[PT-15 is not your number]

Durbidge was in excellent form throughout the final day of competition, eliminating a rampaging Dane Reynolds, compatriot Ben Dunn, and lethal local Patrick Beven en route to the final. He ended up in the unenviable situation of having 5 minutes left on the clock and only 2 out of his maximum of 15 waves left to surf - needing a combination score he missed his chance and that was it.

I felt good and fit as but I was trying to push my turns too hard on a couple of waves and I was caught in the bump a lot so I guess that's the difference from the other heats today, Durbidge said. The conditions were a bit bumpier and I couldn't get any clean sections out there. It felt good to be in the final though.

	just want to say not only is fanning a class surfer, but according to a few of my old muckers who headed over for the ASP, they met up wiht him (and someone called Ed, who works for MSW!) and he came over and was VERY cool with them, no airs(!) or graces jsut a really nice down to earth bloke...who then proceeded to force one of them to strip, have his nipple licked and then commandeered a road and started 'naked races'. I've seen the video and he looks sound as a pound.

	Dane Reynolds surfed so good in this event, so as Jordy Smith. Seeing Bede's surf was so boring in comparison to these 2 guys !!!

	he is not as lucky this year, it a pity because he's surfing well, but he may have to focus on doing as well as he can in the next events, just like every1 else on the tour.
