Pure super yacht.
The biggest shock, yesterday, at the World Surf League’s inaugural Finals Day was not that it wasn’t an utter disaster. Not that third place Filipe Toledo, very much against paddling into waves of consequence, lost to dominant Gabriel Medina. Not that prohibitive favorite Carissa Moore beat Tati Weson-Webb. Not even that waves showed up and stayed around all day as the sun peaked out, through fog, and the cobbled stone shone.
No, no no. It was, rather, the shining vision of World Surf League CEO Erik Logan, emerging at the end of the day as a unique thrust of nature, the sexiest cocaine cowboy out of Oprah Winfrey’s cocoon.
Note Logan early days, back in Oprah’s cocoon.
Look now upon his announcement as World Surf League CEO.
Feet wet, meeting with a vile surf journalist, very much in the game.
And yesterday, cobbled stone.
More salt than pepper hair cut just right, a Don Johnson-adjacent beard hugging no double chin, white polo down to grey slacks and clean Vans.
Straight Miami.
Pure super yacht.
And wow.
Do you celebrate along with title?
We all should.

Chas needs to take a job in Biden’s White House running cover for Biden Gaffe’s. This article is just unbelievable! While Chas is blowing smoke up Elo’s ass, Elo is running for cover in Santa Monica. He promised a huge bump from the Olympics and got nothing. He ran a World Championship at Trestles and nobody cares. He promised his masters and ABC that the Ultimate Surfer would be a ratings hit. NOTHING! And as far as the “Olympic Bump” to put things into perspective, the combined views at NBC for Italo and Carissa couldn’t keep up with the women’s discus throw! It’s a ratings BOMB! It’s all a ratings BOMB!
In summary: Chas, do professional surfing a favor, help liberate professional surfers from Erik Logan! If he’s allowed to keep going his legacy will be as the Chief ‘Execution’ Officer of professional surfing careers.
Miller Time!
You seem like a smart guy, I think you can figure it out.
Hey man, just trying to help him out, sometimes you just don’t realize the good thing that you’ve got–till it’s gone.
Drek is his secret style consultant
peaked out huh
No and no. I will not come anywhere near your face. Sick panty.
Hahaha!
Oughta bring back that look in the first photo, give Fernando something to go up against.
FFS when I first saw the photo…I thought Elo had copied Matty B’s new look….??
I’m still waiting for an exciting surfing contest and season. In several instances, positive adjustments transpired like equality between the men and women, and, increase of prize money. But generally, the WSL has turned this competition into a reality show. Unless you’re one of the few in this exclusive tight little family, the average fan is being short changed. Covid hasn’t helped, but still, the whole outline narrowing down
who’s the best surfers at the end of season is totally subjective and over hyped. You really need a board of directors and evolve this sport into something more digestible.
Boring
I can’t believe it’s not Logan!
Nothing screams “I wank in the closet so no one will ever catch me” like slacks and Vans.
I’m frightened to ask what skinny black jeans and vans mean … for a friend of course
Who writes this gay ass shit!?
Your dad.
Whatever lady.
Your dad is.
The look of a man who loves his cutback
Might as well pull this out from the depths of the live comments thread.

I’m disappointed. That’s factually incorrect. There is no stick.
He was not being a sweepy boi in this photo.
Must have been photoshopped.
E-Lo-cut
Time for a party!
That last shot on the podium is the oddest darned family portrait photo I ever did see. Those kids must have been adopted right? More to the point, why are they holding gigantic Tibetan singing mull bowls?
ELo appears (especially with the new look) to be someone who will be a lot happier once he comes out of the closet.
Looks like he’s been shooting up pure Pfizer cocaine
Check his inside elbow
the best german gear, get on it Bexy
If Gabe said do it
I’d do it.
You, not so much.
You’ve got a strong mind, never lose that Bexy.
I keep it in a locked box
I don’t think your wife would approve.
She’s kinda naughty.
Well bro, marriage is a wonderful thing between a man and a woman.
Not everyone is blessed with a wife in their lifetime….
