Jack Robinson hijacks WSL feed at Margaret River; transmits via Instagram Live from the Box after controversial decision to keep contest at Main Break!

Meanwhile at The Box… 

In a move unpopular with fans, the WSL made the decision this morn to finish the Margaret River Pro at Main Break and not at The Box, one of the world’s most spectacular righthand tubes.

Saving the day, and featuring bullish commentary from the channel, is Jack Robinson, who famously schooled Filipe Toledo at the Box two years ago.

Let’s recall Longtom’s report from 2019,

Local wildcard Jack Robinson who made the rest of the field look like kooks, in the same way he did at North Point last year.

“Just another day for me,” he said. “I do what I do”.

While WSL cams are peeled on Main Break, Jackie’s telephone is, or at least was, filming from the Box.

Waves, not as inconsistent as y’think, and some biggish holes.

Better, I think, than Main Break and, perhaps, unwise not to complete event there.

Very good chance for girls to prove to world etc.

Jordy's low key claim

JR’s surfing at Main Brk did look a little robotic like..

Owen Wright's Brains

more viewers than wsl?

The Box is a one-trick pony.

Why hold a contest at the Lane when you could hold it at Stockton?

Margaret’s is a performance wave.

The Box is a tuberiding wave.

Simple as that, really.

The one day they ran last time was great, but it wasn’t the final.

Nobody gives a shit about jacks turns

Woke up this morning and I didn’t care who won the comp all i could think was did zinkhead ever get a wave?

How does the WSL consistently fuck it up every time

Chuck Dukowski

The Box would of shown the reality that for all the virtue signaling and equal pay rhetoric that women can’t compete in heavy barreling reef breaks with any sort equality. 💰Take the money and run. 2 foot beach break on a longboard equal pay all day. 8 – 10 foot barrels nope.

Erik Bogan

He put up a 16.50 heat total and got knocked. That gets you through 95% of rd32 heats. His turns are looking good. Just came up against in form Flores

Erik Bogan

Jesse miley is already the worst commissioner . Stop trying to protect the girls. Send them out and watch them get thrown over the ledge

I know, I will always get drunk and text the wozzle.

Chas Smith

Rarely do I throw stones at the World Surf League, but the call to Main Break not Box seemed egregious.

Chief Hot stuff

They’re just doing what all good lefties do
Fuk things up

Owen Wright's Brains

Chief Hot stuff

Your mum

Owen Wright's Brains

Chief Hot stuff

Owen Wright's Brains

zing.

Chief Hot stuff

This is the world now.
Progressive!!
If it were only a mens comp it’d be Box
We all lose.

Wiggolly's Paddling Style

Main Break is like Felipe Toledo’s arsehole and the Box is like Julia Muniz’s pussy. We know which one ELo prefers.

Occ Topus

Yes, he kisses one and ignores the other (respectively).

OccysBong

Trick question.. Chas’s taint boom 10 points

Firelipe Torpedo

Nice of robbo to stream from his phone knowing full well his wife’s pussy would inevitably be pulled into the conversation for comparison purposes. Legend

Phat-wan kerr

I admire jack, can’t be easy deciding which box to thread.

Waterproof Polo

Hell yes DR. Rub it in their stinky corporate faces. Interesting to see if Robbo gets a ticking off by e-dawggy dawg and the boys.

Stick man

Like white on rice DR!
