"ASP encourages our surfers to express their opinions at all times and in a matter fitting of their status as professionals. Regarding Fred's post-heat interview in Round 1 of the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach presented by Snickers, we have no problem with him expressing his opinion on the beach commentary, but the manner in which he chose to do it was unfortunate.
