video is back on for me...
but seriously, rip curl haven't got their online act together. the commentators were just talking through two big turns about the surfer up and riding whilst the cameramen were focusing on the other two paddling through the whitewater... wtf..?
forcetwelve, can we expect it to go offshore during the week?
- forcetwelve0
yeah — camera work is shithouse. ive been trying to get a message announced - but they're not listening to me!
you guys try too... it'll be funny. make sure you use your NT name!
i'd say the winds should be off shore tomorrow, maybe a touch of W still. the rest of the week is looking good though.

Need a bit more personality in the commentary box. Schmoo and Pottz at the Snapper comp were funny.
A bit more irreverent humor, that can't get in trouble by the ASP or the sponsors would be good.

yeah a bit too much talk of snickers and fukin virgin blue for my liking.
what ever happened to the old days where the boys were all on the piss in between heats?!

I reckon Micks going to take the WCT this year. He is so focussed, fit, fast and as everyone else has mentioned, he rips...
I feel kinda sorry for the girls. looks like half their Bells experience will take place in onshore mush.
- forcetwelve0
yeah - the surf is average today. but gee, so is their standard of surfing.
sorry girls...

She's nowhere near as good as the guys (not that they need to be) but you should see Stephanie Gilmore surf in decent waves. She's like Lisa Andersen 2.0. Really good style and really good in the barrel.
That Carissa Moore (not in the comp) is amazing too. She's like 14 and busting air reverses... She's better than me!
