I have been watching the heat recaps from the roxy pro yesterday and some of the surfing is amazing.

However below is a link to Carrisa Moore heat where she gets a 9.6 for two cutbacks and close out turn.

WTF

Compare it to the second link which is Allana Blanchard 9.17 point plus wave.

The competition is rigged, just like when Owen wright did a air and de Souza beat him doing a floater in brazil

My advice to anybody regarding surf judging, give it a shot yourself! Its much harder than you think.

Ive judged heaps of comps and the stress involved is a lot more than you think!!

Im guessing the red thumb brigade hate comps as well

I heard that this longboard bloke got beaten by three girls in a comp once, has never surfed another heat since. Must be hard to be him

it really doesn't matter because they were in different heats.


still it hard to separate them. moore had well more control, carved harder but her wave was smaller.

blanchard was lacking control and only about 2 moves did she turn hard of the bottom. the rest were 45% attacks with a lip smack which any decent pro surfer does with their eyes closed. her wave was a beauty thou.

they are only going to score on the best two or three moves on a wave. if the others aren't as good they tend to detract from the good moves

Judged a few heats myself and I know its not enjoyable.

Got told by someone who did a judging course that they put up a video of four surfers all surfing one wave behind another at once and were told to judge that. God knows how you would do it.

But Carrisa's wave unless the camera missed something was two cut backs and a close out re-entry.

The commentators were all calling a mistake as well as the girl behind got a 7 for doing less.

Thats the stressful bit imo, 2 or 3 surfers up and riding at the same time is bloody hard. How many judges do they have 5 or 6?

Talk about losing to a girl triggered a memory of this clip.

1.32 the great Andy Irons admits to losing to a girl.

And the wave at 1.56 is I think my all time favourite with the "urfs Up"Big Z bow to the wave after the first barrel.

So much irony in this clip from the song to alot of his words.

I would like to see some more from that desert point session.

I read about it and Andy apparently surfed himself to exhaustion and just got better and better. Parko was out there and I think it was him I read talking about it and was just in awe of Iron's surfing.

Iron's got out of the water at the end and gave his boardshorts to a local
