Open Thread: Comment Live on “Holiday Freesurf” as brave rebels thumb noses at U.S. territorial sovereignty!

It would be a good opportunity to let people other than the usual talking heads grab the mic. I’m fine with the normal crew on contest day, Turpel included. But the chat fatigue seemed real the little bit I watched today. Good on those commentators for giving it a go, but ya this is an opportunity for people like the couch surfing crew.

So Fly the couch surfing guys over. Pay some locals to get on the mic. Where are all the coaches? Is Mathew Mconaughey out there to drop some Hollywood b rate surf knowledge (always entertaining to poke holes in). Interview some rando’s on the beach. Let some groms run it till they implode from all that power. Let some people go ham and create some lay day controversy. Call up Elo out of the blue, Kaipo’s prolly got his number. Start making phone calls. Call Chas up and if he starts getting to edgey, hang up and say the call got dropped, that sounds be fun! Think about all the articles Chas would write scorching the WSL for hanging up on him. Literally years of free press. Or let Chas create some new Bobby Martinez sound bites to be repeated for eternity. C’mon, You Can’t Script This, ya just gotta tee it up and see what happens!
