How cool is that
Love when someone who isnt one of the normal suspects gets a win.
I was hoping for a Kai Otten win but Ace was my second pick.
The first wave of his in the final was just crazy

Yeah I watched the final but missed the last 3 minutes. Bloody customers
Poor old King Kelly wasn't happy mid heat
Not too sure how good all those people standing on the reef will be for it

I saw Ace's late drop into the barrel for his 9.67, crazy late with his board wriggling around losing grip and nearly free falling but he kept it together. Great skill and good to watch.

I'm surprised his knees to give in and buckle on that heavy drop at the start of the final round.

How's the technique! Leaning forward hanging by a rail. Looks awesome.
