Oops, they did it again.
The World Surf League is in the midst of an ironman streak of linguistic embarrassment, one that has stunned even the creative agencies responsible for some of the worst advertising blunders ever. But who could forget the classic blunders “Make 7-Up Yours,” Reebok’s “Cheat on your girlfriend, not your workout” or “The best things in life come in Cellophane.”
Well, the team that brought us “It takes a tour to make a title,” “All action, no lulls” and “You can’t script this” has just rolled out “Aussie Treble” relating to the upcoming Bells Beach, Burleigh Heads and Margaret River events.
There is no doubt that we will hear “Aussie Treble” said, from the booth, thousands upon thousands of times. Joe Turpel, Jesse Mendes, AJ McCord each using early and using often. Mitchell Salazar, if he’s invited, as well except using the cosplay Spanish “Aussie Trrrrrrrrrevel” instead.
Ugh.
Buckle up.

Isn’t ‘treble’ Australian slang for clitoris?
No one touched this one
🍻
Just saw it. Nice
Wheres flick when you need her in the box
Can’t hurt
Genuine question, what is WSL’s biggest market? Is the term treble used in Aussie sports? Because North Americans know shit about fuck when it comes to half the stuff the talking heads blab about on the Aussie leg. I legitimately though Bonsoy was a beer company for several years, and the ladder stuff? what the actual fuck is going on in Australia? Why would a ladder company sponsor surfing? Why do Aussies breathe through their mouths so much? And what happened to this guy?

We are a joke here for sure!! But i nose breathe when i can
It’s hard!
Pretty sure he’s a member of Parliament now
We might breathe through our mouths but you cunts talk out your ass.
Xox
so when “we” put the finger up our bumholes, does that mean we’re sucking our thumbs?
Science!
Xox
We all use ladders so we can up on down under.
Wait till you hear “Waxhead” say it.

I miss Pauly
It’s the great Aussie treble , let’s vote on what washed up burnt out pros they roll out in the commentary box this time around, im going with

Qland- Stuffed Gilmore.
WA – TB.
biggest shit load of live comments will come from fucked Palmeeter in WA. With I’ve been there done that,technical heavy water and little Jack Robbo fingered me behind the dunnies at riverdog.
No more flick in the wsl
Do tell more have i missed something of value
We need professor Lenny from Rottnest. “Glad you like it here but don’t ever come back”
and who can forget that great short story: The Advantages of the Cellophane Bikini by Seymour Bushenbutts.
I’ve only ever heard it used in Football, as in real football from Europe describing a win across 3 comps. I suppose it’s accurate here.. But with the Wozz’s history who can know at this stage?!
We used to use to hear the term Triple Crown way back when pro surfing was less happy.
‘Triple Crown’ sounds too DEI , feminine and Latin.
Now it’s gonna be the THREE GOLD MAN-HATS of surfing.
Quietly thanking large number of DEI-ties that it’s not the ‘Aussie 3-Peat’…
What’s the bet that Joey secretly loves having Saladbar around? Stridez ran the numbers on the El Salvador shamozzle and it doesn’t look good for Mitch. His reference usage accuracy rate sits under zero and combined with the industry standard measure “Metaphor Butchery per heat quota” means Turps can officially add Hand Jam to the approved manoeuvre list and Lip line to the allowed descriptive terms for waves.
With Ronnie in the booth for the Oz leg and Salads back making Tacos under the overpass, Joe is nervous about his standing. Again.

We tend to say “tercet”,or “triumvirate” in my parts.
Your parts ancient Rome? 😉
Lets jut hope their not using the auditory definition and they’re alluding to Shannon coming back in the booth.
Who was the cunt who likened her to an f-16 crashing into a cattery?
Peak Grit cunt.
Xox
NoNonagon infin. If my memory serves me correctly
Qualité !!
Xox
Oh, and may I suggest the correct pronounciation for the first event?
“Aussie treh-BELLs”.
Non non non monsieur
Aussi très belles
Xox
Ah!
Wee-wee!
Was just considering the fact that Newcastle has got two surfers; Callinan and Cibilic, in Bells. Pretty good % of representation considering the size of this joint.
Yeah small joint but every cunt here surfs.
‘Cept for the ones that don’t.
East coast getting macking swell for easter and offshores – no doubt missing Bells!!
Gonna be siiiick!!n Good Friday looking Great!!

Angus Young has the best Aussie treble if you ask me—usually sets it about 1 o’clock. Bright tone, but not ice-picky.
I would have said Ed Kuepper and even Malcolm ahead of Angus, but he’s definitely up there.
One of the more interesting things about Angus toan was he played more or less clean and achieved all of his ‘noise’ with volume, gain and his own god driven fingers.
Tone is 85% in your hands.
