Show Notes

Like a rumbling in the jungle, an approaching storm front, an uprising of the people - the Women were coming and at the Pipeline, they arrived.

No more sitting back and waiting for Backdoor leftovers or onshore Beach Park, NO, that will not do. Give us 8-10 ft flawless backdoor and raging Pipe Pits. As Kevin Costner said in Field of Dreams, "Build it and they will come".

History beckoned and was made.

Pipeline's really is for the Fucking Girls.

Oh, and there is some AI in this episode, too.

[00:00:00] Speaker A: Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:01] Speaker B: Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:02] Speaker C: Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:04] Speaker A: Barrel Surf podcast. Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:06] Speaker B: Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:07] Speaker D: Barrel Surf podcast. [00:00:09] Speaker C: Yeehaw. [00:00:15] Speaker A: That was a sick one, T Bone. Nothing fades. Bottom turns a piss. [00:00:20] Speaker D: Nothing better than watching Nick Fanning just glide in and out. [00:00:25] Speaker A: Attitude and a right hand point break. [00:00:28] Speaker C: Pipeline is for the fucking girls you guys are talking about. We were just talking about this. A visual medium and you're talking about a video that's on in the intro. Music. Welcome to Barrelserv podcast. As in T Bone. Fucking stinking it up because it's pretty hot in the sharequarters. [00:00:45] Speaker A: It is pretty hot. [00:00:45] Speaker C: How are we, boys? [00:00:47] Speaker A: Good, very good. Stinking it up. We've got a new addition to the shed in the way of a little tv screen that we've busted out the old VHS player and we've got it silently on in the background. A bit of fanning the fire 2001 Lennox head. [00:01:03] Speaker C: So that looks like Lennox to me. [00:01:04] Speaker A: It's an infamous swell, the east coast low of 2001, where fanning shot this video and jeez, it's pretty distracting, isn't it, T Bone? T Bone can't even talk. [00:01:14] Speaker D: It's super distracting. I was just trying to think what VHS videos I do have at home. And one VHS that just jumped out as he was. The billabong challenge, do you remember that one? [00:01:25] Speaker A: Oh, fuck yeah, I remember them all. [00:01:27] Speaker D: Stood up in an eight foot super tubes pit. Yep. [00:01:30] Speaker A: Well, that was. Yeah, there was the two desert challenges. There was the one on the east coast. There was the east coast one that was like nine lives or something, wasn't it? [00:01:38] Speaker C: Sunny Ghost, he was like, well, we're not here tonight. Ride big surf. [00:01:43] Speaker A: And then, yeah, there was the JBay. The JBay challenges. Remember the JBay one was so windy and okie comes in. He was that stoned. I reckon he's like, oh, my eyes have got a glitch in it. [00:01:54] Speaker C: He's just, look at that one. Look at that one glitching. [00:01:57] Speaker A: He's like winking his eyes. He's like, I got a twitch. [00:02:00] Speaker C: There he is. [00:02:01] Speaker A: That was on cue, wasn't it? [00:02:03] Speaker C: Wasn't it? Once again, visual medium. The listeners can't see that we're just watching. [00:02:09] Speaker A: We thought it was a good idea. Put fanning the fire on in the background, but maybe it's not a good idea. [00:02:13] Speaker C: Maybe not, maybe not. But I think everyone's seen it. [00:02:16] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:02:16] Speaker C: This year for me is I can't hear what the track is at the moment, but that's all good. [00:02:21] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:02:21] Speaker C: Hey. Fucking hell. How's pipeline. It's a few days ago now. We're just about to probably start sunset overnight, so. Better, hopefully I can get this out in the next couple of days by sort of Sunday afternoon, but yeah, massive, massive comp, T bone. [00:02:39] Speaker D: Well, they picked. [00:02:40] Speaker C: Welcome back to southwest, mate. [00:02:43] Speaker D: Fucking good to be back. Good to be back. Got back Tuesday. A couple of surfs already got the yelling up. Board riders kicking off on Sunday, mate. [00:02:52] Speaker C: Wow. [00:02:52] Speaker D: The over 45s division is probably the most stacked division in the club by. [00:02:56] Speaker C: The looks of it's about 17 entrance. [00:03:00] Speaker D: My chance to make a final. [00:03:01] Speaker A: But straight into some waves on your first day back, too, T Bone? [00:03:05] Speaker D: Can't complain. I do have a Clive Palmer straight off the bat, though, from my first surf, but I'll save that. [00:03:14] Speaker A: You got to save that, mate. Save that doesn't sound good. Maybe that's just the angst of being away on a rig for a couple of weeks. Maybe you think it's a Clive, but maybe you're just a bit worked up, T Bone. Is that a possibility? [00:03:25] Speaker D: It's a Clive. I even spoke to some people in the car park and have validated my. [00:03:30] Speaker A: Clive, we'll talk about it later, all right? Yeah, well, a few little waves to be had the last couple of days. It was a good little south swell came through. [00:03:40] Speaker D: We had a surf, didn't we? You paddled out and we split a few peaks. [00:03:43] Speaker A: We did. Yesterday. We had a little barrel podcast moment. Namu wasn't there, unfortunately, but we were definitely sitting out the back and splitting some rights and lefts. Trev, our ongoing sponsor from down south, Physio, he was out there getting involved with a few peaks. We're splitting a few with him, too, weren't we? [00:04:02] Speaker D: Yeah, old fruffens brown on a hot was. [00:04:05] Speaker A: We started talking about our other sponsors, cheeky monkey and Forrester, and this is in the lineup. I was informing T Bone that he's got to come around and get his bounty. And Trev got all worked up and he got a bit of Fomo and just started demanding that he needed some beer and wine. So we obliged, mate. [00:04:23] Speaker D: Can't wait to get my lips around some more. Forester estate. [00:04:26] Speaker A: Yep, very good. [00:04:27] Speaker D: Best wine. [00:04:29] Speaker A: So, yeah, we've had a few little summer waves, but pretty ready for summer to piss off and autumn to roll on where we get the real surf. That'd be nice. [00:04:37] Speaker C: Let's get some cooler air conditions, mate. This hot weather is killing me, especially being an office, not ac. [00:04:46] Speaker A: Yeah, that's right. [00:04:47] Speaker C: But, yeah, let's get some crispy autumn offshores and let's get amongst it. [00:04:51] Speaker A: But that'd be nice. [00:04:52] Speaker C: Tiban says we do have the board riders on the weekend, which should be, I don't know, pretty interesting. It's pretty smallish. [00:05:00] Speaker A: Swell. [00:05:00] Speaker C: So we'll see. [00:05:01] Speaker D: Tiny, mate. Hopefully I'll get over a total heat score of ten. That's my goal this year. [00:05:06] Speaker A: Yes, well, you can't do any worse than me and Namu did in a twin fin, so someone's got to fly the flag for us. [00:05:11] Speaker C: What are you talking about, mate? We made the semifinals. [00:05:13] Speaker A: Did you guys team up? Shit. No. That would have been a disastrous. [00:05:18] Speaker C: No. Thank you. Thank you, our good friend Sammy Morrison, for getting me through the first round. [00:05:24] Speaker A: Okay. [00:05:26] Speaker C: Yes. I actually outscored Sammy in the second round. Did you really? [00:05:30] Speaker D: There you go. [00:05:31] Speaker C: Yeah. Fuck. [00:05:32] Speaker A: He must add a shocker, did he? [00:05:36] Speaker C: Not as much of a shocker as. Yeah, we made the semis. Congratulations to ash and Gummy winning the ash Spencer winning the twin fin. [00:05:49] Speaker D: He's a good surf. Another good day out, that was. [00:05:51] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [00:05:52] Speaker A: Well, enough about our crappy little summer swells. It's winter in the North Pacific and there's actually an absolute thumper bombing through at the moment, I believe, as we speak. Yeah. I was trying to look at the Wymeer cam, but just doesn't look that big when it's on. Know any ocean, you lose height when it's onshore. And I looked at the cam this morning, I was like, yeah, it doesn't look that big, but it was onshore. It just doesn't stand up. [00:06:16] Speaker C: You'll say, look at it from across the bay and without any sort of context of size and it could be like a three foot wave and then someone takes off and they're like a little ant. Holy shit, that's massive. [00:06:26] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:06:27] Speaker D: Kaipo's WSL update on the weather and the comp. [00:06:30] Speaker A: I thought it was pretty. [00:06:32] Speaker D: Yeah, he went into a fair bit of Kaipo. [00:06:36] Speaker C: And was he on the ladder? [00:06:38] Speaker D: He wasn't on the bay. [00:06:59] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. I'm just saying. I'm agreeing with you. They've actually gone, do you know what? We are fucking talk about stinking it up. We are stinking up big time. We better even. Just a couple of little things that they've done like that. [00:07:11] Speaker A: Like just going. We're probably not going to run for the next two days instead of going check back tomorrow for the call when everyone knows it's not going to happen. [00:07:18] Speaker C: And having a full Kaipo or they had Lenny Kravitz, what's his name? Lenny Kyle. Lenny. Doing a update as. Yeah, communication is the keyboard. [00:07:30] Speaker A: Yeah, the forecast looks epic for sunset, but maybe we should knock pipe on the head first and move on to that. [00:07:37] Speaker D: I do have a question. We talk about WSL making decisions and this is probably the most talked about thing on social media, to run or not. When they got that thumping swell. I'll put it to you, boys. If you were Jesse Miley Diler or Travis Logie, would you run or not run? [00:07:59] Speaker C: Run. [00:08:00] Speaker D: Give us your reasons. [00:08:02] Speaker C: Well, why wouldn't you run? It's a fucking pipeline event. It's not supposed to be small and manageable. [00:08:09] Speaker A: And look, we weren't there, but from all accounts, there was the OD wave. And then, like heaps of people have said, you send them out in inconsistent small surf where the opportunities to score waves are not super high. So why wouldn't you send them out into maxed out surf where you've got the same amount of opportunities, except those opportunities are tens instead of twos. [00:08:31] Speaker D: Oh, you've nailed it on the fucking head. As he. [00:08:32] Speaker A: Thanks, mate. [00:08:33] Speaker D: Couldn't agree with you, mate. [00:08:34] Speaker A: You couldn't agree with me. [00:08:35] Speaker D: Well, fuck you then. [00:08:36] Speaker C: Probably the most said exactly. [00:08:39] Speaker D: You're exactly right. Rather paddle out where it's eight to ten foot. It's going to be exciting for people to watch as opposed to paddling them out in that first round and a couple of foot and people doing turns at. [00:08:53] Speaker A: Yeah, because if it's small and inconsistent, there's not that many opportunities anyway, right? [00:08:57] Speaker D: That's right. [00:08:58] Speaker A: And that's why they said that they wouldn't run it on the big day, because there wasn't enough opportunities. [00:09:03] Speaker C: Well, I'll tell you what, Tommy Carroll would absolutely be fucking turning his grave. Kieran Perot, he's not even dead. [00:09:09] Speaker A: No, he's not, but his future self is. Kieran Perot would be disgusted, wouldn't he? Oh, former pipe champ himself and pipe champ charger who used to be calling the shots, pipe runner up, constantly try to send everyone out to the box even though they probably didn't even have clearance at the time. [00:09:26] Speaker C: He's like, get out there, get out. [00:09:28] Speaker A: There, get out there. [00:09:29] Speaker C: We'll film until they tell us to stop running the con. [00:09:31] Speaker A: What a legend. [00:09:32] Speaker D: It was a pretty difficult forecast, but at the end of the day, it came to the last day of the waiting period. I actually thought that they fucked it. I thought they were going to run out of, you know, they ended up picking the eyes out and actually holding out to the last day and they scored some pretty epic conditions. [00:09:54] Speaker A: I got a good little story about Kieran Perot. If I should slip that in now or after the pipe thing. It's not very long. [00:09:59] Speaker C: Say it's Friday, mate. You might as well slip it in. [00:10:01] Speaker A: Okay. Is that what they say? I'll keep that in mind, mates. One of the greatest pieces of surfing I've ever seen is Kieran Perot. [00:10:12] Speaker D: Actually, he's a charger. [00:10:14] Speaker A: We were up north. I was in the sandman here, sick. I was pulled over on the side of the track. [00:10:20] Speaker D: Well, you drove that up north heaps of times. [00:10:23] Speaker A: Yeah, I used to go up, mate, this was my car. I used to camp out in the car park at Nalu, mate. I didn't need a tent. [00:10:30] Speaker D: You wrapped that, know, as a bit of a. [00:10:33] Speaker A: Well, not since I've restored it. It used to be my daily driver, mate, it was full of rust and dents and shit hanging off it. And I was just belting it, mate, I drove all the way up there with a nail in my tire and it was bald. And I remember going, oh, she'll be right. A bald nail. Yeah, it was. By the end I wore it down. But, mate, I was up there and I was on the track one afternoon. Think I'd maybe out getting some wood or something, which you're not allowed to do anymore, but back then you're allowed to if you went down the track, I think. Anyway, it's a while ago and this random car pulls up and this curly haired frother gets out and just hands me a cold export and goes, here you go, mate. I'm like, is your name Nathan Hedge? And he's like, sure is. And I'm like, g'day, mate, how are you? So he saw the sandman and saw me out there toiling away in the desert on a hot afternoon. Gave me a cold beer. What a fucking legend. He just coming in and he was rolling in with, I think, John Frank, the photographer, and Kieran Perot, who was, I think he was like number four in the world at that stage. They were both on the tour at the time, hoggy and Kieran. And I think maybe Navran Fox was even with them. And one of the photos is actually on the wall. You can't see it, just up there, but behind that sandman. But anyway, so they rolled in for a few days as well. And I was pretty stoked because I was up there hanging out and filming for my movies and I was like, oh, sick a couple of CT boys have rocked up into the desert in between comps. I'm going to get some good footage. And they came up to surf the left. But you know of the very gnarly right hander that is up that way as well, mate. Super gnarly, right? I mean, it's a big, heavy, shallow water, closes out on these big semi submerged three fingers of reef. Like, most of the waves are close outs and every now and then one gets a semi exit and it's eight foot, it's really heaving. It's like the box with a bad insection on it. Everyone knows the wave, or most people do. And anyway, it was looking really good out there. And the boys are like, yeah, we're going to hit it. And hog was just cracking tins because it was the afternoon. He goes, mate, I came up here to surf left, not a fucking right. Because it was on his backhand. [00:12:53] Speaker D: It's not cool, cookie. [00:12:55] Speaker A: Yeah, but, mate, to be fair, it was perfect. It was offshore, sunny, like absolutely heaving, spitting tubes, but it's pretty gnarly. And on your backhand, he was like, fuck that, the insection looks evil. And it was like, fair play. But then Kieran Perot, mate, he's never laid his eyes on this joint, you know what I mean? And he just went out there and just picked all the best waves, got massive hellpits spat out of them. [00:13:25] Speaker D: Sick. [00:13:25] Speaker A: I got some of the best water shots I've probably ever shot out there. I swum out there. [00:13:29] Speaker D: Did he make lubrication? [00:13:31] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. There's a hell section of him in there of these watershots. I think it might even be like. Might even opened the video with it. Like it was meant. [00:13:40] Speaker D: Would that be fine? [00:13:41] Speaker A: That easy? Yeah, it's like one of my. It's like backlit aqua blue, huge water camera pits, like just steaming straight past me. Like, sick. Some of the easily the best stuff I've ever. Some of the best water shots I've ever shot. But why it was the best surfing because it was just a really heavy wave that I knew he'd never even laid his eyes on, you could understand. Oh, yeah, he's a top level surfer and he's been surfing it on and off for the last ten years. And that's how he managed to pick all the good ones. But, mate, he didn't. He just fucking. Just never seen it before. Paddled out, gnarly wave and proceeded to just get the sickest pits in a really dangerous situation and got lots of them, man. It wasn't just like, he nailed one. He fucking nailed about 20 and came in and I just went. And there was other people out who just weren't getting the waves he was getting. It wasn't crowd. [00:14:37] Speaker D: That's what KP does, mate. [00:14:38] Speaker A: What he does. And he just did it over and over and he came in and I was just so impressed that someone could do that on their very first session at such a heavy wave. And I was like, that was an incredible piece of ocean mastery by this guy. And also an incredible level of testicles as well. Involved and skill and judgment and just fuck, it blew me away, man. [00:15:02] Speaker D: He is all testicles. [00:15:04] Speaker A: And then he came in. [00:15:05] Speaker C: Low level of testicles. [00:15:09] Speaker A: I was really impressed. [00:15:13] Speaker C: Can I have your autograph? [00:15:14] Speaker A: No, mate, he came in. Do you have an exploit come up to the. Nah, even better. Gets even better. He came in and he's. Mate, because he was at the peak of his powers. He was like number three or four in the world at the time. Might have been number two. It was like mid year. He come in and he's like, because we just did this marathon session and come in. He's like, mate, I'm that hungry. You got any food in the sandman? And I'm like, mate, I got vegemite clangers. [00:15:36] Speaker C: Sand, which. [00:15:38] Speaker A: Exactly. And I go, mate, I got a vegemite clanger. He's like, oh, mate, vegemite clanger. I'd love one. So I think I made him a vegemite and cheese clanger. And we sat on the back of the Sandman reminiscing and I was like, that was a special moment for me. Definitely one of the highlights of my filming career. [00:15:53] Speaker D: And fuck, yeah. [00:15:54] Speaker A: One of the highlights of my whole surfing career in terms of one of the best things I've ever seen. [00:15:59] Speaker D: That's a good little story, mate. [00:16:00] Speaker A: Yeah, it's pretty cool. I wish we had Kieran Perot back. [00:16:02] Speaker D: KP, bring him back. [00:16:03] Speaker A: He'd just be like, found some random right hander in the middle of fucking nowhere with a bunch of cliffs to get down and dodgy semi submerged fingers on the end. Yes, I reckon we're calling round one on, boys. Get out there. It's maxing out. It's closing out. But I've seen one good one. So we're out there. [00:16:19] Speaker C: Hang on a minute. It's ten foot, twelve foot pipe with a few wash throughs. [00:16:26] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:16:26] Speaker C: My judif care is suggesting that we shouldn't run today, everybody. So we're not going to. [00:16:32] Speaker D: Jesse mode. Jesse, I don't reckon they're going to get a CEO this year. They're just going to punch on. [00:16:39] Speaker C: Yeah, well, they might be punching on if they get. [00:16:41] Speaker D: Do they need one? Do they need one? [00:16:43] Speaker A: That's the thing, yeah, they need something. [00:16:45] Speaker C: You need direction, Matt. You can't be rudderless all season long. But we need k. I did hear that there is going to be some announcements in the coming days. [00:16:55] Speaker A: Cool. [00:16:55] Speaker C: You probably heard it, too, on the chat. [00:16:58] Speaker D: Is it Jesse? [00:16:59] Speaker C: Miley Dialer, Jesse's girl? [00:17:03] Speaker A: Yeah, that's right. Anyway, so back to hit a low spot there in the. [00:17:13] Speaker C: Right. [00:17:14] Speaker A: Yeah, we did touch on it in another pipeline. [00:17:16] Speaker C: Pipeline's for fucking girls and Friday. [00:17:18] Speaker A: Pipelines for girls. Mate, we talked about how disgusted I was with the way they dealt with Carissa Moore's finishing one. They got to give her a round of applause. Mate, mate. Yeah, but, mate, the way they put her out in shit surf didn't give her an opportunity to go out on a high note. [00:17:35] Speaker D: Carissa Moore, everyone. [00:17:37] Speaker A: Carissa Moore. [00:17:38] Speaker D: Carissa Moore. [00:17:40] Speaker A: Mate, it was just fucking disgusting. It was disgusting. And then what made it even worse. [00:17:45] Speaker C: Do you want to hear what the WSL actually gave her? [00:17:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:17:49] Speaker C: Yeti. Crickets. [00:17:51] Speaker A: Crickets. Fucking crickets, mates. Yeah. Just, you know, okay. They didn't give her any chances. That was bad enough. But when she was. Enough with the sound effects, when she was halfway back into the beach at the end of the heat, they cut to ads for three minutes. That's what really pissed me off, because it's one of the greatest to have ever done it. And, mate, where was the fanfare? Where was the videos of her adoring family and fans sharing her up the beach and the celebration of a hard earned career? And they cut to ads and then just went straight back into the next heat. And I was just like that. [00:18:30] Speaker D: Disappointing, was it? [00:18:32] Speaker C: Can I just give you my take on the whole advert situation? Every time you engage with the WSL, right, every single video, whether it's a fucking two second, two minute highlights or whatever, it is like a fucking interview with Tatiana west and Webb at the Tahiti event with the day off or whatever, every single fucking time you have to go through, like, two or three minutes of adverts. Yeah, here's my suggestion, right? You're clearly not making any money. Everyone talks about how much money the WSL is losing, so maybe just fucking rethink the whole situation. You're not making advertising money. Or if you do, it's not enough. [00:19:13] Speaker A: For you to maybe making some, but it's not enough. [00:19:15] Speaker C: Yeah, but just think about it. If the adverts weren't there, you get far more plays on this shit. Just fucking shits me. Well, if you don't have to look at three minutes of adverts, you're more likely to click on something. Yeah. [00:19:30] Speaker A: In the world of the short attention span, indiscriminate scrolling guarantee part of the. [00:19:37] Speaker C: Reason why kids don't watch WSL, because they can't be fucked against the ads. [00:19:41] Speaker D: But if you're watching the broadcast in Europe or the States, isn't it a different probably? Do you get more. [00:19:48] Speaker A: I noticed on. If you watch it on Facebook, you don't get the ads. They pan back and say, stay tuned. It's actually better on Facebook. [00:19:55] Speaker C: YouTube. [00:19:56] Speaker D: YouTube as well. [00:19:57] Speaker C: But in America, apparently pipeline, after the quarterfinals, you had adverts. So there's all these different little things that they've got going around, which, once again, you need a uniform broadcast situation. [00:20:13] Speaker D: Anyway, when you were saying how pissed off you were about fucking Riss's departure from the wazoo, I remember last year when Slater finished up in Margaret river and you were pissed off. I remember you actually said to Slater, yeah. Went up and you were a bit disappointed that the boys didn't cheer you off the beach. [00:20:35] Speaker A: Well, no, I ran up to him and said, has wa just done you a disservice? I feel embarrassed on behalf of the WA surfing community because you just failed to make the cut. And I wasn't sure whether we should be cheering you up the beach. And he said slyly to us, I'll be back, didn't he? And we're just like, oh, okay. [00:20:57] Speaker C: Course. [00:20:58] Speaker A: He was like, nah, don't worry, man. Don't worry. I'll be back. And I was like, okay. [00:21:01] Speaker C: Fucking shot since. [00:21:02] Speaker A: Yeah, but I felt like we missed an opportunity to cheer him up, mate. You know what we should do? We'll just fucking cheer him up the beach. [00:21:11] Speaker D: Cheer him up next, no matter what. [00:21:12] Speaker A: This year, in a couple of months, no matter what, you and me, teammate, we'll just go cherry up the wild card. [00:21:19] Speaker C: He's not making the cut. [00:21:20] Speaker D: Not looking good to him making the Cut. [00:21:22] Speaker A: No, and he surely won't. [00:21:25] Speaker C: He wouldn't be looking good to mate. The final of the over forty five s at young up at the moment. [00:21:31] Speaker A: What do you got against the goat, mate? Fucking, we should cheer him up. I reckon all the barrel podcast listeners out there, if you're down at Margie's. [00:21:38] Speaker D: Be more honor to cheer up. [00:21:40] Speaker A: How good would that be? Actually, no one else would we want the rights. [00:21:45] Speaker C: Let's get all the listeners down there to do the full Kelly chair. [00:21:48] Speaker A: Yeah, because if he's not making the cut, surely they're not going to give him another wild card. [00:21:53] Speaker D: He's not going to go on. [00:21:54] Speaker A: Surely he wouldn't, would he? [00:21:56] Speaker D: No, but. Well, can they give world Ciampa a second wild card? [00:22:01] Speaker A: Probably. They could do anything for Kelly, couldn't they? [00:22:03] Speaker C: Kelly card can do whatever they want, but they'll be in a zimmer frame on a board at some wheel. Kelly back around. [00:22:10] Speaker A: Gids, wheel him around the other side. [00:22:13] Speaker D: He had that hip injury. He still served. Okay, but WSL. [00:22:19] Speaker C: Where's my Zimmer frame? [00:22:22] Speaker A: I'm glad you picked up on that song. Well played. Referencing a bit of Kevin Buddy Wilson from the early 80s there. [00:22:30] Speaker C: T bones hometown Calguli. [00:22:32] Speaker D: Oh, nice. No good? [00:22:37] Speaker A: Well, yeah, I was just really upset that they didn't. I thought, okay, this one time, you cannot run the ads at the end of the heat because a five time world champ has retired in front of you on home soil, and there's surely some emotion to capture on the webcast, some sort of entertainment of high emotional activity, and nothing. [00:22:59] Speaker C: Should have had a pre prepared, pre prepared package ready to go. [00:23:03] Speaker A: Streamers soon. Fireworks and shit. Champagne. [00:23:06] Speaker C: She lost her heat. Boom. Press playing the tribute, like three minutes. Yeah, the tribute hits. [00:23:11] Speaker D: Hey, what about Steph Gilmore decision? [00:23:15] Speaker A: Well, yeah, that's strange. Well, not that strange, but I mean. [00:23:19] Speaker D: Did you see that coming? [00:23:21] Speaker A: Look, it's not that surprising. And then, look, to be fair. Yeah, mate, to be fair, it was pretty uncanny that those two have stepped down and then like, what, a day and a half later, women's surfing has gone two levels above anything that those girls did. [00:23:42] Speaker D: Even though they surfing the main. She didn't even surf and pipe, right? [00:23:45] Speaker A: No, she's taken a year off. [00:23:47] Speaker D: She's pulled out. You tried before it. [00:23:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:52] Speaker D: I just want to say I would have liked to seen her at backdoor. She gets criticized on her back end, but Seth can ride a forehand tube. Yeah, come on. [00:24:03] Speaker A: I'm sure she can. Is she going to pack them at that level? [00:24:06] Speaker D: I think she can, mate. [00:24:07] Speaker C: I reckon she would. [00:24:09] Speaker D: It just would have been good to see steph to. [00:24:11] Speaker A: I remember seeing her in a pretty big right hand pit a few years ago that might have been like pea pass or looked like some tropical destination. That was quite a big tube, but. [00:24:19] Speaker D: It looked barrel than any of those girls on tour. [00:24:23] Speaker C: It wasn't just the barrels, not in competition. [00:24:26] Speaker A: It was the type of barrel. It wasn't a roll into perfect indo peeling barrel. It was a gnarly, freaking lurching throwing out. [00:24:36] Speaker D: Do you remember that backdoor pitch you got last year? [00:24:38] Speaker A: Yeah, that was sick. Yeah, it was sick, but it was smaller than this. [00:24:42] Speaker D: You can't say she can't ride the tube. That's not. [00:24:44] Speaker A: I didn't say that at all. [00:24:45] Speaker D: Right hand tube rider. She's one of the best. [00:24:48] Speaker A: One of the best. But this was more about the criticalness of the drop and the lurch and the steepness and the unpredicted trustability. Look, mate, she could have, but I'm just saying, it was uncanny timing. It was that now those two have walked away and then a day and a half, like a day and a half later, women's surfing has gone to a whole nother level, I reckon, even. [00:25:09] Speaker D: The four cars and thought, fuck that. [00:25:12] Speaker A: I reckon even if she was thinking about coming back, I reckon after watching that heat at semi final of Betty Lou and Molly, she'd just go, you know what? I'm fucking not coming back now. I'm just going to cruise around the world. Everyone wants to see me put on really nice surfing displays. Might have a kid or two. [00:25:28] Speaker C: The thing is, Hanamoku, just go around doing your little surfing. [00:25:32] Speaker D: There's a reason why Philippe won two world titles. Every comp's not that pipe, mate. [00:25:37] Speaker C: Yeah, that's right. [00:25:38] Speaker D: So Steph is still, I think you seen at Trestles, mate, come from fifth, won a world title, she's still fundamentally the most dynamic surfer maneuvers wise, I. [00:25:51] Speaker A: Think, at girls, I wouldn't say she's the most dynamic. You can't compare her to Katie Simmons or she's the most stylish for sure. [00:25:59] Speaker C: But saw it three days ago. It's a change in the guard. [00:26:03] Speaker D: It is a change of the guard. But she can still get, she can link turns. [00:26:10] Speaker C: Half the guys, but no one is disputing, no one's incredible style. It's just Katie Simmers, Molly Picklam better, Lisa Kura. Who else was in the semis? Well, Bronte should have been there against Katie. [00:26:26] Speaker A: I can't remember who it was, but, mate, with Sierra Kerr and Aaron Brooks knocking on the man like it's, it's. They're done. [00:26:35] Speaker C: They've been talking about this new era of women's surfing coming in. She wasn't up to that level. But they've been talking about this new era of women's surfing. It is fucking love. [00:26:49] Speaker A: We've been talking about it, we've seen it. And yeah, it's here, man. I reckon that, I mean, it's obvious that that heat between Molly and Betty Lou was hands down the greatest surfing competitive heat, women's heat that's ever gone down, mate. I was sitting here on a Sunday morning with my new little shedquarters, tv on the exercise bike, watching a heat. [00:27:12] Speaker C: Escape the family, mate. [00:27:14] Speaker A: Yeah, and mate, flick Palmatier and Laura andever on commentary and they were like tearing up watching the heat. I was feeling the. [00:27:22] Speaker C: Was losing a shit. [00:27:23] Speaker A: I was feeling it as well because it was just like, you know what? I can feel the emotion of watching something truly groundbreaking. It was like a real pivotal moment in surfing going, fuck, this is happening right now. And I was pretty pumped. And not to mention the soft spot that we got for Molly because she's been in this very shedquarters and gave us her time of day. We got a lot of love for Molly, so we're pretty proud she was part of that historic day. [00:27:55] Speaker C: Let's quickly just talk about our love of Molly is not to question. We think she's a fucking legend. She's an absolute champion of a human as well. Katie Simmons. Yeah, let's talk about her for a second. She is about. She's that small. She could literally fit in my shoe and have a little sleep. She's tiny, 40 kilos tiny, 40 kg wet. She was fucking packing. She was packing, packing it. And holy shit, her fucking skill level is unbelievable. [00:28:36] Speaker A: It was epic. She rose to the occasion. But to be fair and to stay consistent with my australian bias, Molly should have won that. And she was, mate. [00:28:48] Speaker D: She needed the backup. She needed the backup. [00:28:50] Speaker A: Well, you know what it was. Yeah, but you know what, she got the high scoring one and then she had a hell wipeout, right? And then the wave after that wipeout, fucking copped a gnarly one on the head. And you know everyone's banging on about when you cop one on the head at backdoor on the inside, there's no water. She had to bail out. She got fucking pummeled, man. Like, I've seen her come up. She was rattled. Yeah, she was rattled. And then the fucking skis come steaming in a grabber and she had to fucking put her hand on the front of the ski. Nearly fucking took her head off, mate. So she's just gone down hard on takeoff. Would have got smacked in the guts over the falls, pummeled, come up, had to bail out within fuck all water, probably grabbed onto the reef, got ragged old and flipped and somersaulted again, short of air, scared. There would have been definitely a bit of panic there, I'm sure, because it was pretty heavy. And then when she pops up gasping for air, this fucking massive hawaiian dude just steaming full throttle. She literally had to put her hands on this fucking node. They only just stopped. He nearly fucking hit her in the head, mate. And then she jumps on because there's another wave coming and mate jumping on her whiskey and getting flicked around in the back with whitewater bouncing around like, mate, you're holding on for grim life. That's a lot of energy expenditure in a very short. [00:30:10] Speaker D: People would probably go in. [00:30:11] Speaker A: You'd fucking go in and then you're bouncing around on the back of the ski and then you get flicked out. And did you see when she got. [00:30:17] Speaker C: This is your third heat of the day, mind you, at pipeline. [00:30:22] Speaker A: And then when she got on the ski, she was so rattled that when she jumped off the ski, she jumped off way too early and got fucking nailed as well. It was like she jumped off at high speed to paddle back out and got pummeled. And, mate, that was it. She never recovered from that. So I reckon if it wasn't for that sequence of events, she would have got another sick one. But, mate, that just absolutely knocked the wind out of her as it would. So that's my Betty Lou. Otherwise should have fucking won. But now, fair play to Katie. [00:30:51] Speaker D: Betty Lou blew me away. I didn't think she was capable. [00:30:55] Speaker A: Blew me away. [00:30:56] Speaker C: Yeah, I've got the complete pitch for her, but I haven't got it loaded up here. [00:31:05] Speaker D: Yeah, I'll throw a scario there. Quick one Emmy, just. Before you ask, let's say classic pipe conditions, six to eight foot. And you got Bronte in the final against Molly. [00:31:16] Speaker C: Molly every day of the. Sorry, Bronte. [00:31:19] Speaker A: Well, Bronte hasn't had the opportunity to surf there yet. No, until it comes. Well, you know what though? I've heard a few people throw this theory out there over the last couple of years since the chicks have been out there, they're going, if you're a free surfer from Australia, even if you're a bloke over a whole season out at pipe, you're lucky to get like an opportunity or two. And they won't even be the sick ones. That's just like any opportunity, get a half decent one, right? So they're saying that by these chicks having, say, even if they get two heats out there a year and they get to have three or four opportunities, these crew are saying, well, that's the same as having a whole winter's worth of experience at pipe because obviously they don't get to watch everyone else. But the amount of actually waves they get to catch, it's what some people are getting in a whole season out there. So now that they're on their third year or whatever at pipe, the chicks, they're actually getting experience. And Bronte hasn't had those heats. She's behind the eight ball a bit there, but we know she can pack big left, fucking big left pit. There's no doubt about that. She hasn't had any pipe experience. [00:32:32] Speaker D: Maybe she could get J-O-B to paddle out with her and let her get a few ice like wrist did, like D'Souza did. [00:32:40] Speaker C: I've got no doubt that when bronze does get the opportunity out there, she's going to smash it, but she's going to send. Molly Picklam is best backhand trip right in the world right now. [00:32:49] Speaker A: Yep, for sure. And it was the grit and determination that she showed on that wave and that gets back to that Steph point. Yeah, Steph is the most beautiful surfer in the world, but she didn't have the mungrill that Molly showed by packing that pen. That was just. That was Mungrill mixed with skill and talent. But it was a lot of mungrill to just go and fucking going. [00:33:14] Speaker D: No, I agree with that. Speaking of mongrel. [00:33:16] Speaker A: Yeah, no, speaking of. No mongrel. [00:33:19] Speaker D: Speaking of Mongrel. [00:33:20] Speaker C: Barramir, before you do go there, the point I was about to make before, we've just spent our initial discussions about pipeline and all we've talked about is the women's side of the draw. [00:33:34] Speaker D: Fuck, yeah. [00:33:34] Speaker A: Well, it was. [00:33:36] Speaker C: Let's raise our beers to the fucking incredible charging and the incredible changing the guard and just the stepping up of the women at pipeline. It's fucking sick to watch. [00:33:46] Speaker A: Girls and, mate, back to that semi. What made it so great is that Molly got the ten and dominated. And then you just thought, oh, Betty Lou was going, okay, but it's the Molly show. She's just risen at another level and Betty Lou is not even the same league. And then fucking with a minute to go, she just turns and packs an absolute thump and backdoor one. And, mate, she almost got the score. Like, it could have easily have been the score. So it was fucking mental. [00:34:13] Speaker D: So you got the Molly, Betty and Katie. Who else is sort of there or below that? [00:34:24] Speaker A: I'll tell you who's below those three. The next Felipe Toledo. [00:34:28] Speaker D: He's not a chick, but. Well, how much of a gap do you think there is? Well, there's a lot of good surfers there, Brissa. And, jeez, there's a lot of talented surfers. [00:34:41] Speaker C: But can they seem like she was quite there? Yes, please, mate. Even though she's obviously spent a bit. Cloud break. Yeah. Excuse me. Lackey Peterson's not there. [00:34:56] Speaker D: Joanna Faye. [00:34:57] Speaker C: She's probably nowhere near it. Cheers, mate. [00:35:01] Speaker D: Tatiana Weston Webb. [00:35:03] Speaker C: She'll have a go. She has a there, mate. [00:35:07] Speaker A: But she didn't. [00:35:07] Speaker C: Well, it might have just been the one. She's got runs on the board at pipeline. [00:35:12] Speaker D: Tell me what you reckon of reckoning she's got a munger on the ads. [00:35:16] Speaker A: Yeah, I think she's got. [00:35:19] Speaker D: Think she's got Mungrill. [00:35:20] Speaker A: Not Molly level Mungrill, but Mungrill in, like, competitive, smaller mungrill waves. But I don't know if she's got the big wave mungrill. [00:35:28] Speaker D: No, I don't think either. [00:35:29] Speaker A: Yeah, you can't teach the mongrel, eh? That's the thing. You can teach them tactics, maybe improve the style. You can't get them. [00:35:36] Speaker D: The Tyler Wright veteran obviously got knocked out in the round of 16. [00:35:42] Speaker C: I didn't see that. She's got pipe credentials, so might have just had a bad heat or who knows? Who knows? But, yeah, I think Belu, Molly and Katie just seem like they're streets ahead of the other girls on the CT in those sort of waves. So it'd be interesting to see. Fucking send them out at big tropes later on in the year and send them out at big. Yeah, just get them into it. They've shown they can do it. Stop. [00:36:13] Speaker A: Fucking wonder how they're going to go at big sunset. Because big pipe is like a test of willpower in terms of steep technical ability, whereas sunset, I feel, is more strength and endurance. [00:36:29] Speaker C: Reading the lineup as well. [00:36:30] Speaker A: Reading the lineup. Lineup. If it's big, I wonder if we no longer have to question their determination or skill, but is it just a sheer amount of physical presence that might not be there for them to negotiate? Eight to ten foot. [00:36:47] Speaker C: Don't forget, with sunset, too, I saw a start today. There's been more women cts at sunset than every other venue, apart from Bells Beach, Huntington. Huntington, yep. So they've had a lot of cts out there. Not saying that these girls have got the experience out there, but they never. [00:37:05] Speaker A: Sent them out in big know, which. Now I feel like they're so. But you look at all those good sunset surfers from back in the day when it's big, like Kong and Sunny, like the big strong dudes. And you got those west shine. [00:37:19] Speaker C: Jody Cooper, of course. [00:37:21] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Very true. Ant Man Patterson. Jake Patterson. Suppose they're not that big, but they are strong little nuggets, aren't they? So, I don't know. Yeah, that's what I'm getting at, is. [00:37:31] Speaker C: Mate, they've both got thick necks, too. [00:37:33] Speaker A: Yeah, they do. And incredibly large testicles that keep them stuck to their boards. Have you ever gone and pushed Antman in the head? He doesn't fall over. [00:37:41] Speaker C: No, he's got that very, very low. [00:37:43] Speaker D: He's like a tripod. [00:37:48] Speaker A: This doesn't tip over. [00:37:49] Speaker C: Excess baggage for his cones or what? [00:37:52] Speaker A: Yeah, I've seen him drink like 58 beers and everyone else is falling over and his body tries to fall over, but it just doesn't. The eggs just keep him waited. [00:38:02] Speaker D: That's incredible. [00:38:04] Speaker C: He's passed out standing up. [00:38:07] Speaker A: Just sleep standing up. Cannot fall down like a giraffe when. [00:38:11] Speaker C: He goes to bed. Sleep at night. He has to actually weight his head down. [00:38:15] Speaker A: Yeah. He has to strap his head down to the bed to keep him down. [00:38:18] Speaker D: So, I've got a question for you both. When are we going to hook into Philippe? I'm just waiting for this section. [00:38:24] Speaker A: Let's just rip in, mate. Let's just rip in. Okay. [00:38:26] Speaker D: Reason why he pulled out a pipe. [00:38:28] Speaker C: What was the official. [00:38:30] Speaker D: What was the official. [00:38:32] Speaker A: Well, food poisoning. Yeah, he had food poisoning. What, you didn't know that? Well, I did, but up on the rig, you had no information, did you? [00:38:40] Speaker D: Was it a case of fucking taco Bell? [00:38:42] Speaker A: Like a bad. He was just shitting himself, obviously, but literally shitting himself. [00:38:47] Speaker C: He had a sahi bowl and just went, oh, fuck, yeah, I ain't getting out in this shit. [00:38:53] Speaker D: He must have saw the forecast. [00:38:56] Speaker A: He was scared of the day that he pulled out of. And that wasn't even that big. Like, you've seen the heat that he got. [00:39:02] Speaker C: I've got a theory on this. Do you want to hear it? [00:39:04] Speaker A: Okay. [00:39:04] Speaker C: So my theory is that he had a shit heat. Obviously wasn't packing nothing, but he took off in a couple of sizey ones, a couple of nice drops, but nowhere near the barrel. He's just gone, oh, fuck. Everybody just wants to see me pack big barrels, and I've not done that. So I'm going to go, I'd have a sahi bowl or whatever. And then he's looked deep, deep, deep into himself and gone, you know what? Everyone can criticize the wazzle all they want and I can, too. So, despite the fact that I've won two world titles at trestles, that doesn't legitimize me as a world title threat. And I do not want to win a third world title and equal Andy Irons, one of the greatest boardwriters in history of the world. So he's gone. I can't win three world titles at trestles and then disrespectful, disrespectful history, he's pulling out. It shows you what, despite when people think he has got some balls, because he's gone. Nah, I'm not doing that to Mick Fanning. [00:40:19] Speaker A: Nah, I don't believe that. Because it's a theory. I don't mind it though. Yeah, I like it. I like that you're giving it that much thought. [00:40:27] Speaker D: He comes across a decent human. [00:40:29] Speaker A: Yeah, mate, there's no one saying he's a bad guy, but I feel like if he was going to do that and you say he has got balls for doing it, then he should have just come out and said it. And that's, I reckon the biggest travesty of it all is I know me personally, if he just came out and said, mate, I'm scared of these waves, I don't want to get hurt. I got a family and it's just not in my wheelhouse to pack these sorts of waves, I would have been like, oh, well, fuck. I feel a bit disappointed that as a representative of our sport, as a two time world champ, it's probably not justified if he can't pack a six foot, six to eight foot pit at pipe. But I at least give him credit for just coming out and saying I'm scared, but by coming out and saying I got food poisoning when the whole fucking world knows it was a lame excuse, a lie. [00:41:21] Speaker D: I reckon that's weakest piss. [00:41:22] Speaker C: Food poisoning. You're still going out of pipe in a fucking world. [00:41:25] Speaker A: Exactly, mate. Like, what do you reckon he did. [00:41:27] Speaker D: Paddle out in the opening round? Obviously got a total heat score 1.77. [00:41:32] Speaker A: Yeah, mate, he just should have been open about it and I reckon he would have caught way less grief and everyone. You'd give him a bit of grief, but at least he'd have the balls to just say, man, fucking, I'm not up for it. And then you'd just be like, oh, well, it's a bit lame for a world champ, but good on you for not lying to the entire surfing world. So that's why he's copped it, man. [00:41:53] Speaker C: I reckon that's the whole thing. He's grown up in the wazzle kind of silent situation. He doesn't know how to be open and communicative. [00:42:01] Speaker A: I rewatched that heat. Which one? The Phil's heat where he bowed out. [00:42:06] Speaker D: Elimination. Yeah, sorry, the opening round. [00:42:08] Speaker A: Yeah, the opening round. Because he didn't even go on the elimination. No, I watched the opening round, and he was just fully heading for the shoulder, all the rest of it, and sort of towards the end of the. [00:42:19] Speaker D: Heat, there was Sammy poopo in that. [00:42:20] Speaker A: Heat, and it was Sammy Poopo, and they were paddling for a backdoor wave. And, you know when you see someone in the lineup and they're not the best surfer or they're fucking a bit scared or whatever, and a good one comes and they're sort of in the spot and they paddle and they do that thing with their head where they try to push their head up and down to make it look like they're paddling really hard to get it, but then they don't catch it. [00:42:46] Speaker C: What I do is I look really annoyed when I miss it. [00:42:49] Speaker A: That's what he did. [00:42:50] Speaker C: I mean, other people in that situation. [00:42:53] Speaker A: Not me, but, mate, he fully did that on a backdoor one. Gave it that real hard paddle and pushed his head up and down as if he's, like, paddling really hard, and then looked angry and annoyed. That Sammy pooper got it. Yeah. God damn it. And I was just like, fucking, that's our world champion. That's our world. Our multiple world champions, two time world champions. [00:43:16] Speaker C: Seinfeld reference here. George Costania's. Castanza's talking to Joey and Joe's saying. George is saying, I'll never do any work. Saying, well, how do you get away with said, well, I just pretend that I'm really busy. Like, annoyed, annoyed. I'm just like, oh, fuck. [00:43:33] Speaker A: Works. Just every time someone walks past or something, you got to look annoyed and angry. [00:43:38] Speaker C: Annoyed and just like. [00:43:40] Speaker A: And they're just like, oh, man, he's so busy. [00:43:41] Speaker C: Look how pissed off he is. I had a boss like that. Exactly that shit. And he's gone. I fucking know you're doing a. Try that shit on. [00:43:49] Speaker A: And another good Costanza, one that could play into Phil's decision here. Famous line, George Costanza, it's not a lie if you believe it. His famous words maybe like, food poisoning. Can you imagine Andy Irons going into pipe and having food poisoning going, it's bullshit. I'm not going to paddle out because I got food poisoning. Mate, he'd have shit running down his leg out of his white rising sun board, short be stained brown. And he'd be paddling out there. He'd be squirting in the barrel, mate, to quote that. Ain't that swell? There'd be rinse corn. It'd be the dirtiest corn you've ever, that's why. [00:44:24] Speaker C: Remember that pipeline when it was brown barrels run off. It was because of Andy Irons he had. Fucking food poisoning. [00:44:31] Speaker A: He was just shitting himself. Michael Ho. [00:44:34] Speaker D: I think it was ten to twelve. [00:44:36] Speaker A: Foot, fractured left wrist. Paddled out, went to the hospital, got. [00:44:40] Speaker D: A fractured left wrist. [00:44:41] Speaker A: Yeah, went out. [00:44:42] Speaker D: Not runny bum. No, you need your wrist. Imagine grabbing broken bum, grabing your rail, standing up. [00:44:48] Speaker A: That's right. So that's why he shouldn't have lied. [00:44:50] Speaker D: Kelly Slater, broken foot, chop. [00:44:53] Speaker A: Tommy Carroll had some fucking hell injury as well and was out there, mate. And that's the problem. [00:45:01] Speaker D: He should have just down home, mate. [00:45:03] Speaker A: He's never going to limb it down. [00:45:04] Speaker C: Carroll didn't surf a heat without having stitches. [00:45:08] Speaker A: You know what, fucking, mate, this very heat. You know who was surfing with stitches in? Jordy fucking Smith. Five stitches in his foot from the first round. He's literally, mate, there was photographic evidence. He's like, oh, my foot sore. Fucking surfing out there with stitches in his foot. I mean, that's worse than a Leaky bum, right? So fucking yeah, what is it? Yeah, five stitches in the foot and then clinches the heat with 20 seconds to go. I don't know. [00:45:39] Speaker D: Baron did. [00:45:41] Speaker C: Jordy was looking good. [00:45:42] Speaker A: Yeah, he clinched the heat with 20 seconds left with five stitches in his foot. So how can you compare that to Toledo going, I've got a leaky bum. It's bullshit. So it's pretty hectic. But from the other point of view, as much as I love to hate on the Brazos, I feel pretty bad for Toledo because it's nothing against him personally. Don't know him or anything. And he's good dude and a good dad and all the rest of it. So I don't know him. But, mate, how would you be feeling with, to me it's more million status in the world. He's literally had 3 million people just go, you're a pussy, you're a pussy, you're a pussy. Imagine how that would feel. All these podcasts, all these surfing websites, all the comments, everyone, mate. And then what do you know? A day and a half later he fucking pulls out for the year. I'm not surprised, man. That's some serious. [00:46:34] Speaker C: That's exactly right. [00:46:35] Speaker A: Bullying, man. [00:46:36] Speaker D: Gnarly I thought he would have insurfed his main sponsors event at sunset. [00:46:43] Speaker A: Yeah, that's pretty gnarly. So you combine all that bullying, the entire surfing world, just calling you out, you've lied, you've scared, and then to top it off, you've just seen the chicks pack waves fucking heavier. They're like these 19 year old chicks and all of a sudden you're like, I'm fucking out of here, man. [00:47:03] Speaker C: I'm gone. [00:47:04] Speaker A: I'm gone. And he might not even come back from that. [00:47:07] Speaker C: That's part of what I was saying. [00:47:09] Speaker A: Hard to come back. [00:47:10] Speaker C: The legacy. He doesn't want to leave the legacy as the three time old champion that didn't pack a wave bigger than pack for the pipe. [00:47:16] Speaker A: Yeah. And to be fair, last year, I can't remember about the year before, but last year, going in a trestle is like he had already won if it was a normal calendar year and regardless of pipe. So in a way, you can't blame him. It's not like he cheated or anything. He still would have won that world title. It just so happened to be that it's tailor made with this trestle's final, it's tailor made for him. So it's not like you can blame. [00:47:44] Speaker D: Mean apart from Philippe. Let's just probably get off Philippe now. But there was a lot of know who didn't make the. Besides Baron and John, there's a lot of surfers. All the guys in the CT were packing it. There's a lot of good heats, a lot of good efforts. Conor O'Leary made the quarters, packed a couple of good ones. Liam O'Brien. [00:48:11] Speaker A: Yeah, he was charging. Cal Robo packed a couple. [00:48:15] Speaker D: Yeah, Cal Robbo. Did you see Cade Madsen's wipeout? [00:48:19] Speaker B: Wipeout. [00:48:19] Speaker A: That was brutal. [00:48:20] Speaker D: Having a crack, young lad. [00:48:21] Speaker A: What did fucking Snake tell him? Fuck it. Make sure you only take off if you're late and don't paddle too hard for him or something. Well, what sort of coaching was that? Snake. [00:48:31] Speaker D: Snake. Jesus. Just put your head down, bum up and fucking go hard. [00:48:35] Speaker A: He must have just told. Nah, just take it easy. Don't paddle too hard. You want a late drop, mate? Get more points maybe. [00:48:40] Speaker D: I was just thinking, mate. Yeah, classic. But I just lost the name of the guy. I was going to speak about his rookie of the year last year, Ian Gentil. Seemed to manage to get through the quarters as well. [00:48:54] Speaker A: He got to the semis, didn't he? [00:48:55] Speaker D: Quarters or semis, maybe. [00:48:56] Speaker A: I think he bowed out in the semis against John and. [00:49:00] Speaker D: Yeah, there's some great tube rides. I mean, Jordy had a bit of a dud heat against Baron, but, I mean, you're going up against the future prince of pipeline, so it was probably a bit hard to. [00:49:12] Speaker A: Baron Mamaya, in his post heat interview was absolutely spewing. They didn't run on the big day. He was claiming they should have run. He said it was pumping. [00:49:22] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:49:22] Speaker A: So that's pretty hectic. [00:49:24] Speaker C: If that happened, he may not have won. [00:49:26] Speaker A: Go. Probably would have. [00:49:27] Speaker D: He would have picked the good ones. [00:49:29] Speaker A: How about a couple of low lights? Jacob Wilcox, mates, you're talking about his heat. He absolutely dominated that heat. [00:49:39] Speaker D: Fuck. [00:49:39] Speaker A: He was just nailing all those backdoor waves. [00:49:42] Speaker D: How good did he look, though? [00:49:45] Speaker A: No, it was. Dora had him up against the wall and then just a minute and a half left. Got sold a dummy, went it and then right behind it, best wave of the heat. Job done. Lost it. He would have been absolutely spewing. I was spewing. He put on such a clinic, riding those back doorways, super comfortable, because if it had got through that day, then he would have been through to that pumping day and then, mate, he would have been packing big pipe pits and he would have been in the mix. [00:50:15] Speaker D: So what do you get? A quarter finish? [00:50:17] Speaker A: No, he didn't do it. Yeah, no, it wasn't good at all. It was fucked and he didn't deserve to lose. He surfed really well. And then Jack Robo was another disappointment, too. West Aussies had a bit of a shocker, really? Yeah, it's pretty spewing about that. My fantasy. Cop to fucking hiding because I just put everything on the two West Aussies. [00:50:39] Speaker D: I'm glad you brought it up. [00:50:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:41] Speaker C: Fucking take it away, Team T. Bones of me. Hanging out with his California mate, old surf dad. So getting all the guys on what you do. [00:50:50] Speaker D: I mean, I came 16th in the BSP league. I was pretty stoked with that. Oh, yeah, where'd you come? Ads. [00:50:57] Speaker A: I think I was in the 60s, mate. [00:50:59] Speaker D: What about you? Nami. Third in the world in 1999, where I was. [00:51:05] Speaker C: I was also 16th two years later in the world. [00:51:09] Speaker D: There you go. [00:51:10] Speaker C: I don't mean. [00:51:11] Speaker A: You know what I'd. Whatever. [00:51:12] Speaker D: It's only the first comp. [00:51:14] Speaker A: What I did do, though, I noticed in my fantasy league, I picked all four finalists. I thought that was all right. [00:51:19] Speaker C: Good on you. [00:51:20] Speaker A: That's not bad. But I made. I thought that's pretty obvious. [00:51:23] Speaker D: Pretty obvious. [00:51:24] Speaker A: I thought Baron was obvious. Was it? [00:51:26] Speaker C: I picked two of the four. No, I didn't. [00:51:29] Speaker D: He was semi finalist last year. [00:51:31] Speaker A: I guess I can't argue with you because you flogged me. [00:51:34] Speaker C: I think I'm last. [00:51:35] Speaker D: You didn't think Baron was obvious? [00:51:37] Speaker C: I'm last in our league. I think it was pretty obvious, but. [00:51:40] Speaker A: I didn't know about a final. I mean, Jack. [00:51:42] Speaker D: Now, tell me what happened. [00:51:43] Speaker A: Well, Jack fucked me because I had. [00:51:45] Speaker C: Him as doing the classic betters thing. Oh, yeah, it's fucking obvious? Yeah. I just put a million dollars on black. Yeah, it's fucking obvious. It was going to land on. [00:51:53] Speaker A: Fucking idiot. [00:51:54] Speaker C: If it was obvious, everyone would have done it. You clown. [00:51:56] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't know. [00:51:57] Speaker D: Well, I got a lot more people in front of me. [00:52:00] Speaker A: I got sunk by having Jack Robbo as my power surfer, and that cooked. [00:52:05] Speaker C: I obviously had John John as your power surfer. [00:52:08] Speaker D: Yeah, so did I, actually. [00:52:10] Speaker C: But the thing is. [00:52:10] Speaker A: Couldn't help myself, mate. West, Ozzy one pipe last year, he's Jack Robbo. He can do anything you can. [00:52:17] Speaker C: Carissa is my power surfer in the women, and she got knocked down in fucking similar waves to shallows. [00:52:24] Speaker A: That, Molly, is my power surfer in the. I fucking nailed it. So I thought I was going to be doing all right, but no, I didn't. [00:52:30] Speaker C: Just all of you people out there, as a former top three finisher in the world, just remember, it's a long season. It's not just five. It's not just the cut. Although I might miss the cut at this point. It's the full season. [00:52:45] Speaker D: Well, you celebrate your wins. [00:52:47] Speaker A: Namu. [00:52:47] Speaker C: Of course you do, because you never. [00:52:48] Speaker D: Know when your next one will be. [00:52:49] Speaker A: Maybe the fantasy you got to celebrate. If you're not in the top half of the fantasy at Maggie's cut, you just get cut, you're out. [00:52:58] Speaker C: Just get. [00:52:58] Speaker A: No more fantasy. [00:53:01] Speaker C: You got to celebrate your victories because the Wazle won't. They won't give you any fucking prizes still. [00:53:07] Speaker A: Well, one last interesting thing on pipe. Frederico Marias has had seven starts at pipeline. Seven years. You know how many heats he's made it through in seven years? [00:53:18] Speaker D: I'd say 10. [00:53:20] Speaker A: Fucking zero, mate. [00:53:21] Speaker D: Is that right? [00:53:22] Speaker A: Has not made a heat at pipe in seven years. That's pretty gnarly. [00:53:26] Speaker C: He's a classic journeyman, isn't he? [00:53:28] Speaker A: Yeah, I know. [00:53:29] Speaker D: Unlike Leonardo, he seemed to make a few heats this year. [00:53:32] Speaker A: He was, mate. He almost stitched up John John. That was a good inning. [00:53:36] Speaker D: Hey, what happened to Canoa Jake's boy? [00:53:38] Speaker C: He got a 9th, maybe not too much more than that. So I got a 17th as well. [00:53:44] Speaker D: What's that Turtle Bay, you should be staying in the quickie house with the fuck. [00:53:50] Speaker C: Get amongst it, Turtle Bay. Get amongst it. [00:53:52] Speaker D: I'm sure Snake wasn't complaining, but I'll. [00:53:55] Speaker C: Tell you what, summer's upon us and the cheeky monkey beers are going down beautifully. What do you boys reckon? [00:54:03] Speaker A: Mate, I'm on the hard ginger beer right now. It's a ripper. Got to love a bit of ginger beer in summer for those hot afternoons. And they're stiff. They taste real good. You can get 10% off if you go into vass in the industrial area. Tell them barreled surf podcast in you and you'll get 10% off takeaway sales. Get it in you. [00:54:20] Speaker C: Yeah, cheeky monkey. [00:54:21] Speaker A: G'day, everybody. It's bugs here and you're listening to barreled surf podcast. I like to drink forester wines. They taste fucking good. They're made on Wildwood Road. It's one of the best places in the world, southwest of Western Australia. And if you go online, type in barreled to the coupon in the sales department, you get 25% off. It is a really good deal. Type in barreled and save yourself some hell money. Get some hell wine. [00:54:53] Speaker C: These days, has he? What about you, t bone? [00:54:56] Speaker A: T bones, mate. He's in that good a nick. He just doesn't even need to go to the physio. He's an absolute weapon. But for the rest of us down south physio, go see Trev. He's an absolute surfing specialist. He's been doing all sorts of weird and wonderful things in the world of surfing, traveling all around the globe, because everyone knows you can't froth harder than a Trevor frothens. Brown at down South Physio, he's on. [00:55:17] Speaker C: The wazzle, he's on the tools at back at Dunsborough. So get down to down south physio. I don't know about you guys, but I've been absolutely stoked with my Sharkeye's wetsuit. Best in the business. [00:55:27] Speaker A: Yeah, they're pretty sick. So comfy. And they're bringing out a new range. It's a more affordable range, I believe it's going to be direct to consumer online. It's called the Mungrill range. [00:55:36] Speaker C: Oh, the mungrill, yeah. [00:55:37] Speaker A: Which could be good in summer when you just want to really cover up from the sun a bit and not be too hot. So check out Sharkeye's wetsuits. They're killer. [00:55:45] Speaker C: All right, boys, you ready for the new segment? [00:55:47] Speaker D: Yeah, bring it on. [00:55:48] Speaker C: All right, ladies and gentlemen, a new segment of Barrelserve podcast. We are harking back to the days of the old radio serial Monty Python, all the rest of it. And we have got a new series for you called Adzies AI adventures. Each way, we're going to pump in some words into the AI chat engine interpretation, as is AI's interpretation of AI's adventures. [00:56:13] Speaker A: So Namu's going to type in like a sentence that is to do with me or t bone or himself surfing. And then AI draws a weird picture and also gives you a storyline behind it. Like, he types in a script. He's typed in a script. So what did you type in as our first show? [00:56:33] Speaker C: Me a surfer called Adam on a huge wave with a single fin surfboard. [00:56:36] Speaker A: And then it just pumps out a script. That's so bizarre. [00:56:38] Speaker C: Yeah, this probably sounds. This is like it sounded to you guys when I was telling you about you. [00:56:43] Speaker A: You were trying to sell it to us somewhere. [00:56:45] Speaker C: Fucked. [00:56:46] Speaker A: We weren't even listening. We just kept watching. [00:56:51] Speaker C: You're going to start. You're obviously Adam and I'm the narrator. [00:56:56] Speaker A: Okay. All right. [00:56:57] Speaker C: This is called riding giants. All right. The sun hangs low on the horizon, casting a warm glow across the beach. Adam, a rugged surfer with a tim and look in his eyes, stands at the water's edge, scratching his balls, scanning the waves with anticipation and scratching his balls. [00:57:14] Speaker D: This is it. [00:57:15] Speaker A: My balls feel amazing. The perfect wave is coming. [00:57:20] Speaker C: Adam grabs his balls and his single fin surfboard and charges into the water, the salt spray mingling with his excitement. And his balls. [00:57:27] Speaker A: Come on, just a little bit farther. A little bit farthering with these balls, mind you. [00:57:34] Speaker C: Adam's paddled out. His muscles are rippling beneath his tan skin as he navigates the wrong way. As his gaze is fixed on a distance swirl. With a final best of effort, Adam reaches the crest of the wave, his heart pounding in his chest. Let's do this. As the wave begins to break, Adam springs his feet. Balancing effortlessly on the narrow board. Adam cuts through the water with precision. The single fin beneath his board make much sense. [00:58:00] Speaker A: AI. [00:58:01] Speaker C: Yeah. What are you doing? AI? Guiding him like a rudder. With each turn and twist, he dances along the water's edge, a master of his craft. [00:58:09] Speaker B: Woohoo. [00:58:10] Speaker C: The roar of the ocean fills Adam's ears as he rides away, a wide, wild grin spreading across his face. For a moment, time seems to stand still as Adam and the wave become one. A perfect fusion of man and nature. [00:58:24] Speaker A: This is incredible. [00:58:27] Speaker C: As the wave begins crest, Adam carbs the final arc, savoring every second of the exhilarating ride. Adam rides the wave until it finally breaks. [00:58:36] Speaker A: He rides the wave until it finally breaks. [00:58:38] Speaker C: Finally breaks on the shore, leaving him floating in the ocean, heartbounding with adrenaline. [00:58:44] Speaker A: That was amazing. [00:58:45] Speaker C: With a sense of deep satisfaction coming from his balls, Adam paddles back to the shore, the setting sun casting a warm glow over the ocean. There you go. Adam adds his AI adventures. [00:58:58] Speaker A: We may or may not have added testicles to the entire script, but there. [00:59:01] Speaker C: Wasn'T balls in that. There you go. That was apart from that. Completely written by. To be continued to be continued next. [00:59:07] Speaker A: Week when T Bone enters the league. [00:59:10] Speaker C: Well, I'm going to tell you what happens next week. T bone steals, adds his girl. [00:59:15] Speaker A: Fucking prick. T bone. [00:59:17] Speaker D: I wouldn't do that yet. [00:59:18] Speaker A: I don't know, you know, a bit of jujitsu. I wouldn't be surprised. He knows a bit. He'd wrestle me and then wrestle my chick. [00:59:26] Speaker C: Right, boys? We might get a bit of a. [00:59:28] Speaker A: All right, that's pretty interesting. [00:59:33] Speaker D: Cool. [00:59:34] Speaker C: I think we're the first surf podcast that's doing a radio serial based on AI. [00:59:40] Speaker A: Probably the last, but that might be the death. [00:59:43] Speaker C: We've been going for five years. [00:59:44] Speaker A: That might be it. [00:59:45] Speaker C: We may have just jumped the shark. [00:59:47] Speaker A: Could just put us into the Internet stratosphere with AI. Will somehow listen to us regurgitating AI and just latch onto it. [00:59:56] Speaker D: Maybe we just will stop doing the podcast and let the AI do it. [00:59:59] Speaker A: Just do the whole thing, AI. We'll just type in one sentence each and just press play and that's it. We'll just sit back and drink monkeys and take it easy. [01:00:06] Speaker D: Philippe pulls out a pipe due to runny bum. [01:00:10] Speaker C: I've actually got a little bit of a preview. [01:00:13] Speaker A: Come on, save it for next week. Come on, let's talk. [01:00:18] Speaker C: Safe to say t Bones in this. All right, I can tell you what I've got, and it goes a little bit like this. Power surfer for me is Ethan Ewing. [01:00:31] Speaker A: There's some good choices. [01:00:33] Speaker C: It's got to be. I've got Ethan Ewing and Jack Robbo, which I think most people probably would. [01:00:39] Speaker A: You would. Jack Robbo is not in the top round pick, though. [01:00:43] Speaker D: Fucking TB. [01:00:45] Speaker A: Ethan Ewing. John Florence is my top two. I mean, how could he not pick those? [01:00:49] Speaker C: John John has never had a particularly good run at sunset. [01:00:52] Speaker B: Hasn't he? [01:00:52] Speaker C: No. [01:00:53] Speaker A: Are you sure about. He won a non CT event there. [01:00:57] Speaker C: I don't think he's ever even finaled as a CT. As a CT. [01:01:01] Speaker A: There was some other. It was like one of those other ones that he won I think maybe to qualify or something back in the day. So he's won at sunset and his surfing suits it. [01:01:10] Speaker C: He's obviously got the. [01:01:14] Speaker D: American. [01:01:14] Speaker C: It always just depends on his motivation. Can he be fucked? [01:01:17] Speaker A: Yeah, well, I think eight foot and the forecast after this huge swell is sort of looking like perfect eight foot sunset for, like, four days. So it's going to be really looking forward to this comp. [01:01:30] Speaker C: Who have you got in your top tier for the boys? [01:01:32] Speaker D: Well, I've got Ethan and Baron. Baron obviously won it last year. And Baron Ramir, well, it's fucking obvious. [01:01:38] Speaker A: He'S going to win, isn't it? [01:01:39] Speaker D: That's fucking obvious. Obviously. Ethan, my power surfer, lays the best hammers. Doesn't matter what right hander it is. [01:01:49] Speaker A: All right, well, I had Ethan as my power surfer, but I've just changed it up to Jack Robbo. [01:01:56] Speaker D: Hey, shout out to old Surfdad, old Dave. He's putting out some sick little YouTube videos. I don't know if you boys ever watch his fantasy videos. They're pretty cool. [01:02:08] Speaker A: I generally go to work when I'm at work. [01:02:13] Speaker D: When you go to bears. [01:02:16] Speaker C: Just checking the safety situation on YouTube. [01:02:19] Speaker A: Safety is watching safety videos, dad. [01:02:21] Speaker C: It's all good. Okay? [01:02:22] Speaker A: No worries. [01:02:25] Speaker C: I've seen a couple of his videos. I wouldn't have known about it, obviously, if you hadn't been on there, but seems like a pretty funny dude. [01:02:32] Speaker A: Have you boys put Jacob Wilcox in your fantasy team? [01:02:37] Speaker D: No, I've gone a full natural. [01:02:40] Speaker A: Well, I read a stat somewhere today saying that a goofy hasn't won at sunset in, like, 30 years or something. I've got 25 years or something. [01:02:47] Speaker D: I do have one goofy, though. Who? It's not Jacob. [01:02:51] Speaker C: Gabriel Medina. [01:02:52] Speaker D: No, it's Cole Hellshman. [01:02:54] Speaker A: Oh, big, strong nugget of a man. [01:02:57] Speaker D: Big dude. [01:02:58] Speaker A: It goes back to that conversation we had earlier about strength at sunset. [01:03:02] Speaker C: He's got a Ricky Bobby 33rd in his first ever event. [01:03:06] Speaker A: Unexpected, was it? [01:03:07] Speaker C: Yeah, but it happens super quick. Before you know it, you're out. All right, so this is my full team. Ethan Ewing. I've got Barramir in there at the moment. Jack Robinson, Griffin Colapinto, Kanoa Igarashi, Gabriel Medina, Eli Hanneman, and Kyo Ibelli as my full roster. [01:03:32] Speaker D: Kai's a good pick, mate. [01:03:34] Speaker C: Well, I mean, it's a no brainer TSA. If you can get any value out of them at all, you're doing well. And in my late dares, I've got Molly Picklam as my double power surfer. She's obviously the carryover champ from last year, Gabriel Bryan, has done some good things at sunset in the past. Bruce Hennessy, also a former champ at sunset. And I've got a bit of a ruffy in TSC, but it's supposed to be ruffies. It's safer. McCulloch, winner at Haliuba, which is obviously a pretty different wave, but there's some similarities there. Yep. [01:04:12] Speaker A: I've gone pickles for the power surfer and Tiera. So it's all about that. [01:04:16] Speaker D: Easy choice. [01:04:17] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, yeah, I think so. She's on a heater. Be feeling pretty good. Pissed off that she almost got run over by a freaking jet ski in her final and nearly died. [01:04:26] Speaker C: Yeah. Had to do the full. [01:04:29] Speaker A: I'm down with that one. [01:04:30] Speaker C: Hands on the bonnet. Cool. T bone. Anything else to add on that? [01:04:33] Speaker B: No. [01:04:34] Speaker D: I've got Jack Crosby, Liam O'Brien and Maddie McGilvro in the audience. [01:04:39] Speaker A: Yeah, I didn't realize. Have they transitioned? Have they? [01:04:44] Speaker C: I'll tell you what, I was looking at the yelling at borders this weekend. They got a cash prize, and I think at this stage there's only a few entrants. So I was thinking of transitioning. [01:04:52] Speaker D: Identify myself as a. [01:04:57] Speaker A: Mates. Yeah. [01:04:59] Speaker C: All right. [01:05:00] Speaker A: Move on, Steve. [01:05:01] Speaker C: Move on to the clives. All right, let's do the clive. Hammer cups and round everything up with a bit of positivity. I've got a couple of good clives today. [01:05:10] Speaker D: Take it away hard, mate. [01:05:12] Speaker A: Go hard. [01:05:12] Speaker C: All right, well, shall I start? [01:05:14] Speaker D: Yep. [01:05:15] Speaker C: Okay. So we're in the midst of summer here, and last couple of weekends, I've spent a bit of time down at yelling up. I was down at the Woolworth state titles all weekend, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and it absolutely blew me away. How, if you're listening from afar, yelling up is a beautiful beach and all the rest of it. And for some reason, the shire over the last couple of years have gone. Do you know what? It's the busiest beach in the southwest. Let's reduce the number of car parks for some reason. So let's do that. On Saturday afternoon, when I left, I counted 17. No less than 17. Backpack of ants. 17. [01:06:01] Speaker D: You're going to say that? [01:06:02] Speaker C: Yeah. 17, yeah. And, I mean, they were camping, essentially. They had their little card tables out. [01:06:09] Speaker D: And kumbaya, fucking mongo drums. [01:06:13] Speaker C: There was hacky sack hackies being sacked everywhere and posters of Frederico Mariah stuck. [01:06:18] Speaker A: On the wall of their van. [01:06:22] Speaker C: He's the Kumbaya lord of the backpacker, surely. Frederico Mariah, can I just say. Go on, Matt. [01:06:28] Speaker D: Can I just say that when I was traveling through Europe, I did actually sleep in Mandaka outside the church where I wasn't supposed to, so I can. [01:06:38] Speaker A: Steal in holy water to fill up your. [01:06:41] Speaker C: Hey, we've all done it, mate. 17. [01:06:45] Speaker A: I know. [01:06:48] Speaker C: About 40 car parts in the whole. [01:06:49] Speaker D: I'm not disagreeing with it because that was part of my clive as well. [01:06:53] Speaker A: Namu. [01:06:55] Speaker D: Continue with your clive, mate. [01:06:56] Speaker C: But I mean, what are you going to do, though? [01:07:00] Speaker A: You know the weird thing about this whole thing about all these back nazo. Yeah. All these things with the backpackers and like, my surf the other day, it was like hardly any australian accents in the car park and it was pretty crowded. But then all the hospitality and all these businesses down here are still claiming they don't have enough workers to fill the roles of waiters and barmen and dishwasher. [01:07:20] Speaker C: I don't need to go out. [01:07:21] Speaker A: You love going out. You're a social Butterfly. [01:07:23] Speaker C: And trigger home. [01:07:24] Speaker A: So it's sort of weird that it seems like it's overrun in the car parks, but then all the businesses are claiming it's just because all the young Aussies are like, I'm not fucking washing dishes, I'm going to the mines. [01:07:34] Speaker C: Young going FiFO. [01:07:36] Speaker A: I think that's what it must be because you need those backpackers, man, to service the hospitality industry, right? [01:07:43] Speaker C: And labor, that's fine, but there should be some sort of limit to go to the beach. That's hard. Yeah, don't go surfing and don't stay. [01:07:51] Speaker A: In the vineyard and pick grapes while we go surfing. [01:07:54] Speaker C: It's one thing with fucking peppermint Grove residents and all the rest of it, taking our parts at yelling up but stinking, bloody juggling italian backpackers. [01:08:04] Speaker D: I agree. If you drive there now, they'll be there. [01:08:07] Speaker C: No offense to you. [01:08:07] Speaker A: Shout out Forrester estate Winery for letting a few of their backpackers to come in and pick. Stay on their property. [01:08:13] Speaker C: Yes. [01:08:14] Speaker A: Park their vans up there. They've got an abalone. [01:08:17] Speaker C: What you want to do is put a steering bar on the car so they can't actually leave the old club lock. [01:08:23] Speaker A: Exactly. Just take their tires. One of them kicking around somewhere, rip their tires off. [01:08:28] Speaker D: Actually, a couple of backpackers came around and gave a mate of mine a hand to lift his spa. [01:08:33] Speaker A: There you go. They got their advantages. [01:08:37] Speaker C: Hey, we've all backpacked. Yeah, but I don't. Car parts are a premium. 17. [01:08:45] Speaker A: Yelling up. Yeah, that's car parking. [01:08:47] Speaker D: There was probably about ten this afternoon when I had my swimmer yelling up. Yeah, and I was just looking at. [01:08:53] Speaker C: And it sounds like it's all over wa when I was in Exmouth, when we were in ex mouth last July, what's the little rolling wave? And it's fucking and you can't get a spot. [01:09:06] Speaker A: And you're like, man, I've been working all year. I got my drag me family up here kicking and fucking screaming the whole way up here. School holidays go elsewhere. I want me little way. And then you've got to park all the way down the road, lug all your shit down because some dude's just been sunning his. [01:09:21] Speaker C: I think I actually picked you up, what do you call it at one point, didn't I? [01:09:25] Speaker A: Yeah, he did. Full anal, bleaching down. [01:09:30] Speaker C: Bleaching. [01:09:31] Speaker A: Fucking half every day when we're lugging all our kids luggage up. Yeah. [01:09:36] Speaker D: One dude cutting his toenails as I walked past. [01:09:39] Speaker A: Did he flick them at you? [01:09:43] Speaker D: Not only you're in a fucking bongo backpacker van, you're fucking flicking your fucking toenails on me as I'm walking past. [01:09:49] Speaker C: Wow, that's kind of next level, mate. [01:09:52] Speaker A: Pretty funny. [01:09:53] Speaker C: That's my clive Palmer. [01:09:55] Speaker A: It's been lots of people's clives recently. [01:09:57] Speaker C: Yeah. And the other thing I've got is this might sound like pretty sort of mean, but wheat, I'm pretty grumpy, so get fucked. No, this thing got me today was I'm all for being considerate on the road, but this person here on the way to the school drop off this morning, literally stopped so someone could driving along Gifford Road literally stopped so someone could go across the intersection in a car. [01:10:36] Speaker A: Stopped. [01:10:37] Speaker C: So there's like twelve cars behind and 50 k's an hour stopped. I nearly ran into the back of them and the only reason they stopped was to let someone across. [01:10:48] Speaker A: Being courteous. But it's not the road rules. [01:10:50] Speaker C: Too courteous? Too courteous. [01:10:52] Speaker A: You just stick to the road rules. [01:10:53] Speaker C: Everyone else. [01:10:54] Speaker D: Was it a hot chick that walked. [01:10:55] Speaker A: Across the road or in another car? No, it was a car. Yeah, I know. [01:10:59] Speaker D: Who did he stop for? [01:11:00] Speaker A: Was it another car? [01:11:01] Speaker C: I know the scenario that you see. [01:11:03] Speaker A: You go to OlC. You don't. [01:11:05] Speaker C: It's a fucking dozen green Acres road. You know, green. [01:11:09] Speaker A: Yeah. But it's that whole network of that primary school with all those little corners and intersections and there's this crazy extra courteous thing going where there's just unwritten law that one car turns in and one car goes. One car turns in, one car goes, right. And it's like. That's not the road rules. No fucking road goes and then. So it messes you up. [01:11:30] Speaker C: I understand that one to a certain extent, because it's just bottleneck to fuck cars. Bottled neck. [01:11:35] Speaker A: It's still. [01:11:37] Speaker C: We are driving along the road. There's no precedent for this. And 500 meters away, disadvantaging all the cars behind, there wasn't like there was a lineup of cars behind this person. [01:11:49] Speaker A: They're in that courteous zone, and it's catching the unawares driver behind, because it's something that shouldn't be happening. It's out of the blue. [01:11:56] Speaker C: So my message here to drivers of the world is, be courteous, but also think of the other cunts behind you. [01:12:02] Speaker A: Be courteous to your asshole. [01:12:05] Speaker D: Now what? Job Olc, mate, they just follow the road rules. [01:12:11] Speaker A: No, you just don't have as many corners up there. That's why we got to navigate through, like, fucking 20 turns to get up to that. It's the worst fucking spot, that school. But anyway, that won't make a lot of sense to anyone who's not, mate. I've got two clives, two quick ones. The booking system in Xmouth. To get to your xmouth fucking winter holidays is a fucking nightmare, mate. I don't know if you guys have ever done it. It's a government website. Deport site. God, it's fucking brutal. You drive with you six months out from when you want your holiday, you got to be up at midnight, 180 days. When the clock ticks midnight, you've got. [01:12:51] Speaker C: To be up at midnight. You've got to have three bird feathers in your bowl to your right. You've got to have a key, a chain, and a fucking. [01:12:59] Speaker A: You got to have holy water dipping on your nuts. It is so brutal. I got up four nights in a. [01:13:05] Speaker C: Row singing in the back of my. [01:13:06] Speaker A: Christmas holidays at midnight. By 12:00 and 15 seconds, they're gone. [01:13:13] Speaker C: Gone. [01:13:13] Speaker A: And it's like, oh, fuck. And then you're all revved up and then the website's clunky and sometimes it just resets for no reason. And the next minute, 200 people in queue, and you're like, oh, it's so brutal, man. It's fucking brutal. So I'm nominating that whole booking system and just how crowded it sorted out, obviously, is. Well, everyone wants a piece of it. It's just fucking packed up there. [01:13:36] Speaker C: Yeah, but the same scenario every single year. [01:13:38] Speaker A: There's not enough fucking campsites up there for everyone. It's really Twiggy's fault. Fucking cock liquor. Open up. Absolute. [01:13:48] Speaker C: I'm all about the charities and shit. Open up the caravan park. [01:13:51] Speaker A: You coach shut down one of the only two caravan parks up there and now you can't fucking book on the. Got to stay up in the middle of the night. Your Christmas holidays. Then I couldn't get back to sleep every night. [01:14:00] Speaker C: Three years later, the place is still shuttered, nothing happened. [01:14:03] Speaker D: Did you get a bookie? [01:14:04] Speaker A: I did. I did four nights in a row. I was getting angry. I was yelling at shit in the middle of the night. Then I'd get so worked up, couldn't get back to sleep till fucking 03:00. Then I'm fucked the next day. Then I had one night off and then I had one more crack at the title and I got it and I'm like, that was fucked. It was brutal. [01:14:21] Speaker D: At least you got a spot. It would have been fucked if you did four nights. [01:14:25] Speaker A: My mate, four night shift. My mate did six in a row and didn't get one. Six nights in a staying with you. That Tolkie beach. [01:14:34] Speaker D: So how big is the site, mate? Can we all pull Nancy and just pull in? [01:14:42] Speaker A: And then, mate, I've got another one which I think I mentioned before but didn't quite make the cut, but I've seen it again since fat kids on ebikes. T bones, this little dude riding along and he had this fuck, he wasn't pedaling at all and he's just steaming along and he's heavy, overweight. He's like eleven years old and he's just gave me this. I was looking at him, he just gave me this shit eating grin like someone had just stolen your pack of chocolates. Was taken off down the road. He looks so happy with himself, so pleased. And he wasn't pedaling and he's overweight and I'm like, mate, you got to pedal and then you'll probably won't be so fat, your little prick. It's a sign of the times. But it is, mate. If your kids struggling with weight issues, don't buy them an electric bike, just get them a pedal. Pedal power, come on. [01:15:34] Speaker D: Even a know. [01:15:35] Speaker A: Just steaming around, stealing everyone's chocolates and no one can catch him. It's not happening. What do you got for your clives, mate? [01:15:42] Speaker D: Mate, well, thing is, Namu pretty much had my clive. He covered the land. Mean, it's probably a clive that's been spoken about, so maybe I won't even touch on, you know, when I go away, I work hard, I come home and first day I'm frothing to go down the beach. [01:16:03] Speaker C: Does he work hard, though? [01:16:05] Speaker A: Yes, he does. He does. Works very hard. I've seen his productivity sheets, his data sheets, his memories. Boss listens. [01:16:12] Speaker C: Long hours. [01:16:13] Speaker A: He works real long hours. [01:16:14] Speaker D: Yeah, my boss is listening. Shit out of the boss. [01:16:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Speaking of your work, you got any more fucking gloves and safety goggles and shit for me? Tbo? Fuck. He bought home these gloves. Gave them to me. Those gloves that he gave us. I tried to cut the fingertips off for a bit of extra dexterity, but they didn't cut. Brand new freaking razor blade. I couldn't cut through the thing. I was like, fuck, this is the sickest gloves I've ever seen. The bullet literally couldn't cut them with a fresh razor blade. I was hacking away for like five minutes. So a bit of feedback for your gloves there, man. Fucking those things. [01:16:45] Speaker D: Because the sales guy always hit me up for new products. So I'll give him that feedback, actually. [01:16:50] Speaker A: Yeah, mate, they would literally. [01:16:52] Speaker C: You couldn't cut your finger off, even say they're dynamite. You actually tried dynamite, too? [01:16:56] Speaker A: Yeah, well, they would be blowing hands off them. Sorry, TBA. [01:17:00] Speaker C: Anyway, I believe there might be some glasses at some point. Haven't said those. [01:17:06] Speaker D: True, true. Well, I'm actually going to give the glasses a bit of a plug. [01:17:09] Speaker C: Not if we don't have any. [01:17:12] Speaker D: Well, I've got some. [01:17:14] Speaker A: I like how you and me drummed up a bunch of sponsors to share around. No boys bought one sponsor on board, gave us fucking nothing. [01:17:23] Speaker D: I bought them. [01:17:24] Speaker A: I bought them, okay? [01:17:26] Speaker D: I supported them. Mates. [01:17:27] Speaker A: Good for you. [01:17:28] Speaker D: Business. [01:17:28] Speaker A: All right, cool. [01:17:29] Speaker D: Yeah, I lost my train of thought there. No. [01:17:32] Speaker A: Okay. [01:17:33] Speaker D: So I couldn't get a car park down the beach and I could see Bongo vans fucking lined up. Must have been about 20 od. Bongo vans, that many. [01:17:43] Speaker C: Smell of incense. Feeling the air, for fuck's sake. [01:17:46] Speaker D: Okay, so then I parked down the road, and then when I walked down to the beach, must have been probably half of Florianopoulos out in the surf, but they couldn't surf very well. But they all just paddled. Ten of them, head down. [01:18:03] Speaker A: Fuck them. [01:18:05] Speaker D: I thought, this is fucked. Like no surf etiquette at all. [01:18:09] Speaker C: So we need to start. Keep talking about this. We got to start fucking sending some sort of rules. [01:18:15] Speaker A: What do you do? It's not like the 80s where you could just gang up and beat them up and. Well, because phone cameras, that's why they're. [01:18:25] Speaker C: Not going to take phone cameras down to the base. [01:18:27] Speaker D: Just drop in. [01:18:28] Speaker A: They will, Matt. [01:18:28] Speaker D: They probably got drop. [01:18:30] Speaker A: Just drop in. [01:18:31] Speaker D: Yeah, I just dropped in. [01:18:33] Speaker C: That's fine. [01:18:34] Speaker A: That's good. Yeah, I've probably said it before, but if I'm at one of my local breaks and it's really good, I won't bother if it's a bit shit, but if it's fucking pumping and I'll get some outsiders try to haggle the peak, I'm on a bigger board. If it's my turn, I'm going. And maybe even if it's. If they're just sniffing around and they're blatantly not from here and it's like a really good day, you definitely just got to be a bit more ruthless. [01:19:03] Speaker C: Guarantee they're doing it at their home, bro, 100%. [01:19:06] Speaker A: And obviously if it's other locals and other normal dudes from around here, you're not doing it to them. But yeah, you can't go full Hawaii on them in the start beating them. [01:19:18] Speaker C: Up because, no, like blow the whistle. [01:19:20] Speaker D: Like down the old pipeline day. [01:19:22] Speaker A: You blow the whistle here and fucking no one on the beach to hear it. You're just whistling away. You're like, is fucking Phil Toledo's dad in the gym? [01:19:31] Speaker C: If a tree falls in the forest, no one's there to actually happen. [01:19:36] Speaker A: All right, what about Steve Irwin's? You got any good ones? [01:19:38] Speaker C: I do, but I've lost my train of thoughts. [01:19:41] Speaker A: I've got two good ones. They're a little bit older. [01:19:45] Speaker C: I've got some crikey stuff to. Oh yeah, here we go. [01:19:50] Speaker A: Rocky, mate, they quote around New Year's Eve. One's New Year's Eve and one's New Year's Day. Really? So New Year's Eve, I don't know if you remember, but the previous New Year's Eve, I took the title for last wave of the year at yelling up mainbreak. Yeah, I made a special effort. Yelling up is a really awesome place for New Year's Eve. Everyone gathers on the lawn, watches the last sunset, has a few beers and. [01:20:20] Speaker C: All the rest of that whole story. [01:20:21] Speaker A: Again, no. [01:20:22] Speaker C: Good story, though. [01:20:23] Speaker A: I could, but I did it. It was hard. I'd had a few and it was actually big and onshore that day. But I got it and I nailed it and I was stoked. [01:20:32] Speaker C: Boom. [01:20:32] Speaker A: But anyway, I'm down there this New Year's and I've just pulled in at about 530 and I'm about to get out with the family and have a beer and I get a random text from my old mate Franz Knapp. Franzi? [01:20:43] Speaker C: Franz Fednan Franzi Knapp. [01:20:46] Speaker A: He's a local charger and very nice guy. And he sends me a little text going, hey, mate, are you going to try to get the last wave challenge? Yeah. And he's like, because me and my son Felix, we want the title. [01:21:02] Speaker C: And I was like, I love how. [01:21:03] Speaker A: He threw a bit of a tip of the cap towards me to go, doff the cap. Doff of the cap. We're challenges. Are you up for it? And I said, mate, I didn't even ring a board. This year was offshore, but, like, really, really small. I was like, mate, I didn't even bring my board. I'm like, you're on. And he's like, yeah, my son Felix, who's like, eleven or twelve or something, he wants the title. [01:21:28] Speaker C: And I was surfing really well too, Felix. Yeah. [01:21:32] Speaker A: And, mate, I was so stoked. I was like, I love that Franzi's instilling this sort of passion. Know something really cool. So about five minutes later from the text, I've actually seen him on the grass and Franzi's having a beer and they're getting preps. I've gone down, had a chat to him and had a chat to the young fellow. He was pretty pumped. [01:21:50] Speaker C: Cut his achilles off. [01:21:52] Speaker A: He's had a big injury up north this year in winter. Didn't. [01:21:56] Speaker C: No, no, I was saying, did you cut Felix's achilles? [01:21:59] Speaker A: Oh, no, I didn't. Well, I didn't have to because he almost did it himself at Nalu this year. I saw a huge gash in his foot from winter, so that he full canaven trip to hospital. So, no, it was already partially severed, so I didn't have to. But mates, I've gone down the beach for a swimming that with a fam, and they've paddled out, gone on a big softboard, they've gone tandem. They didn't even go separate boards. I was like, oh, this is cool. There's no one out, mind you. [01:22:25] Speaker D: They take headlamps down with them. [01:22:26] Speaker A: No, sunset's like 730 or whatever, because it's that time of year. But anyway, they're gone out. There's no one out. And they go out and it's tiny, they're waiting. Every now and then it's like every ten minutes there's a little dribbler, little clean dribbler and anyway, and I was like, oh, cool, they're going tandem. And so they've gone out there and, mate, they got, like. It took them a while, but they got a wave and they both stood up on it together and we're riding it together. And we're all, like, cheering from the beach. It's a pretty big crowd there. And I was like, mate, what a way to do it. What a great way to do it with your son. Last wave of the year at one of the most crowded spots on the coast, doing riding at tandem. It was clean, and it was fucking awesome, right? And he ended up getting a few more, and they rode it right towards the reef. Almost fucking killed each other because it was so small and shallow. And anyway, I was like, fucking legends. They've done it. Well played. I start walking back up the steps and up to the grassy area to get stuck into the hummus and fucking cheese and a few more tins, and I see some fucking rando backpacker. Fucking dude sits at backpackers. They're creeping in everywhere. He's just fucking neck and a beer. [01:23:38] Speaker C: Not today. [01:23:38] Speaker A: Neck and a beer. [01:23:39] Speaker D: Eating your hummus. [01:23:41] Speaker A: He was fucking making hummus. And mate, waxing up his board, about to trot down the steps and take the last wave of the year, and I'm thinking, franzi and Felix are probably already on their way in. They're going to get fucking stitched. Young Felix would have paddled back out, and I was devastated. They didn't know, but I knew. I was looking at this guy going, where's this fucking guy going? So I was upset for them, but they paddled out. Franzi and Felix seen him coming. It was some blow in, and he paddled up to him. And Franzi's like, mate, we're trying to catch the last wave of the year. And he's like, yeah, I was, too. Pulls out a fucking beer out of his pocket, gives it to Franzi. [01:24:23] Speaker D: You're kidding me. [01:24:24] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:24:24] Speaker A: And I was. But Franzi and that Franzi didn't have a wedding on. That's right. So he had to stick it out for, like, an hour and a half, freezing his tits off, stuck it out. The other guy was probably half cut, so he only had one or two in him. So Franzi had his beer, and that was pretty cool of the guy to paddle out with a beer. [01:24:43] Speaker D: Where was he from? [01:24:44] Speaker A: Don't know. Don't know. But Franzi and Felix, they stuck it out, and they got the last wave of the year, and they had to really fucking fight for it. And I thought that was well worthy of Steve Irwin. Salute. [01:24:56] Speaker C: Yeah, well done, Franzi and Felix. [01:25:00] Speaker A: Why. [01:25:01] Speaker C: Don'T you tackle the backpack and say, not today, mate? [01:25:03] Speaker A: Yeah, I should have. [01:25:04] Speaker C: Shouldn't I stay in? [01:25:05] Speaker A: Yeah, I should have. [01:25:05] Speaker C: Just once again, did you steal his. [01:25:07] Speaker D: Beers when he went out surfing. [01:25:08] Speaker A: I don't know where he just emerged from. A fucking broken down van from somewhere. [01:25:13] Speaker C: Like at a concert. It just popped up in the ground. [01:25:16] Speaker A: He just grew like a magic mushroom in a bailing up pine forest. [01:25:19] Speaker C: That's what they're doing. These backpacker vans are so dirty, they're just growing all these fucking in there. And they're turning into new backpackers. [01:25:27] Speaker A: That's right. Those toenail clippings are falling down the side of the van and amalgamating with the mold of some leftover cachatoro sausage and just generating into a new dna clone of more backpackers. [01:25:43] Speaker C: Terminator. They smash and they exactly break into a million pieces. And they all just amalgamate back into super backpacker. [01:25:51] Speaker A: And then I got one more Steve. On the very next day, we went down to Smith beach for a kid's whitewater. Grovel, mate, you've got to hike down about, be about a k and a half, I reckon, down a pretty steep rocky track, then across the hot sand beach. It was pretty hot. Middle of summer, I'm lugging nine foot softies and kids and that and me and Steve O and all the kids and down there and having a great old time, right? And up the normal end of Smith, the tourist end, it's obviously know, but there's shore dumpers up there. The waves where we went weren't even waves. They're just white waters, but at least they break off the beach a bit so the kids can ride them. And anyway, we're out there having a good old time. There's no one else there because it's a bit of a hike. And then as I'm out there, see this pasty looking dude with one of those four year old Kmart bodyboards under his arm. This dude's like six three and white and blatantly one of those Kmart boards. It's not even a full size one. [01:26:56] Speaker C: And then he's got his kid sort of weird netting. [01:27:00] Speaker A: Yeah, the netting, like synthetic sort of wrapping around it or something. And he's got his kid, who's about twelve or 13. I can just see that they're not from here. I could just sense it from a long way away, right? [01:27:14] Speaker C: My spidey senses. [01:27:17] Speaker A: And before they even got there, I was sort of impressed because I just read the play instantaneously. I could see the crowd. It's New Year's Day. Smith is packed up the other end where all the car parks up there and heaps of people on the beach and lifeguards, which are only there, like, one month a year. And it was all happening down there. And I realized straight away that this guy, who is from Australia, has seen us, like, way up the beach and thought, oh, they're doing some sort of surfing. I've got my ubute board here. Let's trudge up the beach in the hot sun with no shirt on and his pasty white skin and go and see what it's all about. So he comes all the way up, and then they're just standing in front of us, and they're, like, looking on an awe as our kids catch these knee high whitewaters. And he's thinking, fuck, how does this even work? [01:28:08] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:28:09] Speaker A: And they sort of stand there and they sort of venture in, like, sleeping European. [01:28:12] Speaker C: He is naked. [01:28:13] Speaker A: Yeah, pretty much. He's pretty much just, like, gone about 3 meters into the water. We're, like, about 12 meters out the back. We're out the back. And I can see him fluffing around in there. And we've been going for hours. And I just went up to him and I was like, started chabbing a chat. Mate, it's New Year's Day, sun shining. There's no one else around. Start having a chat where you're from. He was Dutch. From Netherlands. From the Netherlands, right. Amsterdam. Yeah. I can't remember. It wasn't Amsterdam, but he was maybe the Hague. Yeah. And I like the Dutch. They're good crew, I reckon. [01:28:54] Speaker C: I'm not fans. [01:28:55] Speaker D: Women are very tall. [01:28:56] Speaker A: Yes, they are. And this guy was tall as well. And, mate, I just picked it straight away. And he's like, oh, yeah, we're here for a three week holiday, driving around Western Australia. And then we're going over and it's like, mate. And I was like, oh, fucking good on you. And I'm like, so you walked all the way up the beach? He's like, yeah, we've never surfed before. We were trying to surf down there because we heard it was good surf here, but it was slamming on the shore. And I'm like, yeah, man. And I said, look, I had a nine foot softie. I said, does your kid want to have a go on my board? I'll help him. And he's like, oh, yeah, I'd love to. So, yeah, that big thing right there. Absolutely. Massive tank and nine foot softie. [01:29:35] Speaker C: That is a big softie. [01:29:36] Speaker A: Yeah. So, mate, I've taken his kid out the back and gave him a quick rundown, pushed him into this whitewater straight away on his feet, rides it all the way to the beach. Steps off on the sand next to his dad. Did it five more times. Stood up every time. He was absolutely buzing. His dad was frothing. I was frothing because I'm just like, how cool is this? I just sort of respect them for putting in that effort and walking all the way up the beach when they had no idea about anything. [01:30:03] Speaker C: Track. [01:30:04] Speaker A: Yeah, off the beaten track with their little came up bodyboards. And then they came up there and they tried to get a couple of things of it wasn't working. And then they got rewarded by this kid. And, mate, the kid was loving it, mate, obviously he's from a place where it doesn't surf. And his dad, I said, mate, he's doing extremely well for someone who's never caught a wave before. And he said, oh, well, he snowboards. And I'm like, oh, there's obviously some transition there, because that was five in a row. He didn't even fall off. Only whitewaters, but still straight to his feet. Popped up on everyone. So, mate, that was cool. Gave me a buz. Getting a first timer in the water. And it was just cool to see someone putting in effort and getting rewarded instead of just hanging with the masses. So that was my New Year's Day. So Steve Irwin to those two Dutchmen for having a crack. [01:30:56] Speaker C: Now, you're not going to believe this, mate, but I actually tracked down this young fella, this young Dutch. Dutch kid. So he's now 17 years old. He's actually become the dutch national surfing champion. He's gone to the Olympics, he's made the Olympic team and he's here with us right now. Paul van Dyke, come on down. [01:31:19] Speaker D: I'd like to thank. [01:31:29] Speaker A: Did he bring the Amsterdam seeds with him? [01:31:32] Speaker C: I think I might have had a couple of those before he started. [01:31:34] Speaker A: That was a big build up for a round of applause. I thought he had something. [01:31:39] Speaker C: He's here, okay. He's just bit shy. [01:31:42] Speaker D: All right, I want to ask you, did you ask the old man if. [01:31:44] Speaker A: He'D been to from. Course he has. I mean, I didn't ask him, but I just assumed that he would have been coming from the. That was cool. [01:31:57] Speaker C: What do you guys. Tbane's got a Steve. [01:31:59] Speaker D: Just more of a shout out than a Steve, but it could be a combination. I want to shout out this new sunglass. Sunglass. Sunglass brand that a local lad has kicked off. Epic pair of. I got actually got myself a pair of epic sunglasses. So via. The brand is called V-A-Y-A. So check them out on socials via visual. That's their Instagram handle. Epic selection of sunglasses. [01:32:31] Speaker A: Who's making them? [01:32:32] Speaker D: Josh O'Brien. [01:32:34] Speaker A: Joby Joby. [01:32:35] Speaker D: Local lad charger. He is. He is pretty good at rolling around the mats as well. He puts me into some pretty fucked up positions. [01:32:44] Speaker A: He loves men's armpits in his face, doesn't he? Loves them, but. Yeah. Well, mate, maybe he can send a few our way and we can test them out. [01:32:53] Speaker D: Mate, they're an epic sonny. And they also do safety glasses as well. I got to speak to Joby about. [01:33:00] Speaker A: That's stylish safety glasses. [01:33:02] Speaker C: Apparently he doesn't talk this much about our actual sponsors. Cheeky monkey and Forester. [01:33:06] Speaker A: Yeah, that's right. [01:33:07] Speaker D: Well, I don't know. You want to promote someone who's gone out on a limbs. [01:33:15] Speaker C: Yeah, like monkey and Forester and Sharkey's wetsuits. [01:33:18] Speaker A: Yeah, that's right. Speaking of shark eyes wetsuits, I saw some young fella in our surf yesterday paddle around in shark eyes wedding. So I paddled past him. We gave each other that shark eyes wink. [01:33:32] Speaker C: You got a little blue zip, buddy. I got a little blue zip. [01:33:35] Speaker A: Yeah, let's be friends. [01:33:36] Speaker C: We got some eyes in our backs.

Apart from his sunnies. He couldn't see anything. But people could see him. But he couldn't see them. I had a CVM, but I can't remember what it was. [01:34:08] Speaker A: Everyone's all good.

You get up, wake up a little bit earlier. [01:34:42] Speaker C: T Bone will just about be winning his round one heat of the over forty five s at that point. So well done, T Bone.

No, they've stolen your shit. Now that you've tapped in, they're like, this is two way street, buddy. [01:35:09] Speaker C: Yeah, this is actually before that was it.
