Sorry what are you going to ride actually I think 64 I don’t know that last set was solid if it just keeps getting bigger a 64 Co you’re like a coach now I’m the spotter I get to go up in the tower and 66 or a 64 I’m taller than all of you

I’d say you to ride a 66 and then you ride a 6’4 oh Nate you ride an 8 L yeah you ride your tank Ian rides a 510 I is rid 510 I’m going to be I’m going to be this is my only window so I surve thisy and then you surf

Rest yeah oh yeah cuz I’m done this is my final Harrah I just want to stop waking up dizzy and then know I love that yesterday PK asked me in the morning if I wanted to be on their team and know I was like no I’m not doing it

I’m resting I’m resting and then I haven’t told him he’s going to see me battling but like this is like you surfing pipe with three of your best friends yeah I know they’re in my car team Kaa I think another team we can do it in

Memory of Kaa memory of Kaa like I died uh Eli do you name it 96712 yeah that’s our ZIP code here on 9671 for us we’re just cruising hanging out going to watch everyone’s heat or their heat but from the tower since no one in this contest surfs with a Jersey

It’s just which is mainly set up for like sponsors to be able to get their guys in and shoot their trunks without having like a logo of someone else’s brand which is really cool honestly but that being said the judges sometimes have a hard time deciphering who’s on

The wave so it’s good to have someone who knows the team very well and like they’re surfing to be up there with the judges and be like oh that’s John Nate Ivan Eli or whoever is in the heat I mean you can definitely tell these guys apart but it’s just like you

Don’t want to score the wrong person on someone else’s but that’s what we’re going to do we’re going to go to the tower talk watch my friend surf was they’re zingy huh yeah Jack we miss you kaory is that the team name I’m boiling we get out there it’s 96712

Ivan and Ivan Florence IV in the barrel coming out scoring for 96712 I think it’s a little bigger than n and then a little deeper better than 3 minutes remaining minutes compared to the days coming but still beautiful R if you compared that to shos matah a little bit below matah

It was all Rel relative cuz also look how deep he was whereas those guys were bigger but not maybe not as deep so it’ll even out about the same feel oh check it out Nate Florence grabbing the rail getting nasty and coming out John maybe and this looks like John John John John
