Can’t decide whether to like or dislike. Surf looked good- they should have ran for three more hours. Particularly since it was during California west coast prime time. Stupid.
JMD said tomorrow
Yes she’s got the Wossl Vanilla!
Bit of 90s silverchair wafting around in the backgrouynd there
Can a Novacastrian confirm that the shorey is a ‘shorey of doom’?
Doesn’t look like a patch on La Graviere
Not now but it was ugly this morning.
Caroline smacking the shit out of it backside.
Definitely not surfing “like a girl”.
Nice crack.
I’ve gotta say I haven’t been a fan of her surfing, but shit, that was pretty damn good!
1645
I don’t like Caroline but man she’s got a mean backhand hack.
Some dodgy commentary from Rondog there – ‘Hide and seek’?
she’s in tears.
Big moment.
She’s got this in the bag right?
The event I mean, confidence will be sky high now
It probably won’t change how all the other women surf in heats, but it’s sure changed how I view the women’s events from here on. Like, where did the stuff go that Carissa threw down in newcastle?
Glad I tuned back in. Best thing all comp
Surely thats the biggest air ever landed in the women’s CT.
Carissa is making this rock break look better than anyone.
She has picked off a few gems
How about the tight-arse that gave it a nine-five.
One of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.
As I was saying, the performance gap is narrowing.
Its going to close rapidly with the next crop coming up eh.
I’d like to see Steph, Carissa and Tyler go head to head with men in the Tub.
Some match ups would be really interesting. Probs not against Toledo, Italo and Medina tho
yep, I think they could all beat JJF though.
He HATES that joint
Shit camera work tho
best air ever in a womenfolk event perhaps?
I like how it was quite tweaked out. Looked great
Yes! Carissa!
