  • Heat Replay of Jack Robinson vs Nathan Hedge at the Outerknown Tahiti Pro - Round of 16
    The most critical wave in the world is now somehow more extreme than ever. Added to the mutant barrels, committed drops, and razor-sharp reef is the fact that Teahupo’o serves as the last fight for the WSL Final 5. The women get their first shot at the famed barrel in 16 years and the world’s best surfers get one last chance to lay it all on the line for a spot in the Rip Curl WSL Finals.

    Already become legend this heat. One for the ages. How Robbo lost after such mesmerising top end surfing from him is incredible in itself. But Hog had other ideas and he resurrected full on old school gung ho to bludgeon his way to an astonishing come back win. He simply wouldn't be denied.

    Jack proved he had the best barrel riding on a technical level, hands down. Hedgy proved he can turn sketchiness around in a pinch to survive a massive wipeout. So what’s better? A guy who can recover from what should be a wipeout and make a wave? Or a guy who is so good that he makes insane barrels look like nothing because he takes off and rides so perfectly it looks like nothing? Personally I think Jack was robbed. No one, not even Kelly, demonstrated the kind of precision out there that Jack did. It wasn’t even close. When everyone else was hanging on for life and hoping they made it through, Jack put himself in the perfect place at every split second to ensure nothing was left to chance and he maximized the coverup on every wave until the very end.

    JR was deeper than hedge on better and hollower waves, showing objectively more technical skill, but when you watch the guy surf its almost boring as you can just see that no matter what hes coming out. Hedge had the wow factor in this heat, his waves were insane to watch but only because of the imperfections. It says a lot about the way the sports judged that he won.

    I completely disagree, although I will admit jack surfed an amazing heat and put on a technical barrel riding clinic (which is well reflected in the scores), Hedge’s 9.87 was well deserved and I would argue even underscored, you write as if hedge made that drop off of pure luck, as if he just stumbled into that gapping chopes pit while being ingulfed in the largest plume of spit most mortal has laid eyes on. What Hedge displayed was experience, only a human who has spent hundreds of sessions dialing in that break can do what he did. Somehow taming an elevator drop, setting the rail and gliding out after what felt like an eternity to the roar of every surfer in the channel. Peter Mel and Kaipo said it best “he was blind in that barrel traveling off of braille”. Although you could say he almost wiped out he didn’t he made a near wipe out look controlled and buttery, he turned what could have been a roll through the reef into a near 10. Jack deservedly got to excellent scores, but Hedge displayed how experience a ,few minutes and two perfect waves can turn a heat. But neither of us should really argue about this to much, Surfing is subjective, ultimately it’s in the eyes of the beholder, and we are all biased towards our favorite surfers. That’s what makes it fun to watch you can live through your hero’s experiencing their victories along side them, and unfortunately also there loses. Everyone hates when there favorite surfer loses and sometimes the judges get it wrong. Shoot when John John lost in Portugal this year I blamed it on the commissioner for running it in shitty conditions. Surfing is surfing, contests are contests, heats are heats. Let’s just have fun, admire the sport and its athletes, and simply be thankful we get to see two surfers duke it out in the best waves in the world.

And what is Robo doing gesturing to the judges, maybe asking for another push for Trestles?
