    Keramas...I had to change up my picks this week, man there is going to be some air in this one, I think this is going to be just as exciting as Cloudbreak.

    I just can't bring myself to put Bruce on my team, going with Yadin instead for that value slot. I also took Julian over Kerr so I could put Holy Toledo on my team.

    I was running the speculator about 10 different ways and no matter what happens, Round 3 is going to be insane. It's going to be hard to keep the friendly fire away for everyone, no matter who is on their team.

    #1 priority for Zosea next year needs to be making these webcasts better, this one is already echoing and giving me issues and apparently according to it the contest is in round 2 and wilko is surfing against bourez...

    They FINALLY got the heats on demand working correctly. That entire heat is nuts, I could see JJF and Seabass in the finals after that show.

    Just watched a few highlight vids... the ABUSE those boards take is unbelievable. You really get an appreciation when you watch those big turns, lip bashes, and landings in super slow-mo of the forces involved.

    haha got to go with the seasoned pros, Bruce is a great free surfer but has been out of the circuit too long to really put up a good fight

    Whole teams through to rd 3 except Irons. I liked his match up against Taj too but he looked like he was lost out there.

    The slo-mos are awesome. Surprised Wilson only snapped his board.

    a lot of factors went into bruce's disaster heat. He's been surfing giant waves lately, his heat was way early in the morning, rusty at the comp scene and he's been experimenting with a lot of different shapes (isn't acclimated to any), etc

    anyway, I could barely even pay attention because sal masakala kept yapping about everything except what was going on in the heat.

    Thanks nynj, I dropped the ball yesterday because I was watching the comp.

    R3 killed my FS team--had 8 going in and 4 coming out.

    It's on hold for about another hour at least today, but the surf cam is still up on LIVE. Pretty morning in Bali!
