The Reef Hawaiian Pro: Day One
The swell subsided but the performances didn't.
These surf stories just write themselves, eh? Big waves, clutch performances, throw in a Clash of the Legends heat (where one legend didn't even catch a wave!), and there's little this sports writer has to do whilst covering the Reef Hawaiian Pro. Job done, clock off.
Fortunately someone elaborated on the small swell big performance narrative, and someone else took a few photos. Click below for the photo viewer.
