Shea – what is your current Fantasy Surfer ranking?
September 13, 2012 7:34 am
Yeah the East Coast has never produced any good surfers….except for maybe the world’s best ever…dumbasses, lol. It doesn’t take a Hawaiian or an Aussie to evaluate a surfer. Haters gonna Hate. The review is spot on and diplomatic at the same time. No way someone is going to like every surfer but when it comes to reviewing and writing about one professionally, you need to be diplomatic, which Shea was. Not to mention, we should probably consider a Pro Surfer’s point of view, rather than a surf journalist that probably can’t even duck dive.

She-a, is often wrong but never but never in Doubt. He is Arrogant for being a 150 pound guy from the Gulf.

The level of the surfing is so high with all the guys, younger or older on tour now, that it must be hard to write about who has what…In ways…But i guess that is what a guy like Shea Lopez gets paid to do, and he has been there, so maybe he knows more about this area then many of us…Still it seems a bit overly analytical for sure ! Maybe we should just sit back and enjoy the show for the second half of this years tour, and not get to in our heads about who will take down who to climb to the top and clinch it. This ain’t football ! And it is not rocket science !

propbably not one of Sheas best . why dont we get some feedback from a surf journalist from a country that is relevant to pro surfing . mainland USA aint the epi centre nor does it provide any contenders .

Hi all,
I just want to say to Surfer, that you have to do better coverage of contests. That Tahiti contest was as good as it gets. I was expecting Shea’s account of the contest.
Maybe you get a lot of people complaining about contests and asking for more surf trips.
Well, to me nothing compares to the drama of competition and people pushing each others limits, with money, glory and careers on the line.
Regards,
us

What exactly did Shea “break down”??? This was so shallow and dumb.
Where’s Derek Hynd when you need him?

I think JJF has real chances to be the champion this year, if he survives Trestles.

So, according to tour insider Shea Lopez, all of these guys surf great and have the potential to win it all. Stunning insight and a heady read.
Lewis Samuels where art thou? Ice down your bruised face and rise again.
