Hedge kicked number 1 and 2 on the rankings, that's all. What insane heat. Jack Rob my favorite non-Brazilian is turning into a monster.

Already become legend this heat. One for the ages. How Robbo lost after such mesmerising top end surfing from him is incredible in itself. But Hog had other ideas and he resurrected full on old school gung ho to bludgeon his way to an astonishing come back win. He simply wouldn't be denied.

Best heat of the year

Definitely on the leaderboards of great heats, JJF v Slater 2014 taking the crown

Jack proved he had the best barrel riding on a technical level, hands down. Hedgy proved he can turn sketchiness around in a pinch to survive a massive wipeout. So what’s better? A guy who can recover from what should be a wipeout and make a wave? Or a guy who is so good that he makes insane barrels look like nothing because he takes off and rides so perfectly it looks like nothing? Personally I think Jack was robbed. No one, not even Kelly, demonstrated the kind of precision out there that Jack did. It wasn’t even close. When everyone else was hanging on for life and hoping they made it through, Jack put himself in the perfect place at every split second to ensure nothing was left to chance and he maximized the coverup on every wave until the very end.

Wow. Great heat. Hedge’s one drop was insane though followed by the shock of “how did he make it out of that tube?”

The 9.87 was a 10 and the last one was 9+. Hedge was absolutely great in this heat. JR was pushed in many heats this year and I was chearing for FT to win this year but after FT shame heat today I just don't care. Whoever wins but him will be a deserving Champ.

JR was deeper than hedge on better and hollower waves, showing objectively more technical skill, but when you watch the guy surf its almost boring as you can just see that no matter what hes coming out. Hedge had the wow factor in this heat, his waves were insane to watch but only because of the imperfections. It says a lot about the way the sports judged that he won.

Robinson surfed flawlessly. I’m not even one of his fans but shame someone had to lose here

Ano que vem com Medina cheio de vontade, JJF renovado e Yago como Samuel 100%, esse Jack vai sentir o peso de competir com os melhores.

Tons of amazing barrels by all. the progression is incredible. I think Nathan H took this contest in a way though. Most amazing waves overall - though so many by everyone. It's a war out there.

Amazing

Nates waves were better, doesnt matter if jack was smoother

Too close to call but Robinson was in control and barreled as deep. I give Robbo the nod.

No claims

Nathan my new Hero...

incredible surfing

Should have been a 10

Super sick for Hedgey, but Jack was my power surfer :( hahahaha

old school schooled the new school!!!!!

Awesomeness alwwwaaayyys yeeeaaahhh!!!!!!!!!

Amazing heat Nathan Hedge being the party pooper. Better keep that champagne on ice.

Hedge Rukes!!!! middle agees up! showing how is done!

Holy crap!

Nathan didn't just get SpitOut he got LOOGIED!!

Peak competitive surfing right here

2:39 This one was worth a 10 all day and every day... Hedgy is still the master, here. Kids need to grow !

What a heat

Anyone that thinks this wasn't the best heat of the year is dreaming.

If anyone had to knock robbo out I'm glad it was hedgey

Air drop to big spitter, gnar!

@Mike, You have no idea, we are sick of seeing Jack being favoured, and if he is as good as you say, what happened in Bells against Italo, in wez oz against Jonjon, etc. Here today Nathan has proven to be much better than him, and that 1st wave was a 10. And what is Robo doing gesturing to the judges, maybe asking for another push for Trestles?

wow!

Jack didn't even get a reach around from the judges

I completely disagree, although I will admit jack surfed an amazing heat and put on a technical barrel riding clinic (which is well reflected in the scores), Hedge’s 9.87 was well deserved and I would argue even underscored, you write as if hedge made that drop off of pure luck, as if he just stumbled into that gapping chopes pit while being ingulfed in the largest plume of spit most mortal has laid eyes on. What Hedge displayed was experience, only a human who has spent hundreds of sessions dialing in that break can do what he did. Somehow taming an elevator drop, setting the rail and gliding out after what felt like an eternity to the roar of every surfer in the channel. Peter Mel and Kaipo said it best “he was blind in that barrel traveling off of braille”. Although you could say he almost wiped out he didn’t he made a near wipe out look controlled and buttery, he turned what could have been a roll through the reef into a near 10. Jack deservedly got to excellent scores, but Hedge displayed how experience a ,few minutes and two perfect waves can turn a heat. But neither of us should really argue about this to much, Surfing is subjective, ultimately it’s in the eyes of the beholder, and we are all biased towards our favorite surfers. That’s what makes it fun to watch you can live through your hero’s experiencing their victories along side them, and unfortunately also there loses. Everyone hates when there favorite surfer loses and sometimes the judges get it wrong. Shoot when John John lost in Portugal this year I blamed it on the commissioner for running it in shitty conditions. Surfing is surfing, contests are contests, heats are heats. Let’s just have fun, admire the sport and its athletes, and simply be thankful we get to see two surfers duke it out in the best waves in the world.

The Hog was charging , but obviously the Judging Panel can’t comprehend the difference between Hedgy’s great surfing , and Jack’s pure mastery of backhand barrels. Judge the surfing - not the wave.
