Having seen the chatter in the Bali thread, I think this topic needs it's own forum. Discuss this assault, and any others you wish

If JP the Brazzo has been such a cnut in Bali - Ulu and Padang for so long why the Fk havent the Indo boys sorted him ...im thinking Sanur Boys and there Violence....What you reckon Supa...Bashed in one Session carrying on like a cnut over East Coast...Machete Cut to the Achilles or dropped off by boat in the Middle of the Lombok straight..

JP comes across as the type of bloke that only has a go at women and children, with locals he would be all smiles and high fives . If that left is the same one I’m thinking of , it got taken over by italians years ago who claim it as their own private break . Pretty funny as they are old kooks with big attitudes. Fun little wave but hardly worth punching on over .

What’s the best punishment for this JP grub?

Some more comments on Instagram from neighbours saying they hear him beat his new girl weekly.

He seems like the worst kind of human.

A solid flogging then a 2 year stint at Hotel K seems appropriate

The photo’s of his exs face from 2018-2019 are pretty bad. Hospitalised with head trauma. Also run out of his home town by the sounds of things.

What also I find amusing is they where both touting themselves as”Professional surfers”. I’d be cautious of anyone “identifying” as a pro surfer. Geez! Work dodgers in reality

Beating up your girlfriend I cannot comprehend, even though it happens. Special breed of scumbag I guess, but not wishing violence on this pathetic human. Put him in a cell and then fuck him back off to Brazil. His life is ruined now, people know who and what he is ..

Just when you think you've heard it all, there are apparently reports that he also set fire to the ex-girlfriends dog.

Skeptical.

Maybe hotdog was lost in the translation somewhere there.

Who‘d do that?

This blokes about to lose his livelihood let alone his lifestyle for the forseeable future. As for punishment, that's a pretty good start.

The outrage seems overly amplified…because it’s a female getting hit. Surfer hypocrisy is hilarious as violence is accepted and encouraged and laughed at in some locations.

He’s opened his Instagram account.

Says he’s safe in Bali because the residents love him and is known as one of the best surfers on the Island.

It’s clear he has mental issues

Udo. I like your latter recommendation for that Brazzo. Nobody’s surviving being dropped in the middle of the Lombok Strait, he’d become a lead sinker
within 40 minutes, all those vortices would eventually send him under, for good. AW

It's unbelievable that a guy can hit a random girl in the surf, he should be deported ASAP if he isnt he is paying somebody and in that case i hope his life in Bali is ruined and he gets a regular dose of his own medicine.

I saw Jonny boy Gomes chimed in on the original Insta post about sending him to Hawaii for some justice.
Did JBG belt a female Ozzie surfer in the water?

Agree with Indo on this one, if it had happened here and that footage emerged it would be on A Current Affair and the guy would be fronting a Magistrate and probably some jail time before he was deported, never to return. Different world over there.
Violence against women is intolerable, in any situation, but violence in the line up is part of surfing culture, a part that gets glossed over by the merchandisers and the WSL wall of positivity that gets sold to the mainstream to move product and get clicks. Even Hollywood acknowledged it when it has dipped it's toes into surfing. The Blackshorts featured in North Shore, Keanu got punched out in Point Break and had that beach fight with Anthony Kiedis and Vince Klyn where Swayze showed up and went all Roadhouse on them, John Milius included the Enforcer character based on Ray Kunze in Big Wednesday.
It's a part of the sport, localism, violence. Always been there, During the revival era the original Hui Nalu at Waikiki was formed out of local resentment in part, Duke was a founding member. You can even trace it back to the ancient sport and kapu. It was there when the Pros started the tour and Rabbit wrote 'Bustin' Down the Door' which should have been subtitled 'Bustin' my teeth down my throat', We've had the Hui, the Wolf Pak, the Bra Boys, the White Shirts at J Bay. California is storied in it. Every beach has history. Some guys have built careers around it, like JBG. If you surf long enough you've seen it, been it one way or the other. It's sad, but often deemed necessary to preserve local wave counts or prevent danger in the line up, or payback for kooks. Human nature.
This incident is totally wrong and an extreme example, sucker punching a girl, who by the well understood rules, was in the right, but it's not a surprise given what the Butik has become. Perhaps it has come to light at an opportune time considering Steve's article on his observations surfing the Pass with a new breed of leashless female mal riders, sold a dream that comes with a dark side that they seem unaware of. The new breed of surfer needs to know and understand it, because it is not going away, it's only going to get worse. The only way to avoid it is to avoid it, avoid the super crowded line ups, know the rules and play by them, show patience, give away waves instead of just taking them because you can, respect the established locals, and wear a fucking legrope.

Seems always these days it's the kook doing the dropping in, or the snaking, that gets violent.

Deservedly, this bloke is got this month (or maybe only week's) title of most hated surfer. Unfortunately I feel there's many more unrecorded cases on a daily basis.

Fortunately the wozzle has the answer.

"The growth and the explosion of the sport, with the firepower we have with our surfers is something that the sport has never seen. And our job as the WSL is really simple – to grow and create the world’s largest platform for professional surfing.”

The secret wozzle plan is to push crowds to the point we give up on the selfish "my wave" concept and learn to share - most waves could manage 3 to 4 riders if we all stopped that silly turning stuff.

Elo does not turn his SUP and he is the future.

Great post Adam. It is what it is, you can't wish it away and then just drop in on people repeatedly.
The presence of a code of rules, respect and enforcement stops much of the violence.

Chatting to a little grommy I'd never met the other day, friendly kid. Wave of the day came straight to me, I had priority, but I called him into it and he made a nice little drainer. He came out so stoked, paddled off to his dad on the next bank over raving about it and how I hooted him into it.

Made his day. Made mine too.

You'd fit right in at my local Sprout.
Thanks udo for posting the Grit link, great call-out of onlookers, comments on localism/line-up regulators, and I hadn't realised 'Charlie' was also female.

adam12 and sprout’s comments above are very good.

Just an additional comment that aligns with the lost war story about the Pass.

The most serious injuries I’ve suffered in the surf have come from other surfers not giving a darn about the potential to harm others, not careless kook-like but deliberate decisions to recklessly put others at risk: dropping in, padding too deep and letting their boards go etc. I had my calf ripped open by a guy who deliberately ran over my leg at the Pass and spent weeks in bed followed by months of physio after getting a mal catapulted into my lower back. Both deliberate acts so violence in the surf comes in many forms. Oddly it’s meant to be fun

Bit of a lame excuse really thinking she was bloke. He could have at least used the "I thought you were my boyfriend" excuse!! Shows the lack of brain cells this moron has thinking his mistaken gender identification was his reason for throwing the punch in the first place. Sounds like that backtrack excuse went nowhere.
