"This is the best day of my life," Smith said. "The crowd on the beach has been supporting me the last few days and hearing the cheers and the Vuvuzelas just gets me fired up to perform. It feels like they’re pushing me along. I couldn’t have done it without them."
"I knew the swell was dying and I had to take advantage of every wave that came through. Adam (Melling) is such a dangerous surfer. He’s been in form all day and I knew that if he got the waves, he would get the scores. I went out there knowing I had to open up strong."
this contest truly showed a changing of the guard, guys with a carving style like taylor knox, neco padaratz, mike campbell etc have their days numbered. The younger guys are getting a better score for 2 moves on a wave rather then 5 or 6 carving moves.
