Surf Movie Sunday

Nothing decent last week and slim pickings again. This is the best of a bad bunch.

Parko's world champion video





Super slow mo of Jaws. Makes it look easy enough for mortals to surf.




Now that Kelly is part of the Go-Pro team expect more of these videos.




Bit of Yank action.

Round three

Parko in the water at the moment hoping to get through and closer to a world championship. He is up against Pipe local Kalani Chapman.

In the first three heats of round three all the highest seeded pros have lost, including John Florence and Julian Wilson. Slater takes on Billy Kemper in heat nine, while Taj has Yadin in heat 10 and Mick Fanning has the hard task of Shane Dorian in the last heat of the round.

Conditions are pretty good but a bit smaller than yesterday. There is some wind messing the lefts a little.

Surf Movie Sunday

Missed out last week due to poor selection and this week isn't much better but here we go.

First the local stuff.

A grom deep at North Point.




The Taj footage for the week.




Aussie Anthony Walsh shows just how clear the water is a Chopes.




Some Indo with Julian Wilson.




And finally some high performance longboarding for those with bigger taste.


Pipe Masters

The Billabong Pipe Masters is on with round one in good conditions. Plenty of big sneaker sets landing on the competitors heads.

The double heat format is being used which gives plenty of action. The current rumour is that the swell will hang around and the event will run three days straight.

Parko and Slater don't surf in round one or two. From the WA point of view Taj starts in round three and Yadin has won his heat. He'll meet Matt Wilkinson in round two.

The action is online and on FuelTV but you have to press the red button to get away from the UFC.
