BOP Cali Discussion Thread

That was no scuba guy, that was Svein Rasmussen.

I see where your coming from, but at the end of the day he is a professional athlete. All he does is spend time in the ocean, yes he doesnt flat out race train, but he does race train.......his indurance and fittness for all his disciplines cross over and certain natural abilities will always lend themselves to variations of a similar theme. What is impresses me is they guys up there that have a day job to go to.

thanks for all the results and links Chris

Spoke to Jake,s mum , he said his is a bit dissapointed , he said he got caught on the bouy and rekons he might have come in about six place.Butt thats just racing for 16 i think he,s only going to get better. , expecially with the likes of Jacko , Kelly , JM , TG to train with.Are the relays on today?

Relay final is 7am Monday QLD time

Battle Of the Paddle , a race in and out through the surf multiple times.

This is his bro , Jayden ive been trying to get him into stand up aswell , he can paddle too.Get all their talent from there Uncle obviousley

when he beats you in a arm wrestle he'll be ready thats the mail

Or when he is able to snatch the stone from Jacko's outstretched palm.

I wasnt actually being specific about aussies or top 10, my point was its not exclusive to be only good at one....look at JM, Billy, Danny, Bingo, Paul J, Chuck, just a few of those that can do both really well....and if they do race in actual surf, it will be an advantage to be able to handle the board in and out. Remember the condtions at Kirra last year, not to many BOP's been seen in the likes of that, and that was just a average day at a beach break here........not taking anything away from anyone, I guess Im not as "surprised" as lacey to see some do better than others may have thought....

Lol , hes got a while to go then
