If you printed all these out and then approached each surfer when they bombed out in the first round and read it to them as they walked to the showers....Drew would flog ya! Rod Johnson-Cox 02/20/2009 04:54 AM Yeah Donkey! Way to stick it to the man! I agree; with last years overhyped rookie debuts of Dane and Jordy, everyone collectively sighed with disappointment. This year the semi hype is owned by Curran and Barca; maybe they or the rest of these working class heroes can pull a trump or two and shake it up. All hail the Septic Tanks! All set to spank and cranks their wanks on all you rhyming crybaby arsehole prisoner penal islander koala suckers! BOOM! At least your women can perform under p. Jonny 02/19/2009 09:31 AM I know I should probably know this for alot of the guys, but maybe include where these guys are from? CP 02/19/2009 05:10 AM Weare will dominate! fernantxo 02/18/2009 10:12 AM LS, in the least-talented surfing writers list, you would be # 1, 2 and 3 altoghether. your a donk 02/17/2009 07:17 PM you suck at writing you should see natahniel surf you wouldnt know a good surfer if you saw one sam 02/17/2009 05:08 PM read Lewis' blog. good stuff. Rob 02/17/2009 03:19 PM Pretty mundane crew. The trouble is that watching videos makes you think their is an endless supply of talent, but many (if not most) cannot pull their moves consistently under the pressure of a heat, which is why I think the WCT guys are the best surfers in the world. Plus, a trick needs to flow regardless of difficulty. Judges must start deducting points for ugly surfing.

Most writers are so starstruck by their idols and/or so scared of the industry that they write as if every turn is the best ever and that every surfer has a perfect character. Andrew Barton 02/17/2009 02:44 PM   * PREMIUM MEMBER - Real Name lewis stop ruining every article you write wtf is with this garbage bashing of everyone Bod Barb 02/17/2009 02:02 PM Hey Nod, did you realize that you actually took the "scared critic" line directly out of LS' article? I agree with everything this guy has written. Great article, pulls few punches, and is highly entertaining. If only some other surf journo's would grow sack and then grow bigger balls (you need the extra space beforehand, believe me). robby adams 02/17/2009 12:59 PM   * PREMIUM MEMBER - Real Name whoa...that was brutal, but true. Hugh 02/17/2009 11:37 AM Go Davey, Greg and Jordy. Time to waste the seppo and aussie wankers. Lewis, well balanced piece there bru! Nod Narb 02/17/2009 09:20 AM Lewis, one of your better posts. You really pussed out on Barca's critique though. You're just another scared critic.
