Only surf Fantasy League with prize!
Fantasy Surfing is in a very poor state of disrepair.
First, last year’s winner of WSL’s Fantasy Surfer was awarded no prize for beating 140,000 other players to become the champion. Not a Zoom call with Elo. Not an invite to Surf Ranch. No congratulatory Instagram post.
Nothing.
Then, Fantasy Surfer tweeted “following the demise of Surfer, Fantasy Surfer has been left high and dry and the site is no longer functioning properly”.
A couple days after, good samaritans fixed the site but said they “are not sure if corporate will supply prizes.”
Sad!
But we got the fix.
The perfect anti-depressive game for these “uncertain times”.
The Surfival League.
Real easy.
No teams.
No tiers.
No budgets.
Just pick one surfer.
They must advance past Round of 32.
If they don’t, you are out for the season.
If they do, you move on to the next event. You can’t pick the same surfer twice.
Last man standing wins the prize.
Yes.
A prize! We’re not leaving you high and dry like the WSL and Surfer Mag (RIP).
The winner will receive a thousand bucks and a custom-shaped surfboard from Panda Surfboards.
All you have to do is Surfive.

You want me to pay for a fantasy game? Man, I’ve been offering prizes since 2018.
Do you accept payment in “I’ll pay you later”?
1st prize = zoom call with elo
2nd prize = two zoom calls with elo
wooden spoon has to listen to 3 hours of Slater conspiracy theories and an hour of David Lee Scales talking about wine.
I’ll sign up later
I wants in, but PayPal ain’t my pal.
I’ll give you a share of my Panda when I win!
Ha! Will that make it a regular short board for me or you then?
I went to sign up but it was like a CIA interrogation, fuk it.
Once again big tech* is discriminating against conservatives.
Maybe it’s the burkha?
what if the silly cunt contracts coronavirus?
just another factor the shrewd gambler will have to take into account. between instagram and youtube it should be easy to see who is and isn’t masking up and gain an edge here.
What have you heard might happen to the tour if that did happen, hypothetically of course
hypothetically it is considered as an individual risk on the same level as all other possible illnesses and injuries. So if you got the Rona and couldn’t go to a contest, tough shit.
in real terms, anyone who tests positive to COVID-19 would have to isolate and test until clear and anyone who’d been in contact with them would have to do the same.
Other sports have pulled this stuff, the WSL will have a full on check list around it but it’s fraught for sure.
Go to sportsbet and put a bunch of cash on the most hygienic and mundane dork on tour. Might be last man’s tucker.
So Ace?
Hahaha. So true. Ace to get three first places on the Australian leg.
Im backin it ..
Ace is out of the latest Pipe draw, so no.
Then so am i.
Then so am i.
Who’s your money on to be the tour Djokovic and start a rebel set up? Or alternatively, who’s gonna ruin it for everyone else?
I don’t think there’s a pro on tour with the brains, will, or gumption to try that.
Opportunity is knocking.. will they answer?
Thanks for the honest and professional answer Nick.
So this means that if Joe Turpel interviewed somebody that later tested positive for Covid, he would have to isolate for 14 days and would not be able to commentate?
Could be a blessing in disguise.
Joe only ever interviews Pottz. Make of that what you will!
They’re going to be dragging up corona free wild cards. You and I might be competing against each other for a couple of hundred euros by the time it gets to Portugal.
I’ll do it for travel costs and free bags on arrival
Haha. Would be a nice surprise at the oversized baggage collection area if one of Pablo’s old stashes slid down the carousel with your name on it.
Excellent journalistic question. And Nick is just the man to seek the answers to these legitimate questions.
I wish I had a credit card with someone else’s name on it so I could enter. All the best with this. Fuck the WSL.
I just gambled on a hot fart while carrying two cartons of stubbies. I’m up for anything!
Risking your britches and your VB’s. Living on the edge!
I don’t drink vb you sick fuck.
But it’s the Very Best,it’s initials say as much nuts!
