it's funny when they let the "smaller" waves go by.. I am thinking to myself, "that would be the wave of my life."

@travelmidwest 3 года назад

Yeah, a "small wave" is like 10 feet tall

@monkeman220 3 года назад

Hahaha so true and same for me!

@drewfinn2 3 года назад

the weird part is that with how dialed in their boards are and how long they’ve been surfing these types of waves, you adapt and start to get used to it. in two trips to Hawaii I eventually caught a friendly 9ft wave on an 8’0 beak nose gun at the Bay. that’s being on that island for 20 days total. so much of it is location, timing and athletic ability...many people have it-just not like KS n JJF tho haha...

I think if John John surfed his first wave at the end he would’ve gotten a 10. I don’t even know how you judge those waves. It’s impossible to say they got it wrong because it’s all an opinion at that point.

@shacktime 4 года назад

Slater’s high line on his first wave was the point of difference. But I’m i agreement. Judging this heat would be a nightmare. This could have gone either way. Easily.

@SouthernBix 4 года назад

IMO: The nightmare is when they're clearly biased, this was well judged (not as clearly biased as a lot of regional or sponsored events can be). Judges get a lot of looks (replays) if they choose (and are hopefully not too influenced by a head judge (who can be biased)). If you watch those first 2 rides over (say 5 views) each, you'll see Slater's drop slightly more technical without hand, control, smoothness, etc., high line in the barrel as Pots mentions, and his exit is more confident, but a bit of a claim at the end (where JJF is more in a defensive stature). Easy 10 for Slater, could have been a lower 9 or high 8 for JJF (and I'm a super fan of JJF). 1st waves are often scored low, so they both got high scores IMO.

@sunchaser9726 2 года назад

After watching Kelly's 10 point ride over 100 times I have concluded, it was a true miracle sent by a true magician of tube riding. Hats off to the champion 🏆 taking nothing away from John who pulls a rabbit out of the hat to even the score but only one surfer can advance. So intense for the judges when every wave is a 10 but I think they eventually get it right in the end even when only the width of a hair is the difference

@HeinekenLasse 4 года назад

@@existinguser7788 comparing to other 10s in the contest isn’t really relevant. Conditions can change from one heat to the next. When both waves could be potential 10s back to back like that, but Slater’s very clearly shows more difficulty by dropping in with no rail grab and being that high on the face inside the barrel and around the foam ball, they have to score his higher.

@southvaron757 Год назад

My issue is with judge #2, who felt it necessary to leave his mark, on the "best heat ever". While being one of the two judges who scored JJ's last bomb, as only a 9.8, he was also the only judge to score JJ's first wave under 9.9, which one judge gave a 10. If JJ's first, &/or last ones, were only 9.8's in Judge 2's book; then exactly how could Kelly's first wave be perfect?
