One CT heat plus loads of freesurfing sessions and land antics in between. Watch it all if you're a JJF junkie, or skip between sessions to admire the most effortless tail-free surfing you'll see all week. Light and loose and understated, it's easy to lose sight that this is essentially a B-roll of John's waves. If not for clips like this, they'd die a lonely death on the cutting room floor.

The best. Will a CT champ ever win an Eddie or big wave contest the same yr ever again?

I reckon it was that one heat at sunset where his board broke that cost him the chance at the final five.......
How did he not make the cut ?

Maybe. Matters not though, with the current schedule and finals day at trestles, hard to see another title.

It's all geared for the Sth American legs of the tour....they haven't woken up to the WSL bullshit yet..too busy gloating over horrendous judging decisions that just by "Co incidence" generally fall the way of the Brazzo's.....Rotations are a snooze fest. G-land gets overlooked in favour of a shitty Sth American close out beachies...The whole shebang is a yawnfest clusterfuck!!
