Good News All Oz Chix survived Day 3
Bad News (All) US & Aust surfers battle it out in R/C

Norm'guide:
New messy swell gives all an even chance.
World's best surfers are scrapping it out in R/C
Men would be wise to take note...
Surfing is very competitive...up on WSL standard.
Some WSL competitors are surfing 6 heats/day...
Those with best rides can't buy another.

Great insightful Commentary

kookfactor steps onto the podium-'nother Olympic toke bag. Wait...You get a Salute!

Yeah! For some twisted reason all the best scoring chix end up in the R/C.
R/C is a graveyard for all WSL Top Hot Chix...The claws are out it's cut throat.

Spoilt Pros have got no idea on how to slum it with upstarts in the slop...
(2 OK quick waves) But short heat times leave posh Pros a wave short...it's over!
tbb warns of same deal for Lazy Posh Pro Men...you heard it here 1st @ swellnet.

ISA Womens
https://isasurf.org/wsg/2019/en/live/

Norm'Guide..."Buy me a Pony"

"WSL is #1 Olympic Qualifying platform"...(not any more mate!)
WSL spoilt A-Listers need a training camp just to get up to ISA speed.
Viewers jaws dropped as Hot WSL Pin-Up girls fell from the dart board.

Another wake up call in 1st year of women's well above equal Pay
WSL women surf less heats than men but both surf less than ISA.
WSL Women's Finals combo heat scores are down on previous years.
Despite grooming best swells, ample rest/recovery & longer heat times.

WSL chix were 10mins down, a wave short & all at sea in plain sailing waves.

ISA surf better for free & more heats in one day than an entire WSL month .

Femlins & retired Pros spanked the WSL elite squad & was not funny after day 1.
(Total 13 WSL surfers) v (Best 13 'non' WSL) = 16 'non' WSL finished in Top 26
Only 1 WSL surfer would have survived without generous ISA repechage rounds.

Retired Pros deserve higher Pension Payouts from WSL Pro's glowmesh purse.
Bingo Hall Pro brings all the gromz to the yard...Go Grandma! Go Grandma!

Olympic Qualifying Years/WSL Title is now Trash. Hottest surfers kill for Gold.
Those saying opposite- surf well beneath best in WSL & now too slow for ISA.
tbb has long said this & it took all of 10 minutes for World to shake heads.
WSL Top 10 is now outed as a show pony for Barbies. Go for Gold instead!

World can now plainly see that WSL never represented world's best surfers.
WSL Top 8 Olympic Qualifying clearly denies better less paid women surfers.
Barbie model can not continue if Surfing is to present it's best in France & so on.

tbb made it all up! Surfing elites continue palming out yet more stickerz.

Team Oz -Nikki/Steph/Sally ripped & got so close...swellnet crew are stoked!

Good news for Italo Fans (Stolen passport) Gets 2nd a chance in R/C
https://stabmag.com/news/why-italo-ferreira-might-not-make-it-to-the-oly...

poo-man dodged the copper medal...

Firstly! 20 surf chix go to 2020 Olympic Games
WSL-Top 8 + ISA 2020-Top 6 + ISA 2019-Continental -4 + Pan/Am-1 + Host -1

They dropped a secret at ISA 2019 qualifying that was only outed on comp day.
ISA 2019 ("Top 30") was the new 'cut off' for highest placed 4 Continental Surfers.

NZ Ella finished #29 being the highest in Oceania- (NZ,Fiji, US Samoa, Guam).
'Continental Qualification' covers any/all 'white flag independent nations'.
Folks say it's skewered to give Goat an extra shot-Pan American Games? Not OZ!

Since Ella is competing for NZ then she Qualifies as [P] Olympian.
Either way Ella will always be recorded as 1st Surf Olympian. (aside OZ 1956)
(Top 30) Africa, Asia, Europe also scored gold tickets alongside Ella on same day.
Ella was simply dealt a timely heat that aligned Top 30 bingo card for gold ticket.

Yes! Ella can still lose her gold ticket.
2 NZ women surfers must finish Top 8 WSL or Top 6 ISA 2020 to qualify ahead.

But! Some Pros may double Qualify + Only 2 chix per Nation can Qualify.

Meaning WSL countback...9,10,11,12 etc. becomes the default battleground.
Paige must climb ladder to at least Top 10 to 'scoop' a Gold Ticket + #1 NZ rank.

But guess what! Sponsors will ultimately decide who goes to Olympics!
Positions are decided by National Team heads as weird 'injuries' list start to mount?
No way could tbb lead poo-man thru Sticker world...(Sponsors vs National Pride).
Already injury deals were branded out of place & others will appear as cop outs!

Oz recalls when Stevens was pushed Oops! While stepping down for Thorpie..
http://www.ekathimerini.com/22483/article/ekathimerini/sports/australias...

Norm'guide..."Surfing Olympians are in a league of their own."

Olympics seem to be corrupting every aspect of WSL.
Note surfers voted to change format to 4 eliminations in first 2 rounds?
Equal pay sees women surf less rounds in premium events that pay more.
Women earn a lot more per session & their final/s combo scores are down.
WSL men surf lesser paid Red Bull Airborne,Triple Crown,Heritage Heats...
1st 2019 comp the Women's Winner earned way more than equal per heat.

New Tech affords WSL to leave Base Camp & does so quite often without notice.
Big Wave Tour is out vs Rock'n'Roll Red Bull Airborne & Challenger Xerts in.

Hawaii can't compete in Olympics nor qualify via ISA Pan Am /Oceania entry.
WSL Hawaiians can only qualify as WSL Americans or ISA 2020 Americans.
Naturally Hawaii vs USA Olympic Comp is the main game within WSL rankings.

ISA state WSL surfers & Host must compete in 2019 and/or 2020 / Pan Am
Meaning 1 of 2 for world or 2 of 3 for Americas (re: + Pan Am)
All of this is open & under review.

WSL injury Flags now get waved selectively as Olympic qualifiers draw nearer.
WSL Champs swan Olympic WSL injury Wild Cards over younger, ready competitor
High ranked Men & Women injured surfers flip lesser ISA for golden casket tickets.

ISA crew surf 6x / day for free...WSL are flat out doing that much surfing in a month.
We now openly hear of injured WSL surfers throwing ISA heats to ride out repechage.
Only way a Team can scoop 3 medals is to split up & reunite in final.
Problem being the heats are shorter & waves are less groomed.(WSL meets real world)

Sponsors will soon nudge National Teams to wave thru Hot Shots.
This practice is no stranger to Olympics but sure messes with WSL rankings.

Have ISA nations teamed to rid Pros to promote 2nd string Olympic opponents.
Coincidence that all lowest rank national surfers scored Gold Tickets to Olympics
Who here thinks these deserved surfers will be asked to take one for the Team?

Not sure if Surfing requested all this Olympic Hoopla, but they sure got it!
Careful what you wish for as it may come back to bite you...Welcome to the Club!

Norm'Guide recaps ISA + Aussie's week...
Injuries + R/C have admittedly been used as strategies

This being the only way a team can clean sweep Gold,Silver,Bronze
Only thru R/C can Team also obtain Max team points.

Kelly flushes out the WSL Corona Surfluenza with his pissweak Michelob Strain.

World straightens out & oompa loompas whip up a batch of Olympic Gold Medals!

2021 Tokyo Olympics

If 'Olympic Cycle' is extended by a year then Qualifying cycle would also be extended...right!
You can ask Kelly how that works...

World Govts / WHO / Olympics have enforced a World Travel & Venue lockdown
International Travel ban Levels [ 1- 4 ] Level 3 closes Pools + (Aquatics)
Olympics have also complied 100% & postponed event to mid 2021.

All Watersport Olympians are strictly required by law to be in Quarantine.
Near all Nations ban Swimming / Watercraft etc: (Lakes + Surf + Pools).
A very few Surfing Nations allow restrictive Surfing / Swimming (Oz / US/ Hawaii)
For essential exercise only... strictly not for dedicated Olympic Training purpose.

Olympic Ideal enshrines Sportsmanship above all else...fairness & friendship is all.
All nations agree and all operate from the same page right here & now.

All nations have followed the same WHO directive but One! (Yes! The spoilt brats!)

Team USA can cash splash VIP Pool Parties for swimming, diving & Surfing.
US Olympians care least for fellow humans & are right now cheating to get ahead.

US Olympians never sweated a day, an hour or even a shitty minute in Quarantine.
Also never went a day without pool training disruption...very smooth criminals.

This is a large scale breach of Olympic / WHO / Global Govt Travel bans.
If one dope is bad then a whole Team health directive boycott is far more criminal.
Olympics exampled serious nature in face of extreme danger...(Won't be pretty!)

Once the world wakes up to Team USA cheating...all hell will break loose!
Can you imagine the Chinese dopes...smashing fingers & pointing guitars
As it Stands! Team USA have 1 month up on rest of world & no Athlete depression.

Olympic Swimmer's Depression!
tbb's research found from Russia to NZ ...a sheep dip is Olympic Swimmer's Porn.
Athletes are wading Little Kids Pools...not fuckin' joking. (It's a depressing sight)

Meanwhile only the Prisoners & soon cellmates Team USA...are having pool parties.
Note: WSL (Unsporting Olympic Pipe next a dodgy Olympic training Pool!) #1 Scum!

Olympic Nations have the right to challenge unsporting US participation + Medals.
Crew know that's unlikely...reason why tbb is outing the cheats here & now!

Sure tbb has been a little mean of late but swears it's all for the flakes own good.
Not one of these Olympians will ever enjoy priding such a sickening memento.
They are so lucky, that they get to decide in troubled times. Come clean! Win Fans!
