Wow awesome race! Definitely lived up to its name. Connor Baxter is a freak! Did Danny get around that first buoy?

Looked like Jacko came in one place ahead of Jake just outside the top 10 but commentators didnt say placings so a rough count through from the webcast,

the youngsters seem to be making a charge with Conner winning and was that Kai Lenny about 5th with Zane in the top 10 also.

Did you see Brian Szymanski on his new 17'6" board in the race before?.. That thing looked wicked.

Well doesn't that validate Connor's SUPper of the year award. Seriously can that kid be stopped? Watched a bus a little while ago posted about him talking about his technique and he says at one point he hasn't been in a race this year and not won it! FREAK!

thats kind of an odd statement...there are plenty of those top guys that are very good at both, an I can see a definite corrolation between the 2. And its going to be really interesting to see the results of future races if they ever come to a beach here with real surf conditions to paddle in and out of.......

If Kai and Slater and Zane decided to spend as much time race training as Connor does, I'd imagine the 4 of them would be equally impressive and hard to beat.

Jacko looked really good.. If only he had got a better start.

What a bummer that they had that scuba guy out there waiting for Jamie to round the last buoy and making him fall ..

Tomorrow will be interesting.
