"YES!! NO BIG WAVES THEY SCARE ME."
We live in the future, all of us, where electric FedEx trucks sing songs while double parking, the world’s richest man Jeff Bezos has married an AI bot and sitting world surfing champion Filipe Toledo, who refuses to paddle into big lefts, has his Instagram account run by a troll.
Wild.
Aliens also, apparently, exist, but back to Filipe Toledo. The Brazilian flyboy has lived in the United States of America, near Lower Trestles, for some time now thereby rending his name Philip Toledo. Wonderful and blended with the only trouble arising from the fact that he doesn’t actually own the name “Philip Toledo” on Instagram though somebody does do who enjoys commenting about fear and big waves on other posts.
A sampling.
Very funny and true, though I’m trying to get real inside information from Toledo himself on why he don’t like to go big and left thanks to our Voice Of No Reason’s pushing.
Light candles.
In the meantime, and with the Teahupo’o Olympics coming up, do you think Philip is ready to actually face his fear legitimately?
Or will a “Kelly-Slater-needing-to-go-to-Brazil” type injury beset him?
On that note, Slater is the best professional surfer to ever live. Why can’t he just admit he hates progress and order?
Doubling down, why can’t Filipe just say, “It’s true. I’m scared. Have you seen that reef up close?”
Are you there, Julian Assange?
It’s me Chas.
Three off limit (censored) subjects at recent Teahupo event; any mention of the tragic Maui fire, Ewing’s injury or even mention his name and how much the WSL SUCKS.
Like a heat at Chopes
Four posts, zero followers
I feel for the kid
Even philpe Toledo is embarrassed to be philpe Toledo….
Rumors swirling of treachery on the bike path at dawn patrol. Instigating locals mum on the subject. Phil seen checking his six. Stickers being printed.

Looks like Kolohe Andino is squaring off against Cose Stoyanoff in his first heat at Virginia Beach tomorrow.
Any chance that’s a BG regular running that account? Chas, DR, or Bexy, willing to claim? JenSee?
FYI: use that pic above and user/avatar name Phildo!

That’s what you call it, when your sea doo launches off the trailer on your way to Puerto Vallarta. Because it didn’t work in the sea any more. Needless to say, couldn’t surf for a whole day waiting on it to shrink a little.
