Fantasy Surfer Bells Beach

f*ckin adam robertson....

 

yeah ive got him and taj out now, not looking good

 

I lost Wilson and Payne. Plus I think I've got two guys going head to head in rd 3. Maintaining 1st place is going to be tricky.

 

this is garbage.

i lost robertson, taj, knox (thought it would be at bells), and wilson


traded adam melling, got kelly for jordy. faacckkk

 

i feel ya on that, i wanted Robo to take down jordy, even tho jordys on my team. What a heat. I would say best of round 2, beside kerrzy going nutS!

 

kerr, wright, bede advance rd 2
mick, parko, muniz and wilko advanced from rd 1
only lost DP in 2nd

looking to make a big jump in the standings boys!!!

 

Wow, i only had 2 guys win their round 1 heats (kelly & Parko). and only Owen wright advance out of round 2.

There goes my #2 spot.

 

It really is amazing how its really anybody's given day, or heat, or wave during this kinda of sporting event. more so than any other sport i would say. This is really the first season i have watched a majority of the events live and i love it.

any predictions for quarter finals??

 

Adriano's killing it now. its on live now @6:15pm

 

I watched most of round 2 yesterday... You guys were saying that wasn't bells? I wasn't listening to the comentary, just watching heats. It was like 3ft overhead and perfect peeling rights? Bells wasn't working? I was under the impression I was watching pretty nice waves at bells. Those rights were fu*((ing money. The goofies were having a tough time though for sure. It looked like they were lacking speed and relying on huge gouges off the top... I didnt see any good backside barrels or really any goofy foot standouts. The wave looked just a tad too fast for the size... I wish Occy were in the event, he would have lined that sh** up right!!!

I thought bobby surfed well taking Taj out, but other than that, the goofies were making us all (goofies) look bad out there.

 

Round 2 was held just down the road from Bells at a spot called winkipop. Bells really isn't a high performance wave, especially at high tide (which was the case during R2). Winkipop has been the backup venue for Bells for several years running now, and its really the better wave on most days.

Often times they have ended up running more than half the event at winkipop, it adds a bit of a roll of the dice when picking out fantasy surf team members too, cause you don't know which wave your dudes will be riding or in what heats.

Winkipop looks similar to bells and is a really similar set-up, its just that when bells is fat and mushy, winkipop is usually barelling like a mad-man. Also the name is fun to say.

 

Especially fun to say with an Australian accent. Winkipop!

 

parko wins! the last min of the final was sick

 

The quarter finals to the final was sick

 

i like how the best wave of the final was one that really didn't matter to the outcome...parko read the conditions better & got the best waves. mick had a few nice moves on his waves, but parko def. won that one...
