Danger bay.
Any true fan of our great surfing game knows that it is not oft bloody. Oh certainly feelings have been hurt in the water. Sometimes an aggrieved professional will splash, lightly, in another professional’s direction as a show of bubbling discontent. Sometimes shoulders will be shrugged toward judging towers but fists are rarely thrown, boards even rarer but let us travel to the Dominican Republic where the Cabarete Pro has just finished which happens to be a World Qualifying Series 1000 which also happens to feature wanton violence.
Per professional surfer Levi Slawson was out in the water, enjoying a heat one lead complete with priority when…
Was having a really fun round 1 heat in the last event before this happened. I had first priority and I took this wave from him at the end of the heat, I guess this was his reaction… he said it was an “accident” @magnopachecoo to think what would have happened if ur fins actually hit me (mind blown emoji) so glad to be ok! Time to move onto the next event! Feel free to repost. Thank you to @wsl @wsl.qs for taking quick action on this!!
Magno Pacheco, the tagged surfer, is from Brazil.
Slawson hails from the United States.
But what do you imagine is punishment for board shooting in this day and age?
A wrist slap?
Forcing to share a bunk with Joe Turpel?
Hmmmmm.
2 men enter, one man leaves
I Just Got This Great Idea For A New Extreme Surfing Sport!!!
Forcing to share a bunk with Kaipo would be the deadliest torture!
An asshole and a snowflake.
Geez chas, you should have let derek write this one after all the guy who progressed as a result of the interference was israeli great eithan osborne.
Funnily enough the wsl web site says both osborne and pacheco are americans.
This is the best advertisement for fin systems ever made!
Please FCS, Future Fins, look for this guy!
And by the way, to kepp things always in straight view…
No 12th???!!!!…
Priority huh? Looked like you snaked his wave.
Tittle it’s very dramatic for not reason. I was there and I saw Magno was already riding the wave then the rich kid decided to cut Magno to don’t let him ride it in order to secure the rich kid’s buddy’s third place who was on the same heat. There are two sides on the story. But only one have the money to pay for this article.
What do You have inside your skull? A Big pile of manure? It’s a SPORT, it has RULES, he didn’t “cut” magno (yes no caps and not magno bye any means) he used a rule to keep him of a Wave. If he was so mad, confront him at the beach, don’t cowardly launch the board from BEHIND.. HE IS A COWARD, a bad sportsman, if he can be called a man, and You are pathetic
But hey, now he’s famous! Haaha, now he Will be welcome where ever he goes hahahaha. By the way “rich kid”? serious resentment there.. Daisy boy
So it must’ve been in the dying minutes of the heat? Magno was in third with Levi winning or second and he used priority to prevent Magno from getting a score? 4 man heat with only two progressing, who cares who comes third? Am I missing something?
Enjoy those glasses!
Wait till you’re laying bricks Levi. Wait till some smart arse expert bricky throws a googly at you. Then you’ll see what a near bloody miss is. You gunna throw that up on the gram?
Trump is a weak man’s version of a tough man. Also, a poor man’s version of a rich man and a dumb man’s version of a smart man.
3 feet and 4 1/4 inches.
Wow, Trump has real world experience? No wonder the Country is a mess.
He’s been lurking. Can’t give up that level of internet addiction so easily.
I think Mag-no showed unprecedented restraint, commendable self-control and noble, selfless humility…
for a Brazilian.
Oh yeah.
We need more of this. Trim the QS herd so to speak. How the fuck these guys call themselves pros. I see better surfing at the local.
Niiiiiiice….
“HA! C’mon Man!”
Mustn’t kink shame!
