"The momentum of the Championship Tour, the World Surf League and professional surfing is realer.”
This is Jessi Miley Dyer’s world, we just so happen to be living in it. The World Surf League Chief of Sport, hours ago, took to Instagram, once the main platform of deposed CEO “Handsy” Eric Logan, in order to present the fact that her 2023 finals day was up, in viewership, by nearly 30% as opposed to last year’s 2022’s iteration conducted by the aforementioned Logan.
Mic.
Drop.
You will certainly recall when, just before last September’s running at Lower Trestles showdown, Logan stood before an audience and declared, “We have not even had the biggest day in pro surfing yet and we’ve already eclipsed some of the most amazing milestones we’ve seen in the history of the sport. Already this has been the most consumed live digital audience in the history of professional surfing before this day has ever happened. We’re up 13.4%, precisely, we like precise numbers. We’re ahead of that before the biggest day in professional surfing. The momentum of the Championship Tour, the World Surf League and professional surfing is real.”
His momentum might have been real, as he could not stop that rolling stone from slamming into Brazil, making a sensual mess then getting disappeared.
But the World Surf League’s?
Objectively arguable.
Semi-legitimate sponsors were replaced by Bailey Ladders and Joe Turpel’s kitchen remodel services. No reflection of professional surfing, at its premier level, growing in a meaningful way.
Yet here we are again.
Miley Dyer urinating on Logan’s grave by claiming this year’s Finals Day was up a precise number 29% viewership over last year’s.
Here’s the question for you, though.
Is all this “growth” proof that our WSL is on the right path or is it merely an indication that Miley Dyer is on her way out the door for some bit of unseemly behavior?
Uh oh.
History and repeating, or some such.
Speaking of growth, has she stood in front of a mirror recently?
here’s the youtube viewer money calculator. oh yeah, they’re making a killing…7.3 M total viewers = $17K. JMD: “Yeah, I’m seeing red…ish.”

Neither of them are journalists but Charles for some reason latched onto the term. Maybe “surf writer” was already taken?
Derek if you want to read a bit about the Cawnpore massacre, may I recommend “Flashman and the Great Game” by George MacDonald Fraser.
Be warned, If there’s a certain bunch of words used to describe people with dark skin, Flashman will use them, and he’s not above indecency and lechery (and the rest). I mean it’s a kind of minor mystery why the books haven’t been cancelled yet and when they came out the American press actually thought they were non-fiction.
So prize money will obviously increase by at least 20% on next years tour due to its undeniable success?
Yeah, sure it will
At this point, with all this compounding growth there up precisely 4,874,203.27%. Truly astounding.
Why did they go to a separate feed for the final heats? I can only think of one reason – to double their views!
Nah just taking the piss xox
Why does she look like she’s about to bust through a wall and offer me Kool-Aid?
“Ohhhh Yeahh!”

Then why did I see the youtube feed average around 60K?
20K viewers = $47.00 X 3 = “We’re killing it…piss on me!”
Because you need glasses? 🙂
Fuck that’d be a big piss too, very very solid stream
I used to work for a college prep program and would send out a news release proclaiming that 98% of our kids are accepted to a 4-year college or university.
Reporter calls me up and says, where you getting your data?
We survey our teachers from thousands of our schools across the country I explained.
I won that one, or so I thought. Any more questions, Mr. Reporter!?
He barks back: So all you have is “self-reported” data?
Um guess that means you’re not going to publish the article?
All is well in my world https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
Tell me that place is called Baggies?
Maggios lil buddy.
In valium socialist Cammeray
What is that? I don’t think we have those here .
Oh, its good.
Creamy scramble, prosciuto, rocket.
too rich! and i love mayo.
I would’ve thought rocket would be too lefty-latte for you Bexy.
Youre the conservatives now
We radical extreme!!!!!
Interesante!
Numbers were up on the back of a definitely agreeable hurricane forecast for once.
The only reason.
So the magical number last year was 8.3 million i believe.
Bringing this year’s number to roughly 10.7 mil.
Seems unlikely but my Jessi wouldn’t lie
They’re all liars
I get it, she’s Chief Of Sport and all, but shit howdy it sure seems like she’s COSplaying executive leader.
I let most of Logan’s idiocy just wash over me as it was happening. It’s hitting a lot harder in hindsight.
I logged onto YouTube right at the start of Felipe and ewing’s first heat. There was 5000 viewing the English speaking stream and about 1200 on the Portuguese.
Almost as rousing a turnout as the world champion’s parade through San Clemente https://www.instagram.com/r…
ooft
Wow. Totally not WSL staff family members at all.
Such incredible grassroots support swelling from the population.
where’s the riot? they’re certainly no hellraisers in that crowd. ‘cepting Felipe.
Yeah but still up 29% cunt xox
…from no cunt to fuck all., you mean.
Yeah but all absolute goons starting to follow too xox
Oooooo…grim.
Pro surfing is saaaaaad.
thighs…caroline’s…oh my!
Liar, liar, pants on fire
Her pink pantsuit is definitely on fire, and not in a good way…
oh fuck, that get up was a sackable offense.
Lol
Can’t remember, cause we never found out why.
You did to! Don’t be dense. He made wrong sexy stuff in Brazil.
On your way back from the Bu, stop by the Manhattan Beach pier, you might spot him, stop by his nearby shop and do a wellness check, ask the shop employees how’s he doing, and ask or tell them you want to interview him for a story.
Who knows?
Nothing ventured—nothing gained.
Maybe he’s just waiting to tell someone, his side of the story.
I think I remember some oblique remarks, and innuendo, a ways back, but no specifics.
We must presume innocent till proven otherwise?
Has any one come forward?
Did I miss something back then?
I’m honestly curious what this guy is up to now.
It definitely throws some shade on the Wsl if there’s a cover-up going on.
Are they liable for the action of their employees?
When are you leaving for Malibu?
It was patchy at best…
