Is there anyone better than our beloved Oklahoman Chief Of Executives to the Global Home Of Surfing at maintaining a professional, faultless stance when it comes to defending the integrity of the sport? I believe not. Read below, where none other than The Mr. Erik Logan responds to the stone throwing athletes which we just […]
If you haven’t heard yet, some drama is spewing around the surf world. To spoil the fun, it’s nothing serious, just yet another complaint about judging. Gabriel Medina, 3X World Champion, just sent a harrowing message to the WSL via his Instagram, shortly after the completion of the Surf Ranch Pro. Read: “Dear WSL, Please […]
Kelly Slater brings in a large majority of viewers for the Woz right? That’s the presumed reason he received the wildcard for the second half, and the first half of 2024? Of course there’s the Olympic qualifications, as well as his “contributions to surfing”, but it’s regularly assumed that Kelly draws a lot of eyes. […]
The race to get onto the Championship Tour has now become the center of attention to the surfing world at large. The CT itself is constantly on the receiving end of shit talk, criticism, negative comment boards, bad luck, shaming, etc. The Challenger Series is the sweet, innocent, cute, new little sibling. You can’t hate […]
6 events. 80 surfers. 10 spots up for grabs. If surfing was big enough, someone could film a reality show about the Challenger Series. Almost had it with Make Or Break. Nice try, WSL. Or better yet, maybe we could program an algorithm into one of these new AI bots to take all of the […]
Now that we’re done and dusted with the MYC, we can move on to the next brainchild of the WSL; the Final 5. Many quarrels have been had over this very topic – the entire idea, the location, the format (sudden death) etc. That is not what I am here to do today, most of […]
The results are in – the mid year cut is official, and we now have the CT roster locked in for the back half of the 2023 World Tour. As you remember, I made some predictions before the year started. We’ll have a look at how I fared near the end of this post. For […]
The West Coast has something cooking. You can smell it from Blacks to Rincon. Here’s your personal invite to the BBQ. In 2010, California saw 7 surfers on the World Tour – plus a wildcard in Timmy Reyes. The surfers were: Dane Reynolds, Taylor Knox, Bobby Martinez, Pat Gudauskas, Brett Simpson, Tanner Gudauskas, and Nate […]
I’ve reached 100 followers. This is my official thank you to all of you. I’ve spent a lot of time watching videos and reading articles about “how to grow my website”, “how to grow my brand”, etc. What I’ve found is a lot of tricks and tips about how to feed these algorithms the correct […]
The contest at Bells is called on. 30ish minutes of waiting for a start. In the midst of lunch for the kid, lunch for myself, afternoon baseball, mental planning. A quick toss outside. The event has slipped my mind. ‘Pop’ goes the leather. The rain is gone. My team lost, again. What else happened? I […]
