J-Bay je pokazal, zakaj bi kdo dal ime svojemu otroku po tem spotu

Za letošnjo peto tekmo WCT surf sezone se je J-Bay prižgal in pokazal v svoji najboljši luči. Kot Snapper rocks v najboljših sezonah sreča backdoor pajp so se valile tuba za tubo in stena za steno. Na koncu so bili zmagovalci vsi, ki so lahko surfali tak val s samo še enim surferjem v lineupu. Največ surftime-a sta si nabrala finalista Parko in Damo, zmago je na koncu pobasal Parko, ki je precej utrdil svoje prvo mesto v skupni razvrstitvi.

Parko je finale odprl z mastno 9-ko o kateri je povedal:”I knew the waves were dying down towards the end of the day and it was going to be important to get on the board early in Final. I’ve been sitting up the point at Boneyards for most of the event and trying to find the ones that would run all the way down the point that one was no different. As I stood up I had a really nice line on it and I tried to make the most of it. Turned out to be a crucial part of the heat.”
