    I agree with you matt. Just venting. Summer was pretty flat here and more newbs than I've ever seen. Few days we had waves most were just floating around.

    Had to ask my wife last week wtf these YETI stickers were on cars.

    I rarely catch any of the events, will get a replay or highlight sometimes. Was laid up recovering from surgery hopped up on meds last year when chopes was on. Just so happened to be some insane waves, and watching JJF and Slater go at it was pretty epic.

    We have all been YETI stickers at least once.
    You know it's late the bars closing up you looking for company she's looking for company. You been drinking Jager bombs all night and she ain't no beauty but hey she's alright. Maybe you lost your glasses but they're probably on top of your head and she offered to give you a lift home. You didn't think she meant carry you to her cave but what ever. She says "Goony goo goo" and before you know it you end up sticking a Yeti. Happens to everyone right?

    Right guys?

    guys?

    Unfortunately the ones that aren't star stuck, are not running the machine.

    I mean, he didn't actually land it properly, so why should it deserve a high score? If that's all you're upset about - what MakeItStop said - stop watching. Stop supporting. I used to watch ASP events when they first arrived to the internets (for me 2008ish, dial-up modem, that was fun) but now they're overly-hyped an mediocre. I used to play Fantasy Surfer religiously also, gave up on that too.

    Yes I agree, WSP is off their wits nowadays and something needs to change, and it will one day, but I don't believe an online petition will do that.

    Cutbacks and hacks are boring after a while. I find myself watching an event that has waves and there happens to be surfers in the foreground.
