Yup, of course this week’s volume is Gold Coast-centric. How could it not be, with the whole surfing world landing in Coolangatta, snapping off photos on their iPhones, sliding through a filter and unleashing them to the world? Dig on the insight! @jordysmith88 got the board he wanted. Y’watch the superheat? Oh, boy. “Waist to shoulder high with the occasional ice berg,” says @chrisburkard This was the view of Kirra that @damienhobgood woke up to yesterday morning. @paradiseguy (Will Sharp)’s angle of a Dane Reynolds lien. Head slightly tilted back: check. Power stance: check. Classic suiting with some detail that pops: Check. @gabrielmedinaaa and @jadsonandre are going in for the kill. @kalanimiller throws some BGPs (back ground props) behind @kellyslater’s 5’9″x 18’1/4″x 2’1/4″ experimental board nicknamed “Lips”. Posted by @cisurfboards This is how @kellyslater sees the world sometimes. “I should’ve done a look back with @joelparko yesterday like @mfanno did on me today. Looks like you’re going goofy, Mick.” Reckon @josh_kerr84 was thrilled with scoring his hometown like this? “today I saw a shark,” says @_koloheandino. “this is mason and i immediately catching a wave in. I was scared.” Oh, WA… “@stephaniegilmore isn’t the only one that got the MR singly,” says @morganmaassen. Another shot of Kirra? Yep. Sorry. This one by @lawrence_photo. And, even more Kirra. @joelparko was in the mix, of course. @patrickgud and pals, breaking records. Always time for some tunnel vision, especially when provided by @owenphoto “This shit better work!!” says @mattwilko8.
