the guy on the right looks like he should be saying in the most heavily russian accent "I am a 50 year old Russian surfer...from Russia..and I have come to take Kelly Slaters throne!"
The "Guy" had Slater's FL throne BEFORE Kelly was a twinkle in his father's eye. But then I guess you don't know who the "Tom and Gerry" are on his shirt either. Sad indeed.
It's been said that MT once surfed a contest in Monmouth Beach/North End Long Branch... I'd like to know if that's true.
Been hangin on wall and decided to take it out other day, noticed weak spot was crackin so duct taped it so I could feel were it was better and hopefully give it some support. Woulda takin it off for pic if I knew you were gonna show it to the man himself! LOL
