Open Thread: Comment Live on Day One of the Hurley Pro Sunset Beach presented by Shiseido!

GOATs on parade!

Wow but it seemed like an eternity to arrive at this moment, this time, when our professional surfers and surfettes will once again paddle from shore into pitched competition with each other and with nature.

Jordy Smith appears in heat one. Kanoa Igarashi heat two. Kelly Slater, who is sometimes called the Greatest of All-Time, or GOAT, joins us for heat three. Will the women surf today? Will they even kick the event right off? Impossible to know.

Exciting times and made more so by enjoying with your very best friends in the comments. Watch here or here. Comment below.

Monsanto crop dusting might have caused remediation with legal runoff watershed, apparently nothing to see here today.

Koa’s 7 was a gross over score. Last wave, he did nothing but surf ugly the whole wave then an ugly strait legged re-entry. For that people want him to get a 6 or more? Please. As others have said, you don’t get to beat the GOAT with that kinda weak shit.

I thought the score was fair. They replayed Kelly’s 5.7 (or whatever it was) and had three or 4 turns. Koa snowboarded it until the last section. It was a big hack but only one real turn on the wave.

That last overhead shot seemed to show all the outer reefs washing through down towards Pipe. I’m no expert, but I’d say too big!

At this size too big but Sunset is still fun when small. Good winds for Sunset can be crosshore at pipe. Don’t bother with either go Diamond Head and check out some hot Japanese bodyboarder chicks asses.
