Hawaii
Ugh. (Dig the crazy sponger near the end.)
Oh, we all know that Kelly Slater won the Pipe Masters in 2009. But, shit, he was the best. How can you even dispute it? When perfection occurs, it is time to bow down. Check this out:
So, you are in a heat at Lower’s with some 15-year old chick from Hawaii. You will dominate and advance. Oh, her name is Carissa Moore. Maybe you should be afraid . . . be vary afraid.
Maybe the youth don’t really understand honor and tradition as much as they claim to, but it is nice that they are trying. After they face tragedy and death in their own lives, the power of the Eddie will truly resonate with them.
Mr. Patacchia seems like a genuinely nice guy who loves his dad and putters in the yard. Oh yeah, and he is a word class ripper who gets deep in huge barrels.
The latest ripper from Hawaii. Though his body looks like a brick, judging by his airs, he is light on his surfboard.
