2013 Billabong Pipe Masters

I'm stoked with the swell coming in. Looks like it will start out as a Pipe fest then switch over to more Backdoor by Tuesday--good variety.

 

yea this is gonna be pretty epic

whos rooting for who?

I kinda think seeing mick win a 3rd would be great, but the Aussies talk a lot of smack and are little big for their britches

Last year my buddy saw Kelly walking down the beach and in his slurring drunk Aussie bro chatter (thanks CT for that phrase) shouted:

'OYE! C*nt! Pahh-ko's got yah numbah!'

kinda funny

 

I'd like to see Mick go out early and Kelly win, to pull the come-from-behind miracle for his twelfth title, and then...

QUIT, for gods sake! He needs to go off and have babies with his hot girlfriend, start the next phase of his life, surf businessman, philanthropist, whatever... but let's get some new blood at the top of the tour. Hell, if he knocks his girl up soon enough we might have the next Slater world Champion by the year 2030!!

 

Starts today! 3 hours left to lock in your FS picks.

 

The feed is live now! Morning show 7:45, first heat around 8:15 (1:15pm EST).

 

Is anyone else's feed constantly freezing/disconnecting. "Stream is temp off air"...etc..etc.

Freaking pi$$ing me off!!

 

yep i have to keep refreshing

 

eff kelly. he rips and all and i have mad respect for the dude but he's won this sheet enough i wanna see some new faces take the title. Mick all the way.

 

Dorian out already

 

Many broken boards today.

 

and dislocated shoulders... ****ty way for KP to end his career on the CT

 

Why does pipe always have to start finals week? Sorry grades...

 

RR pronounces contest, connest.

 

Robert has a teen aged daughter.

 

Good point Doog!

I meant to say a "Men's World Champion!"

 

I think the tour is better with KS... If you want to be the champ you have to beat the champ. It would be different if he was slipping and it was hard to watch. He still dominates and has stepped up his air game to keep up with the young bucks.
I do agree that it's cool to see other guys win, but it's cool to heave them beat Slater... I'd love to see KS vs. JJF in the final at Pipe with the world title on the line.

 

why was it called off today?

 

solid swell forecasted for later in the waiting period

 

Round 3 is about to start!
