    I see that Desouza is once again cruising through his heats largely on the strength of his "amazing" floaters (tongue planted firmly in cheek). C'mon ASP, you're really losing any last shred of credibility by continuing to move this guy forward. He has the ugliest surfing style on tour, hands down.

    You gotta be kidding me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcT-SheYndo

    It's not like you guys show any favoritism to Slater when he's surfing on on "home" soil.... Oh wait, now that I think about it....

    Never mind.

    Definitely pushing the Chimp, he's the last Brazzo left. 8 pts for a crap doggy doored barrel and crab stance bs hit. Kerrzy needs to pull out the guns....

    Watching the Brazilians surf (especially ADS) makes me wonder if they are somehow related to crabs....

    You mad bros? ADS may not have the flow down fully, but he rarely gets overscored. Parko gets fcking overscored every comp imo.

    I don't think Parko gets over scored. If you think he gets more points for doing the same maneuvers as someone else, it's probably because he links them together so effortlessly (flow). If anything, he probably gets underscored on occasion for making it look too easy.

    I agree, Joel Parkinson is one of my favorite surfers. His moves are so smooth and fluid, and he does big radius carves and powerful looking turns. He's due for a title for sure, which I hope can happen this year cus he's getting up there in age.

    I don't get all the Brazil hate, although the nationals do not really have an aesthetically pleasing way of surfing. But the location looks so ideal, with beautiful scenery, especially on the beach ;) . Maybe it's just cus they always keep the slums off the panned out shots, but overall the place looks beautiful. I'd love to visit and surf there someday.
