Come, watch, comment, on Kelly Slater's synchronised popping in last heat of death round. | Photo: WSL

Open Thread: Comment live, Margaret River Pro Elimination Round!

Let's have fun!

It’s live, again, and ooooee! I don’t know what happened today. Oh, wait. I do. Lots of driving. Lots and lots of sitting in traffic but enough about that. Let’s get together and watch the men’s elimination round. The most exciting… however many minutes in surfing.

Heat 1: Wade Carmichael v Jack Freestone v Jack Robinson

Heat 2: Michel B. v. Leo F. v Jacob Willcox

Heat 3: Wil.i.an Cardoso v Yago D v Fred Morais

Heat 4 Ace Buchan v Kelly Slater v Caio Ibelli

Jack Robinson is in the water now. Pottz is imagining about heats in The Box. Nobody is giving too much away.

The staircase has microphones on it.

Niki Van D. is tapping into herself.

Pottz just said, “Bring back the biff, I reckon.” and my feed went dead.

Did they cut Pottz’s mic for inciting violence?

Much to discuss.

Let’s do this!

Fuck, plenty of that in Oz as well.

And the vocal fry thing that chicks do is one of the most horrible trends ever.

big spoiler, silvana sits through the heat with priority, gets caught inside aplenty by major sets, fail to score a backup four whilst letting the winning wave slip onto cc’s lap in the final exchange… 🤦‍♂️

Has a single useful piece of information ever been brought to life by the Telestrator? It’s always – here’s where they’re looking, here’s a more vertical turn, here’s a less vertical turn…. it would be worth a commentator’s career to draw a knob and earn a place in infamy and BG’s hearts.

No doubt it’s been mentioned before in this thread, but do they get to, like, a week or so before the Margies comp and realise they haven’t done any new West Oz promos (like they swore they would every year for the last decade) then shrug, wheel out the old ones again, and swear to update ’em next year this time fer sure?
