I'd much rather watch you and a few big Hawaiian's throwing buckets of water in over head waves

Too true. Big Dave did not look in his element out in that slop.

Kai was a step above looking at those selected highlights.

Hey Dogman with ya on that one, I think that the boys from down under might just rattle a few of the favourites if they watch the trials.

Then hopefully a few of the internationals will stay and go straight to Corona.

Watching them pull into waves at spot x would be fun.

phill

I don't want to appear to be knocking it, but... IMHO I don't like the use of so much paddle on the wave. There looks to be a lot of wave slapping going on. What is other's take on this ???

it all depends if they are really using the paddle to generate more leverage, power and/or speed
or is it just blatant paddle twirling

IMO when they preform a "paddle twirl" and dont hold the t grip and they have both hands on their shaft (sounding gay as) that just looks kookie to me

but in saying that it took me ages to get my head around it (sounding gay as)and now i'm being head hunted by the salvation army marching band to be their head batton twirler

yewwwwww paddle twirling
