He is gnarly
Those turns were so sharp and he knows where to be at the right time...always

Jordys turns and hacks before that quarterfinal were Killer... I thought...
And Mr Florence, Kerrzy and Young were also my favorites in that contest
Great to watch

Rounds 4 & 5 were amazing to watch yesterday. Looking forward to the grand finale tonight. :D

Could you imagine what it would be like if you had a kneeboarding contest in waves like they're getting at Keramas :shock:

John how killer was that!!!!!some top surfing and that Santa Cruz kid is showcasing what he's got...those backside vertical hits of his are amazing.
Nat's heat with Wilson will be a heat to watch
Powerful backside attack vs huge air/ barrel rider
My money's on Kerr though
He's in it to win it :lol:

Egad.

Nat surfs past Wilson, only to be 'outdone' by Bourez in final seconds.

Dunno about that call, but DANG Nat's been solid!

Those waves... 8)

And, as a bonus, local is coughing up some niceness :D

Bob I agree with you about that Bourez /young heat
Even the final seemed a bit off
Great to watch though

Maybe this is 'Family Year'

Recall the Mel's during KSUSA Jan contest / Maverick's / SC contest

Now, it's Parkes... World Champ Dad, and Garrett has a heat coming up at US Open (Heat 13, now on 10.)

8) 8) 8)

Saw Garrett this morning, had my Friar Tuck with me :lol: Garrett surfed with some big powerful hacks for a guy his size. Big vertical hits backside and big carving gouges going frontside in the bumpy waves. He should do well in the small surf, he's light, but packs a powerful wack! 8) He beat Damien Hobgood and Torrey Meister to advance into round 2 tomorrow. Might take some photos. :wink:

Jumped onto the live stream for that heat, and DANG did he just pull a rabbit out of the hat! Final seconds, last wave of the heat... went from 4th to 1st and on to R3 8)

Edit: Ok, I missed something... he missed out on 1st in that heat by .04, but still advancing
