Cody Robinson // Winkipop - video

Swellnet Dispatch

If you woke up anywhere near Vicco's Surf Coast this morning you'd know a bracing north-west wind is keeping temps well into the single digits, while down at sea level a mid-range swell is breaking headlong into the chill. This follows an excellent weekend of waves. And even though the following video wasn't filmed over the weekend the conditions were near identical at times.

Cody Robinson, timeless Winkipop

I'm sure he's a great surfer, i find that style arrogantly jarring. Did like the drop in dude tho.......

I'm with you spider monkey. That style looks kind of awkward. (Wiggle,wiggle,pump,pump). Don't gete wrong,I'm sure my style is 2nd rate, but I don't post it. Bring back some smooth lines to bring back the throth.

Good surfer.

Shit board.... except for maybe the 1/100 of a second duration of the end section reverse.

Surfing ain't about the external view - as much as the critique of said view empowers styleless internet fuckwits such as myself - but more about the joy of the rider.

Having said that ......https://m.

Get some fucking drive !

Actually I have been surfing when he has lately! Guy does massive power punts and has a great style with carves! That's winki.. Down the line fast and hard to do many full turns! Lots of power in his surfing and it seems like its still developing!

As I said , he looks like a really good surfer.

Just the hops between turns. Zero flow.

Holding him up to the comparison of the most stylish surfer of all time - Curren - is extremely unfair , but check the flow of the Jbay vid with that of the flow of the vid here.

Mate , I know as much about boards as I do about surfing well myself ....but I've seen enough surfing to realise there is something missing from the above performance.

Board length , less rocker , more volume ?

Maybe hit up Maurice Cole and ask his opinion ?

Looks to me like Mr Robinson is missing an opportunity to surf to the level he is capable of .

OK well the last section of winki was weak as piss winki! The waves that day where gutless! And the first section was fast tubing winki..... In my opinion winki looks better and is more aesthetically pleasing to surf! But bells Is more performance in manoeuvre options! As you can completed a full move! Recover and move on into the next move! It also has many air sections.. Smaller boards have changed the way Bella can be surfed! Now back to Cody... It's winki have a look at the replays of the curl pro this year! And you will see guys doing big speed floats/carves with closeout whacks with occasional airs!
To get though dead ( but still fast winki you have to speed hop like a fuck wit sometimes! We all do it.. Even the pros at the wsl, now have you ever seen him surf other waves? Also they are shooting from way above looking down at winki . looks way different!

Bambam101 Thursday, 1 Jun 2017 at 6:31am

Hmm! You say the "hops between turns". What would have happen if he had of just stood there? Do you think he would have got past the dead spots with speed to do a turn? Or maybe you think a mini mal for cruising over those sections might be prettier... Although then you might say we would have to sacrifices a good turn for a (normal hunting beach performance board pump through dead section) for a gliding flow though a 2 ft winki dead section!

Geezzz... tough room, I reckon he rips.

Looks like he likes to go FAST and the only bit I can see is he gets a bit choppy when the sections fatten up.

None of us are guilty of that though:)

zenagain Monday, 29 May 2017 at 8:14pm

Not weird.

I happen to agree with Goof and like to see the lead up to those crazy turns. Whether it involves 3-5 turns is moot, I like to see the whole wave from start to finish.

goofyfoot Monday, 29 May 2017 at 8:31pm

I just like seeing the flow through the whole wave and you get to see how they set up for doing that one "crazy" move.
It doesn't mean you can't see it, just means you get to see how they tie it in with the rest of the wave.
It's ok Cody, I mean bambam, you surf shiiitloads better than me, I'm not giving you shit.. just my opinion (which means F.A)

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Monday, 29 May 2017 at 10:18pm

Your opinion is just that! Your opinion... Now I am defiantly not Cody, but I have witnessed his surfing live. He should get the cam man down lower on the stairs for a more ideal view!
Now even I will take off on a wave that only offers one pump! If there is a right or left coming from the other direction! Its called a ramp.... You should try it and maybe you could do a air or something...
And your right I do surf shit loads better than you.
But if that ramp and turn only comes from a 3second ride! So you suggest we don't show the crazy move because it didn't have a 20 meter run up? Weird again.. Think about it a bit.

Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 12:45pm

Not on a broken up mixed swell with a westerly wind!

Great surfer, and i know how his back foot being so far back can look a little awkward.

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 7:19am

Hmmm so the only real negative part here is that he is lacking a little flow " apparently" some of you are saying perhaps his surfing is a little blocky?
Ok well the Dane f Reynolds board is best surfed with a large fin but with a smaller center fin as Is jordys grabbit! Now jack freestone is a similar front foot surfer and his board is the dx1! Now the fanning fin is stiff for a front foot surfer that likes to do tail blows and airs,nose picks as a lot of weight is on the nose during recovery of maneuver! Jack also used a fin with a smaller back fin... Maybe a Merrick GAM large could solve the blockyness! I think he rips and could make the wsl if he becomes well rounded and doesn't surf winki too much!

good to see you sticking up for Cody Bambam , and yeah he rips , but in this clip , he seems to have a shaky bottom turn and does not really bury his rail when he carves off the top ,which means its sort of a 1/2 carve, Looks like a lack of speed in his equipment and that's why he constantly pumping to try and generate speed , which makes him look a bit awkward. Jack Freestone rode a Pyzel at the Bells event this year as his Dx-1 's haven't worked for him this year , and making the back fin smaller will only lessen the carve.

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 12:52pm

OK pyzel! Was that just as a step up? Half turns that's what I have been saying all along about winki,winki is a slice most of the time because go the full Monty on it you will get left behind.
And I disagree on the smaller backfin making your cutback smaller! Rather the opposite as it drags around not letting you get a nice open wing span while holding your rail and two large side fins in the water creating a bigger arch!

sharkman's picture
sharkman's picture
sharkman Wednesday, 31 May 2017 at 8:20am

what a smaller back fin does is decreases the power you can put through your rail turn , as there is less drive when you transition from one rail to the other , did you watch the Margo clip ? Sows Winki is a very high performance wave when you have speed to burn and power in your surfing.

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Wednesday, 31 May 2017 at 11:18am

Yes it is a performance wave! But on most waves your limited!! Look at say sampler and the picks of what I think is rincon in California! Now that's a wave that I call "hi performance" because you can tweak you turns out properly! Winki high performance but not in the same way as trestles or say that wave Dane was surfing! Smaller back fon makes your carve smaller??? I think Dane/ jordy / parko might disagree! Two ride manly the Merrick large and parkos js fin had a smaller center fin!

I reckon Cody surfs really well.

But... half of the footage - essentially all of the small stuff below shoulder/head high - should have been left out.. he ends up doing the same thing four or five times over (pump, pump, pump, then air reverse). Nothing wrong with that in real life but it doesn't make for compelling viewing on the web.

First couple of waves were cracking though.

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 7:29am

Its just winki therm! You can have the perfect wall in front of you and do nothing but pump and race it! I have turned off it a bit lately as I think it's more aesthetically pleasing visually to surf! But actually creates bad habits in your surfing!
You will note.. That a lot of surfcoast surfers miss section and really high line race! Instead of doing combos!
This is winkipop syndrome!

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 1:33pm

Think Jake Patterson in the billabong pro jnr at bells in the early 90s! Takes off near rincon speed runs across to the bowl( that part is like winki) then when the wave straightens and heads to shore! You/he can square off and go to town doing massive tail slides floats and carves all in one combined flowing move!
You can pack more moves in to a 20 meter section of bells than a 300 meter long ride at winki most of the time!
What do they say? You have to repeat a turn 100 and something times to perfect it or something!
Hence winkipop created the professional high line speed run surfer that forgets to do turns as there to busy racing past sections to get to the next!

Sharkmate! That vid of marg simpson was taken on a day that is easily 6ft and a day when a longer board could be surfed. In a era when long boards where already being surfed! Margos a big man and he was a lot older than cody is in that vid! So his surfing was more matured! I would say Margo was at least 27 in that clip! So give Cody 7 years I'm sure he can do that for you!

Now termalben I apologize for calling your site what I did! It was a more a statement than the truth! I actually love it and have used it as other! As a base line to teach countless international travellers how to predicted a surfspot!
Now I'm just sick of the constant "unnecessary" bagging of fucking good surfers! Therm I am a massive believer of Constructive criticism! But not of degrading a up and comer fucking good surfer!
There are many surfers that are as good as wsl and paid free surfers that don't get a chance because of undiagnosed problems or other issues! We will use "Clay" as a example... Obliviously Cody is not suffering this issues!
But other young up and coming surfers can do without the bunch of internet fucking wankers that stabmag has breed! Rubbishing they actual fucking good surfing!
I enjoy surfing with groms and especially the fucking good ones and also recently I have discovered it's way better and less stressfull to surf with the wsl circus than your regular crowd!

I know some unbelievable surfers therm! Ones that have surfed in wct and on Q's and I believe in that guys ability!
And I stand by what I say! And I don't give a fuck what some daily surfsite packattack kook thinks! Therm... Because if they could really surf good! They would never say that sort of shit about a guy who fucking rips! Ever.

Therm I enjoy seeing my kook friends get the wave of there life and seeing them blown away by that wave than getting it myself!

And we need to support and help our up and coming surfer/athletes a fucking lot better than we are!

Bam, you have to realise mate that if you're going to go putting footage out into the web then it's going to be judged and some will enjoy it, others won't.
No doubt Cody surfs better than the majority of people commenting but those people aren't the ones putting there surfing out there for it to be talked about.
It's not a personal attack on Cody, but he's leaving his surfing open to be judged, like it or not.

I think with the amount of surfing content shoved in our face these days if you're going to release a clip, it has to stand out from the rest to differentiate it.
Or as Pottz says, it needs "Pizzaz!"

I agree with a lot of your comments Bam Bam (except id rather watch full waves in vids)

IMHO Winki is kind of overrated yeah sure like everywhere it has it's days especially when bigger.

But most of time guys are always trying to race that section to get to a good section to do a turn, but that section rarely comes up and often just races away or closes out.

Then next door bells is generally mush burger material.

Winki is just rated highly because in victoria most of our waves are so slow and often fat.

Looks awesome in photos though.

Smart! But mush×cleanpowerfullwall=anything you want it to be! It has the perfect landing platform to try big airs as its sloped and not to much of a flat trough! So the board will keep momentum with a softer landing.. Conditions pending!

Bambam101 Tuesday, 30 May 2017 at 4:51pm

Yes it is! But not in the same manner as trestles or jbay! The jbay angle direction breaks somewhere in between winki reefs and noosa giving it a much better angle to surf and why curren vids look better there and smoother! Winks reef probably starts at 40deg angle and runs about 10 down of that! Where jbay is more like 15deg down to 170deg making it much more performancey and giving it a more top to bottom attack approach! So while they waves can be compered in looks they are much different in the way they can be surfed.

Real tough crowd. Margo wasn't surfing 2 ft winki in his clips (and not many surfers are on Margo's level).
The first minute where he's on his step up and the waves have a bit more grunt show he can draw out a nice bottom turn to top turn carve.

Bit bloody harsh on the kid. Looks like plenty of the clips were filmed at high tide and a westerly blowing. If anyone deserves criticism it the cameraman. Get your finger off the lens, stop shooting through the winki judging shed's posts, and FFS would it be too hard to get another angle going. Get your lazy arse down the stairs.
And one more thing, if you can't duck dive and don't look left, don't farken surf winki. That is all.

And a couple of slab trips down south to shut the critics mouths! Or maybe a couple of those reefs I know on the south coast of NSW! 5 seen him do other airs with grabs! More of them 6 his airs from the water angle watching behide are fucking huge! 7 I'm fucking bord of watching the same old pros! Someone new is refreshing. 8 who here has seen a clip of him before or watched him live?9 I watched the wsl pros and surfed with them at 2 -3ft rincon this year!

Further to Spidermonkeys' comment; Not only his style that's jarringly arrogant! Saw the lead up to old mate burning him at 01:01. CR paddles out, directly to the peak where others sit shivering, waiting, and paddles directly into the first wave that appears at Uppers. Old mate having none of it!
As for the nature of Winki; it's not about combos, punts, blah, blah , blah. It's about laying some rail and driving, driving, driving. The transfer of energy from wave through board to body indescribable & purely addictive. Simple as that.

Bam my friend just sit down, take a big breath, and realise that not everyone loves CR's surfing as much as you.
Comparing it to WSL standard is just nonsense.

Ok smart arse! Tell me a town in Australia with a local surfer of his age in the last year that's surfs as good and also one more know surfer! Stick with the east coast and vic as I'm pretty Dialed into the smaller coastal town rippers. Make it 18-25year age group!

Different paths! Beirke is becoming the Australian Mark Healy. And although Russell rips in all waves I think his focus on big stuff takes a bit away from his small wave focus! I haven't seen Cody in big nasty shit yet! But I'm sure some meaty sessions have gone down down south! Might be a good idea one swell to head to the island to that wave for a few pics! So I'm still saying Cody for power and height in airs at the moment!

CR's good at local level , you are dialed in at local level and that's all , the peanut gallery here is not , as we always have news/videos relative to global surfing and to call someone a smartarse because he tells you to chill , is pretty embarrassing for you and therefore your opinion starts lacking credibility , except for talking and trying to justify how good he is !

for a guy who goes left at uppers , seems that airs are your holy grail , as you can't tell the difference between a man turn ie , rail buried to the nose and a pivot/check turn , where you use only 50% of your rail.

The turn on the second to last wave was pretty sick but the arms, back foot positioning, the waves chosen for the edit, the shoot angle and the song all seemed to work against CR in this one.

Disagree on the hand placement that's what makes it sick! Now you are right about one thing though.. If the camera had of got that one from the beach at uppers looking down it would have looked crazy! There is a turn Dane does in sampler or excerpt that very similar but Dane does his on a section with wall left ahead! Where Cody did his on a oncoming left! I am analysing the turn not the sufers so don't start making "total" surfer comparison's.

I actually think that a smaller back fin would be good for those lefts off uppers and then you can do a girly punt onto the reef!

Bambam101's picture
Bambam101's picture
Bambam101 Thursday, 1 Jun 2017 at 5:06pm

Parko isperformance. Is world most fluent and effortless surfers, and his fin needs to follow those characteristics. The basis of this template has been refined by Joel and shaper over the years and has now been carefully integrated into both fin systems. Now with a slightly smaller back fin that allows for quick release and wider based front fins delivering extreme drive this combination is limitless in performance now I ment jack freestone also rides center fin small or did

I have found by placing my deck grip a bit further forward than usual, I can over step the rear stop when needed. Fatty waves need a little more rail to rail to get you fanging.

That's when my foot is adjusting forward of the stop and pushing hard with heel or toes. Not to sound like a know it all, but the real secrets are in knowing when to shift your rear foot pre turn. I think surfing is a constant learning curve and you can learn a lot by asking the right people or by just watching Taylor Knox or Hoyo.

The kid might be a good surfer but that whole clip was crap..if i wanted to be a pro or get some sponnos i wouldnt put that out on the net..but hey its probably best to let it slide instead of dragging it out on the most popular surf website in oz now aint it? ....fuck who was that last local ripper khai adams vid on here..or scott dennis..then compare cody robinsons..no contest

I'm satisfied with what I have set out to achieve here!
You will notices if you can read I have written "rival" as in I have surfed in the water with him a bit lately and you could call his surfing slightly intimidating!
That's how I judge a good surfer if there's other rippers in the water that don't turn around and watch him on a wave,or there form suddenly collapses or someone gets out of the water that can surf when someone of superior surfing standed gets in the water! You know psychology they are scared of there surfing!
I have seen this with him and he is a level above a "local ripper" so there!
Also there are hundreds of kooks that a critical of surf clips and most of the critics can't even complete a real cutback let alone a combo or a air!
So your crying means zipp unless you can prove to him your capable of doing that turn ! Other wise from a realistic point of view you don't know what your talking about!
There is barly a clip that gets put online these days thay doesn't get bagged by a bunch of tallpoppy retards!
And more often than not there the ones who got out of the water with there tail bettween there legs when he landed a 8 ft air out into the flats right in your face!

Bam what are you on about, don't even try and compare him to ct surfers he's miles off them. Apart from the first couple waves it's a shit clip how can you even try and defend it just small airs over and over. Shut up and jog on your opinion is shithouse

Swellnet Pro membership provides you access to the long range forecasts and ad-free surfcams. Not a unrestricted platform to carry on like an idiot (you can do that for free, though you'll still be at the risk of being banned).

So, theoretically speaking I could block you from commenting and you'd still be getting what you paid for.

But, we can only block people in their entirety - we don't have a way of blocking subscribers from commenting, but still accessing the surf reports/surfcams (and I can't be arsed getting our developers to work a way around it, as this is an unusual case).

So, I have refunded the $1 you paid for your trial subscription four days ago, and banned your account.

Apologies to all who had to endure this comment section. Was mildy amusing for the first few hours, but quickly descended into a farce. Hopefully Cody sees the bright side of things too.
