Who Should You Really Be Picking At Raglan?
Nate Florence and Koa Rothman opine on a wave well below their pay grade.

Erik “Bad” Apple won the T-shirt wars at Snapper Rocks.
It is with some disappointment that we’ve watched him fail to carry that momentum into the betonline.ag odds preview for the Corona Cero New Zealand Pro.
In lieu of Mikey C came Nate Florence and Koa Rothman, both taking a break from setting up their new dedicated podcast studio in Nate’s dungeon to roll out v2.0 of the Nate & Koa Podcast and discuss odds at this year’s novelty venue.
They chat about who could do well, who could face some hurdles, and who could surprise at the curved bone the WSL threw the goofs this year.
“It’s the most perfect left!” Koa said. See? They can’t help themselves.
Now, for a little additional insight from someone who actually knows about Raglan — acclaimed Kiwi photographer Rambo Estrada, who’s been on the point all week:
“My main observation is most of the crew are struggling to match the pace of the wave,” Rambo tells us. “It’s a deep shoulder and you need to be constantly coming from behind and hitting it in the pocket, then angling your turn back to put yourself behind again. A lot of crew are getting out onto the face and by that point you might as well give it up. You can see people getting really frustrated.
“Italo has been a standout,” he continues. “He’s taking off deeper and getting the sections to go big. He’s the only person I saw yesterday that was putting up really big moves consistently. Betty Lou did the biggest turn I saw from a female yesterday.”
