yep the overlapping heats are great

With all the equal pay talk with the ladies, I thought the wsl might offer them equal quality waves as well

Especially so with having two groups surfing at once

Equal pay doesn't equal equal rights.

Or even equal revenue generation.

The blokes are the main event, lots more eyes watching that then the women as shown by the Facebook viewer numbers.

D-bah was pumping all morning if they surfed there the comp would have been finished by midday but for some unknown reason snapper was the call, a lot of talk about the venders who paid a lot of money needing some return from their outlay. They kept it on hold for hours only updating the site with another delay a lot of pissed off people, blind Freddy could have told you at 8 am the comp would not get a run at snapper today but LM was on fire.

Yep, should have run it. Better numbers watching on a wknd than a Monday.
Also 30k a day extra to run at dbah might have something to do with it. Stab had an article on it yesterday.

Its a crime the wsl aren't picking their judges from the greenrooms ranks of expert impartial judges.

The funny thing was the commentators, you could tell they thaught it was short but were not "able" to make the call as to what they really thought...

Anyways, I made $$$ so not fussed, same old same old

So your saying that last one move wave was a 7? I bet you didn't even watch the final.

No a panel of professional, experienced and impartial judges from numerous countries that were there gave scores, they dropped the high and low and averaged the rest.


Conspiracy theories about the WSL... Ffs... One event in and the tin foil hats are already on..

I've never been into any form of conspiracy.

I believe his wave was over scored for the one good move compared to other waves ridden in the final.

Lacey what do you think old fella or are you starting another war.

Sure is.. Exclusive coverage means just that..

I kinda agree on the scoring thing. That was a pretty solid score for one move but It was a no hand rotation and looking at Kolohe s best wave they had to go there, it was probably better IMO.

I just reckon it looks different on screen to being there half the time amd the judges who are professionals get crucified unfairly. Pretty sure Kolohe had priority and could have kept him off that wave easily. Why isn't anyone having a crack at him about his heat strategy? It's like the footy team gets beaten blame the ref amd forget about all the mistakes the players made.
