An image that stirs the loins of WSL CEO Paul Speaker!
Do you remember the surf posters that hung on your wall as a child? Or, if you are slightly younger, the ones that electronically papered the background of your computer screen? Which image was your favorite? Andy Irons ferociously carving perhaps? Kelly Slater flying like a bird? I’ve shared before that mine was Tom Curren wrapping around so smooth on a Maurice Cole. Of course you know the one.
What about World Surf League CEO Paul Speaker? What poster is on his wall? I think maybe this one!

That right there is NFL quarterback Tom Brady. He plays for the New England Patriots and is married to Kelly Slater’s ex-girlfriend Gisele Bundchen. And look at that pro football power stance! Look at those muscly arms! Look at that no nonsense expression! I think in maybe ten years when 30 million corn fed Americans feast on pro surfing this ride will be a 10.
What is going on with his feet?
my poster was TOM CARROLL SNAP AT PIPE, and i have to buy the page from a friend because i didnt have money to buy the magazine !
What has he seen there that’s making him want to get the fuck back to where he came from? He’s ready to jump back in to the other direction
His missus won the genetic lottery apparently. (Presumably the prize was just the genes that control looking presentable while walking in an acceptably straight line and didn’t include the ones that allow you to surf without looking like you’re about to take a shit in an overflowing Hossegor carpark squat toilet)
Not cool bro!
oh, I’m glad to be here and see that before negs trim it out…
Circa 2004
I don’t think Tom Brady will excel in surfing. Not because of his stance, but because it’s kind of hard to cheat in competitive surfing. #Tom’sDeflatedBalls
He Is a goofy foot at heart but is fighting it for some reason
Is the photo of Kelly showing him in the process of attempting to design an even worse board for Bells than he rode at Snapper? Which will be difficult, hence the serious, focused look on his face.
I’m Kelly’s second in design, ever seen the dick board, by me not dan Mann,i used it for other applications. Kinds like football vs soccer
Talking bout “witnessing the future of the WSL”. Just checked Bells event site, looking for forcasts. saw the story “of Legends…. bulshit bullshit etc etc” The WSL has comments on there from 708 days ago!!! No wonder they discuss the viewership as being in the millions as they just keep re counting all the same posts. Fuck me it is an amateur act there
This looks photoshopped.
So stylish! It’s refreshing to see that not everybody has resorted to “functional” stances! This picture has caused me to revise my All-Time Stylish Surfer Power Rankings:
1. ’90 Curren
2. ’96 Machado
3. ’16 Brady
….
129337. ’08 Jihad Khodr
….
Dead last. Pick a year Yadin Nicol
fuckin’ right.
Sad but true. Why did he ever leave WA?
Whoa, Jihad Khodr reference… Impressive.
You fuckers will rue the day you bash the one the only Tom Brady and Gizzy. We are the new surfing future, couture boards and all!
Still a bigger wave and a better ride than most of the clowns on the Stab and Fantasy Surfer.
“The Stab”
Now I don’t even want to edit it. Can we just call it The Stab from now on?
Yes, yes we can The Burnsy.
RIP stab
heard his WSL jersey is top seller
Under Armour: for white people who think Nike & Adidas are “Too Urban.”
A played toss with some flynn Novak guy, and a few other brazi’s who were rocking the UA. UA for Brazilians and flynn.
Guess that makes you a tosser, eh Tom.
No,I mean yea,shutup!
He’s innovating with that stance. I’ve never seen someone ride the rails so beautifully. In all seriousness he actually looks quite a lot like Gabriel in terms of the arm positioning.
Are we all going to ignore Kelly staring at a on-screen photo of Kelly?
I’d like to think that was him reading COTW and having a bat.
Stab comments on Sterling Spencers ‘Gold’
Just making his blood absolutely boil.
Bro I’m buying 8 new Christensen’s from him right now only cost me 20 gs’s
Tom is a fucking boss and every man in the world is lying if they say they are not in some way jealous….. He is a fucking boss
Exept me, cuz I’m Tom mo’fuckin’ Brady
I demand to know the literage! Where does he stack up to Clint-E’s son?
Spoiler alert: it’s a surftech longboard.
That’s not a dimension!
I make the big E look like a donkey, but only when it’s over thigh high after that, he’s in to this whole ” balance ” and ” style” thing. I just go balls to the wall charging! (See photo above)
after several falls, he ordered his board caddie to deflate his board by a few psi.
Wait what is going on here? Is he hanging heels?!
Have you ever seen this maneuver? No this is the new “disco floater” watch out mason, Tom “steezy” brady will deflate you!
i think he’s regular and just Gronking out, both heels on the rail, you know he bogged rail .5 milliseconds after this shot
Look how scared he is!
Scared? He’s looking for you so he can run you over and then do a touchdown dance!
You surf in Under Armour triathlon wetties don’t ya Chas?
I wish. Do you have a number? Could we get them to advertise here?
Call flynn.
Do you get to choose who advertises here? Because currently Dell computers is being advertised which is kinda funny. I’m glad it’s not that targeted shit because I’m sick to death of seeing weight loss, dating and erectile dysfunction sites in my side bar.
Don’t you only get those pop-ups when you actually search them???
Yes.
haha perfect I need some better pop ups myself
Wiggoly’s last encounter with a hooker was the real ” deflate gate “
Is she still a hooker if you live in her home and refuse to pay? Where is Aristotle?
Only if she’s slightly over weight and you have an opiod problem? Again a proposed question.
I thought it was a good thing to be punching above your weight and yes I have a prescription drug problem among others. In truth the Princess of Ubatuba is far too good for me and I will rue the day she finds out I’ve been writing this bullshit instead of finding a better job.
Nah bro,horsefaces man voices and the taste of Kelly’s Dick,I’m going to sell the formula of what it tastes like to the WSL, you think fanning jerseys flew ” like liquor in the Rodney king riots” wait until ” Kelly’s Dick by Kuerig
I’ve never heard Jizzelle utter a single syllable…. does she have a man voice? That must be quite disappointing for you. The WSL have been trying to manufacture an edible and synthetic version of Kelly’s pre-cum since the ASP days. You’re onto a winner mate.
Completely different Aristotle question, I wonder if Kelly ever found a wig he likes,I would pay money for that….
I’ve been sitting in my office at work and actually getting paid to write bullshit, so onto a good thing
I was thinking about that buoyant bikini girl myself!!!
Chas, have you’ve never seen Nick in the flesh? He’s been run over repeatedly.
Dude he is literally rigid with terror.
