SUNDAY saw the resumption of hostilities at the Quik Pro France after a number of lay days. The swell had settled down from Saturday's gruff peak to a level contestable playing field and it was game on.

A little bit of Round 2 and all of round Round 3 of the went down. Contest director Micky Picon has been careful to only put the surfers out in the best available conditions. To this end he called the comp off for the arvo when the onshore whipped up, taking a break for King of the Groms and kicking on again after the onshore died back.

no mention of the absolute fiasco that was the end of Taj vs. Logie?

The ASP should be hanging their heads in shame, Travis won the heat fair and square and deserved to go through. The whole world can now watch the action, so dodgy judging and bogus calls should be slammed by the public, and the judges/ASP made accountable. RIP OFF!
