“Of all events that Gabriel was harmed, this is the worst."
Do you think Gabriel Medina’s round three loss at the Hurley Pro was the best thing to happen on tour this year, beating even Slater’s tear-jerky Tahiti triumph?
It sure did a lot of good things for BeachGrit traffic, numbers I hadn’t seen since the Fanning-Jew thing back at Stab.
Whatever way you swung, bad call, good call, everyone had an opinion.
Including Gabriel’s step-daddy Charles who just starred in a piece-to-camera in which he calls the WSL judges, according to our translator Tomothy Puñales, a “dictatorship.”
Puñales, the translator writes:
Carlinhos Rogério Serrano Da Silva Neto, mostly known as Charles, is Gabriel Medina’s stepfather and omnipresent surfing coach. He was really upset with the Hurley Pro’s judges decision because he is convinced they are raping his garoto. He believes that if the judges don’t do that, he will win everything.
After calling his lawyers and firmly ordering them to chase all those disrespectful assholes who had dared to bully Gabi on the net, he faces this cellphone camera and tells the world his truth:
“I know complaining sucks, but of all events that Gabriel was harmed, this is the worst. Gabriel rode the best wave of the day, that it was also the best of the contest. But, sadly, judges gave him a low score that he couldnt reverse.
“I feel sad because they are clearly locking Gabriel. Just imagine if athletics would lock Usain Bolt. Or if swimming would lock Michael Phelps. It’s not cool. The kid born for the sport. He goes there and win, but sadly, five people here define what is good and what is bad. Its like a dictatorship.”
Lock means, according to my Portuguese-speaking pals, “SCREW, or FUCK…. like block his career, is a slang for brazilians, literally translated LOCKED like when the brakes of your car lock , is like stack somebody else career.”

Rasta, if you were in Brazil, do you know what i would do with you? Eu ia arrastar sua cara no asfalto seu rasta de merda.
dictatorship…..that’s funny coming from a dick potato chip
Dear ganja man, there is no such thing as “rules of the line up”? Who wrote them? muhamad? JC? GEneva convention? I’m telling you like it is. If you’re a kook or an average surfer, you’re not going to have much fun around brazzos. That’s all. Go find another lesser peak and be merry becaise life is too short.
plus, she’s on the Goldie, not turning up in Portugal
Equal parts narcissism and entitlement are a potent brew. Gabby/Charlie is wasted on surfing – it should be ruling Brazil.
hopefully he’ll chop his dick off…
I’m pretty sure that type of BOSS is only found in office scenes filmed somewhere in the San Fernando Valley with chicks whose dads abused them and/or have stimulant dependencies. They generally don’t correspond to real life.
Thank God that this guy (Charlie) is not a judge. Each fart from the garoto (Gab) would be another massive score, while overlooking power surfing and other essential qualities of good surfing. See ya Medinas.
Total audience for the final: 3 Saffas, a handful of aussies who remember who Joel is and the cleaning boys.
better than 200 million broke fucks any day
Who’s really broke ignorant minion?
what, you live in Monaco and back Brasil that hard?
Thanks, i love you too.
You’d have to ask Tio Sam about that one.
1. You’re a dumbass if you believe everything you read on the internet; 2. Calling people names on the internet is 95% of the time per se idiotic (sometimes polite descriptions of social/mental deficiencies are warranted).
She is as malicious as generous is your wallet, rapaz.
America’s entitlement mentality bleeding over to surfing? and even into Brazil? Fix it step-daddy! Fix it!
I’m so sick of people complaining about people complaining.
I’d say cuntocracy
Even if he did he screwed over on purpose this is just a whole new level of cry baby. I mean wow I honestly hope the dude never wins another heat.
nah, it seems to me like he lives in Brazil, 2016.
Hi
Mr Cholo: as Tp don’t like Medina, obiusly you love it…..This just proved is not a dictatorship as Charly saids, you can love and Tp can hate (don’t like Medinas dishonest surf)
Anyway, Charly said “Brecar” “frenar” “Block”, Lock, same shit !!!!
What you are doing is trying to confuse english spokens, break, lock, don’t change the “saying” of Charly. And Medina and Charly dont need Tp to be hated, they already idiot enough, Tp just giving a point of view and in my concern is very valid, but i respect you be disagree. If you dont like beach grit go read Inertia, they are “WARM”, “Morno” “Tibios”, more LEVES. BRIGADO.
