Conner Coffin gets Ballito Wildcard

Posted 28 Jun 2012, by STABmag

Remember the 2011 Mr Price Pro, Ballito? Pat Gudang won it and it saw some of the best waves outta any contest last year. This year it’s back, a prime event in early July. And 18-year-old Conner Coffin has the wildcard. “Ballito looks amazing,” he said. “To have the chance to surf perfect waves against the best surfers in the world, as a wildcard, makes this a huge opportunity for me. I was super excited to hear the news because I have always wanted to surf in Ballito.” If the waves are like last year, Conner’s down-the-line attack will be well-suited.

JBay is gonna suck balls cause they’ve shortened the waiting period. They can’t have lay-days (well, maybe 1 or 2 max?) so most heats will probably be run in crappy conditions.

Jbay aint even a prime. its a 6 star but primes are different: bigger prize purse, more points, and longer waiting period
