and to everyone who says dane shoulda won...how misleading a video can be huh...watch the entire heat live. i'm a big fan of danes surfing but he didn't do jack much of anything. he sat on his board for like 20 minutes and even let a big set go by
@itsmyturn The video isn't misleading. It shows dane falling twice and being greatly outmaneuvered by Mick. Anyone who thinks Dane should've won is just silly/blind. Dane rules, but he blew it here with the exception the wave with the air reverse (even though I think wave choice was bad there, the face wasn't as nice as any of the waves Mick chose.).
i was there for this heat. dane kicked back way to much...micky was catching everything that came in..which wasn't much. sets were way too inconsistent i remember. dane kept sitting and waiting for that bigger one to come in and i can't remember if it came in or not...whatever though...this is why surf contests holds little weight for me. the outcome isn't indicative of how much better dane is than mick...but that's surf contests for you.
mick has to be competitive its his job! he gets paid to win events plus who wouldn't want to be number one in the world twice? when there guys on tour like slates, taj, jordy, dane, owen etc he wouldn't stand a chance if he wasn't super competitive. and he has got style, his style is powerful hacks and super speed, its just stylish in a different way i guess!
Surfing is a soul sport, I don't think I have ever felt so inspired by any other sport. I imagine many others have their own thing too, but surfing's my thing.
I love this, slow motion makes it look so graceful.
Reminds me to keep my pace slower, to savour the beautiful pieces of our short, very short life. Slow down so we feel, and take every moment in as if it is prolonged.
We can choose to live a longer, fuller life by slowing down the most precious moments...time with our family, our friends, and ourselves.
unfortunately some guy with a huge head walked right in front of the camera when Dane did the first reverse and the second one wouldn't do him justice by itself. Needless to say we were not happy with the man with the large head for ruining one of Danes best waves.
just wonderful

@jollyperson12 I agree that mick is way to competetive but he does have style and his carves and snaps have tremendous power in them.
