends. His self esteem if very low.

I fail to see how you came up with the conclusion dante = lantern

I think yall been smaokin too mach whacky tobabby yall

Dante is currently ensconced in all nine of the brown rings of Hell which we often refer to as:

1. Mind Bore
2. Lusty Bowel Quake
3. Gut Wrencher
4. Ass Muncher
5. Whore For Hairy Ass
6. Here be Scabies
7. Vaginas Are Silenced
8. Fucks the Rod
9. Betrothed… Are you Kidding?

It is now up to you, Dante/Lantern/GGDK/Etc… to grasp destiny by the horns and move your sputtering furnace towards more fertile pastures. Onwards, towards more fallow fields where the soils cling less stably to each other and remain much more agreeable to your lusty sphincter-weeds of Phillistinical parasites that harvest the brain matter of special-needs marmots.

For that, I must congratulate you with a hearty leaf blower set to ludicrous-speed, and aimed square at the feather-weight furrow of your helmet-framed brow.

Your such a cruel and unusual young fella. or should i say old dungeon master.
To be honest i’m not even sure why you don’t enjoy Dante.The sensative young poet has never done anything to hurt you.Maybe you are threatened by the fact that dante is posting to many comments which is usually your forte though you have been rather quiet since the bells comp.Like i said to @might i suggest…..if you can suggest a better website and if i have a look at it and i prefer it i may choose to leave.Or maybe not, try your luck you homoerotic old goat!

You seem to have a high opinion of your intelligence and a great love for all things sphincter and brown. You must be a huge hit on the gay scene. Gays love big cocks and they say clever men are equipped. I bet they are just lining up at the door for you. If you ever go to brazil you should go to praia galheta. There they have many muscly men all trying to out creep each other. If your brave enough to go for a surf sometimes you can spot big black rock lobsters sunning themselves on the rocks waiting for a man such as yourself to present themselves to them. A well equipped, experienced,witty and charming gringo is what you are. You my friend will be a super star! A real contender on the local gay scene i’m sure you are but why not globalize you horny old goat.

I’m a bit groused out now so i’m off to the bathroom to throw up. There goes a whole pecan pie, a 1 litre tub of sara lee ice cream and a giant sized pizza supreme.

Due to the extended break of the ASP tour and David Mailman losing first round heats and getting married, David Mailman’s Facebook page will not be updated until someone criticizes the ASP again. We will however be posting Dave’s shocker of a first round loss video and his even more shocking “bucks night out”….. though we don’t expect Dave to comment personally.

Thank you so much for visiting Dave Mailman’s Facebook page and we look forward to some interesting content sometime mid July. For those of you confused, we will continue to update the top 10 WCT placings although there should not be any changes until mid summer as Brody has proclaimed that all the Brazil results will be dropped with the back half of the draw mid season.

bon jour and stay tuned for more incredible DAve Mailman news and reports.

WHAT???

That was not an update. Where has Mailman been surfin? Is he on the couch or in the bed? How iss poor Mailman keeping up with everything considering he is selling his house and moving to a castle? What about his mother in law ? Will they ever get along??

Well, now that this blog has seized uponst itself, I have a confession to make:

I am Nug.

And Lewis Samuels.

And PeterPerfect (but only on weekends and alternating business casual Fridays).

I once was Perkus Tooth, but I got tired of trying tirelessly to teach nitwits the difference between they’re, their and there.

I am the finger that Dave Mailman furtively inserts into his fiancé’s derriere every evening that she allows me to climb into her bed.

I am Chas Smith’s dignity.

I once expelled my pee pee yogurt all over a Bagel before feeding it to a slithering trauzer snake… the most poisonous reptile known to man.

And last, but certainly not least, I actually stuck my wee wee in the brushed aluminum finish toaster that is perched adjacent to the cutlery on Chris Coté’s kitchen shelf.

But don’t worry folks, The Nug will barely feel the preening future Wal-Mart greeter’s 2-1/4” cock as it shamefully jackhammer’s our favorite blogger’s bound and broken butthole later that evening in the basement of some stodgy dive near Beach Boulevard and the 405.

Good luck, boss. Baby wipes, Vaseline, a pack of ice and a day in bed… and you’ll be back into game shape in no time.

Looking forward to the next post.

Wow, Enoch Ward comes home to cannon fire!

Where’s the deviant savant been?

“I am Chas Smiths dignity”.
“I once expelled my pee pee yogurt all over bagel”
“pee pee and Cote’s kitchen ecoutrement”
“I smell Dave Mailman’s fetish”

Then he goes all “Dante” on his next comment.

Lord of the Flies meeting critical mass, the end of a blog. Now it’s time for the vultures (Mailman, Bagle and “mark”) to ride out this torched wreckage while it’s “author” finds himself. It’s about zombie maintainence at this point and who better than no one.

Dear Nug,

Like fine wine, the predicted order of finish at the Rip Curl Bells contest ages better with each read. It seems like only yesterday that I read those hallowed words, “Taj over Bede.”

In fact, I am going to scroll up to the top of the page just to dip into that well of genious one more time.

Your posts over the last week have been amazing, good sir. Excellent work.

Talk to you soon,

@Randomrandomness….. I think the word you are searching for is “overwhelming”. Everything looks good and you still have to save enough for beer.

If you were me and had more smoke, the beer would probably qualify as dinner. Then you could spend an evening commenting on Post Surf…. errrrr Nugable.

All abandoned blogs look the same to me.

Hey all!

Just wanted to update everyone on the news and snooze of Dave Mailman’s life! Davo is charging his wedding which is helping him forget his “result” last week and the sky is always sunny! With an Argentine Puma in his grasp, our protaganist chases his prey.

I know Dave would want you all to know that you should all trust the ASP braintrust and support our parent companies. Your patronage ensures the continuing process of the WCT dynamics to the tour you deserve…. a ” Dream Tour”. Stay tuned for updates for Jbay!

We’d love if you all would sign up as friends of Dave, so check your Facebook page today and NETWORK!!!! All the cool surf guys do, so become a bro ho today!!!!!!

Thank you and we promise more Dave Mailman news and snooze soon. Cheers.

Okay.

Time to quit your foolish whining tongues and face reality. The Nug is merely on hiatus. And by ‘hiatus,’ I mean he’s currently holed up in a locally-operated motel room in Henderson, Nevada – nude; with a mouthful of an elderly prostitute’s pubic hair, fists full o’ hillbilly heroin, and a fanny-pack brimming with discarded Skoal sputum shrouding his partially erect Lit’l Smokie. However…

Do not worry. Do not despair. Times will change.

Once the women are done fucking the polar bear, he will return to us. That, I am sure of.

If he doesn’t, I will eat Perkus Tooth’s regurgitated AI shit sandwich.

Clay Marzo's Dealer

Free advertising is GOOD advertising!

“The final conspiracy to shroud Clay’s eccentricity was his penchant for a puff on a doobie. That too is debunked by Solotaroff, who, while citing it as a regular indulgence, says it more has the effect of “bracing his moods, which can reel on a dime, and allays the jitters that overtake him when he heads out into the world,” than exacerbating the condition. Though admittedly, he’s no doctor. In any case, as you’ll see, Clay’s odd behaviour began long before he met Mary Jane.”

Sometimes you wake up to what you wrote the previous drunken evening and you just start laughing all over again…. sober.

And I agree with Enoch, Mark should start his own blog.

Marzo sure built in an excuse to stay off the tour, didn’t he? Tortured and lonely, with only his green smoke as an equalizer, young Clay avoids risk, travel and ratings while cashing the Quik checks none the less.

Somewhere, Dane is kicking himself for not figuring out that profile first.

17 04 2010
Voice of reality

Lets get this straight….

Clay Marzo is a Quiksilver Young Gun, poster boy. Rolling Stone documents his open Marijuana usage and instantly, Quik gains not only street cred, but announces it’s “Pro Drugs” ideology. Pretty edgy for Bob “Waterman of the Year” Mc knight.

Meanwhile, across town in the Volcom offices, the “braintrust” meets to discuss this apparent shot to their bow. How can they let Quik assume the drug friendly merchandising campaign when Volcom has nutured the impression of being the rebel brand? A call comes in from corporate interrupting the meeting.

Richard Woolcott:” Oh, Yes sirs, we’re working on that as you speak”.

Troy Eckert:” Wooly, who was that?”

Woolcott: “Chase Manhattan and Citicorp CEO’s…. they want to know what we have planned to re establish our rebel brand status, their investors are quite urgent”

Doug Collier: ” Listen, we need an immediate response, my emails blowing up with angry shareholders over the fact that we alluded to drug usage all these years, but allowed Mc Knight to claim it”

Eckert: ” Don’t worry boys, we still have the shots of Bruce slobering over that pile of powder on the mirror with the loaded handgun on the table next to some soiled panties and a half gallon of bourbon, we’re good to go.”

Collier: “Why do I have to do all the thinking around here? Fuck Troy, do you know if either Citi Corp or Chase own Jack Daniels or Colt firearms??? It’s all about cross marketing dudes and our investors would be furious if you screw this up.”

Eckert: “It’s cool Dougie, calm down…. we’ll figure out which brand of hard alcohol and firearms they do own and photoshop the logos in… piece of cake”.

So Enoch, you’re with us again…. that trip over to Blasphemy’s has left you rather quiet lately. Yeah, we’re just banging around in Nugs basement waiting for his mom to let him play. Some weird new kid has been desperate for attention and the old breakfast routine is staler than even the bagel. Tsnake is buying Marks paddless SUP and Elwood is negotiating the deal behind the water heater but Mark won’t allow anyone else to talk. Mailman has gone missing since his bucks night out and his Facebook editor is searching the spanish social networks for him. Peter Perfect is busy with Chas in the “locked” closet and I’m running out of weed.

In other words…. critical mass.
