The Colabros Look Downright Scary This Season
Griffin + Crosby approach Backdoor like it’s two-foot Riviera.
You can only pack so many storylines into one event.
John winning his inaugural Pipe Masters aside, no one would have been surprised had Griffin made a deep run on Finals Day. Had you asked us a month ago if we’d be picking Griffin at Pipe we’d likely say no, but alas, the young San Clementine has proved that he is not to be fucked with when it comes to Backdoor runners (see the 3:00 minute mark). Unfortunately the well-deserved hype didn’t translate into a result this year, although we’re sure Griff isn’t stressing as he’ll have plenty of opportunities to make up for it over the course of the next 15 (or 30) years.
As the story goes with many a set of hard-charging brothers (Moniz, Long, Irons, etc.), the youngest is pushed that much harder when competing for familial bragging rights. With as much progress as Griffin’s made, Crosby’s been equally impressive of late. Looking like a full-grown man whilst pulling late drops at Off The Wall and Pipe (a few months in Indo surely doesn’t hurt), it won’t be long before we have yet another set of brothers sharing the world stage once more.
Talk all the shit you want, but Vlog life’s lookin pretttttty sweet right about now.
