When it comes to placing bets on the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing, you don’t have to think that hard to find some clear favorites.

Nine-times-outta-ten, it’s pretty stupid to bet against a man like 2x World Champion and 4x Triple Crown winner John John Florence, or a woman like 5x World Champion, 2020 Olympic Gold Winner, and 1x Triple Crown Winner Carissa Moore – both of whom are ready to fight ’til the death to defend their 2020/21 crowns.

But, this is the North Shore. The waves are unpredictable. And who the hell likes playing it safe?

Mikey C has been rummaging through a lot of North Shore trash cans this week, trying to figure out which two surfers will win the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing, so you can turn your cold, hard cash into even more cold, hard cash. And don’t worry, we won’t report you to the feds for insider trading.

Disclaimer: We are not responsible for any money you lose betting on Mikey C’s Bunker picks. But if you hit it big, kindly scrape us off 10%.

The Bunker is a snippet from our weekly North Shore news show, The Pick-Up. A Stab and Vans joint. Watch Episode One here
