How many hawaiians in this comp Eddie Roth ?
caml, 1415058135
Good to see j mitchells earned himself a spot on the list .
stunet, 1415058240
Nah, he's been invited the last two years.
zenagain, 1415058327
I can't actually ever recall Fast Eddie being notable for his surfing. He certainly holds some sway though.
Flores again?
ACB__, 1415058527

Coops70, 1415067163
Thought Mark Mathews holds more cred than john Flores, bit surprising
caml, 1415068509
John flores ? Timmy corrall ?
Sheepdog, 1415071037
Does anyone know if kong ever surfed in the event?
stunet, 1415071588
Dunno if he surfed in it but was definetely an invite for a few years. Check photos here from 1988 ceremony:
Sheepdog, 1415072073
Thanks, stu....
Sheepdog, 1415072227
Man, the way Tom Curren was surfing at Jbay, I reckon he'd go ok if invited
stunet, 1415072453
Good question. Don't recognise that fella.
udo, 1415072506
Look at the front fin placement on Buzzys board.......long way forward ?
EDIT: maybe not Lairds much the same distance.
udo, 1415072578

fraser-gordon, 1415079220
I think the guy's name is Mick Bourne.
caml, 1415079523
Udo gerry lopez shaped boards have always had the fins a fair long way up . Its not that unusual . Nowadays you will see fins on guns placed between 15-18 inches up im pretty sure thats standard

ant shannon, 1415222236
btw, thats one of the best surf comp posters i've seen.
thermalben, 1415227065
Agreed Ant. Would make a good t-shirt too (which I suppose is one of their goals anyway!).
mick-free, 1415243541
Yep I got out of the water and took it. Always a good time to have a break as he gets his fair share haha. Bumped into him on mainland Monday night was pretty sore. He is just like a kid who can't help himself tried to take push it too far on the inside.
It looks like its pumping in SA today and tomorrow (though windy).
caml, 1415249587
Mick your pic of kelly is on every surf site there is ? Even the king K injured himself trying to film & surf at the same time . God help the rest of us then .

Camel, funny back story Kelly only got two waves Monday hurting himself on the last. I think apart from Steve Jones no one got any shots. I think that's why Taylor Steele ripped my photo from Swellnets fb feed and posted it as his.. Tracks then picked up the photo and sent it into cyber space and got picked up everywhere. Somehow Surfer Magazine with a much higher level of integrity found my instagram feed and published it in full. I couldn't care less but pissed that someone like Taylor Steele legend cinematographer would rip of essentially SN photo. (I didn't give it to anyone else). Coincidently Taylor uses Swellnet forecasts, and instead of going to skeleton Bay SN sent Taylor and Mick to East Africa for Micks movie last year. I'm not a photog and only take photos between sessions or before I go out but I'm sure pissed at Taylor Steele.
mick-free, 1415256647
Sorry to change thread topic too. In the tradition of letting your actions do the talking I reckon Paul Morgan for the Eddie.
mick-free, 1415260256
Thanks Udo,but I'm picking he won't respond anyway.
caml, 1415266334
Mick F interesting story thanks for enlightening us about that . & yeah morgo could give some of the eddie invites a run .
udo, 1415267273

Cheers Craig.
Taylor Steele, you dirty dog. You of all people should know better.
udo, 1415304873
Taylor has removed the pic from his instagram page.
His surname suits him .
zenagain, 1415312122
Saw that too Udo, but Tracks is still crediting it to him.
udo, 1415312472
StabMag also still crediting the pic to Taylor Steele.
