What a terrible shame something as pure as the connection of man, board, wave has become so commercial. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account.

Handbags at Dawn. Mon, 22 August A bunfight is breaking out on social networks as outspoken Jamie O'Brien spearheads a campaign to get Bruce Irons into the Billabong Pro Tahiti while he rails at perceived injustices at the hands of the organisers. Add comment. Logie who's scratching for his life on the ASP, needs every point and every dollar just to keep his job, should give up his place so Bruce can have "respect"???
WTF is that? JOB is not thinking clearly if he believes for one second that Travis Logie can afford to give up his place in this contest. This has nothing to do with Logie and any gestures, honorable donations, or signs of "respect" should not come at the expense of another man's career.
Surely Andy Irons would not wish that. The house that he built was so surfers like Travis and many others can make a living doing what they love and the sport of surfing can prosper. RottMouth - maybe your heart was in the right place when you began your crusade but your complete lack of "respect" for Travis Logie and what he has worked for is undeniably selfish and extremely distasteful.
Looks like Saturday might be too gnarley for the comp, giving Bruce his time to shine in all his Irons barrell riding splendor. Now stop the noise boys. Not a chance. Keep charging Travis. May he RIP, as no-one will ever replace him, not even his brother Bruce! In the context of preserving or emulating Andy's legacy, I find this entire debate on Bruce being given a slot in to main event ridiculous, since he was already given a chance to surf the trials.
It's the first surf I've had in a while, it feels nice. I've been coming here to Tahiti since I was like 15, it's a good spot, it has a special place in my heart," said Irons. Whether I win or lose is another thing, it's no longer the end of the world. I just try to have fun, that's what it's all about," he said. ANDY: I was one heat away! I was in the fucken quarter-finals. I had Hedgey! I came out of the gates with an eight — they were scoring me high. And then, he came back and got a nine-five.
And, I got a seven and he got an eight. ANDY: You just deal with it, fuck! What if? What if the world ended yesterday, we would not be here! I mean, fuck, I could drown all day in what-ifs. A brand new edit to sexy song! Filmed and cut by the most mysterious and sinewy and glistening Morgan Maassen! That steak before it sizzles on a hotplate is attached to a living, breathing, cartoon-y animal. Who knew? For those of us who live in sweet urban hamlets where animals are seasoned with herbs and wrapped in plastic containers, we have no idea how they got there.
Who knew they were dragged screaming into slaughter yards and given a bolt to the head or, if they were killed according to the scriptures of Jew or Muslim, hung out to dry with a knife to the throat. Shane Dorian, the great Hawaiian surfer famous for his love of pig hunting, lives with eyes wide open. He knows that steaks, before they sizzle on a hotplate, were attached to living, breathing cartoon-y animals with beating hearts and little families.
I saw a photo of Alex Gray with his first kill. And he killed a sheep. With hunting, Alex, um, sheep are actually…um…people absolutely froth to hunt sheep. But, there are game animals that are more exciting. Are the sheep vicious? Or do you start with tame animals so nothing bad can happen in the initial stages? I doubt it. That little shanks and delicious hams do come from a cuter-than-heavens lamb or mischievous piglet?
Get those nasty boars! My friends will go spear fish and you can put 50 million dead fish on Instagram and no-one will ever say a thing. But, if you put one Bambi on Instagram people lose it. Do you? So you preach to the converted. But, back to the sheep thing. They look so friendly! So tame! And, look, here they come up to this nice man in camouflage, expecting a pat, maybe some kind of inter-species communication and…pow!
That I struggle with…. I know what you mean! Can you describe the process of death up close? Do you see the life drain out of their eyes? Are you kidding me, man? You have to finish the animal off. And, to me, I try and do it as quickly and as humanely as possible. It is what it is. I choose to go hunting. I choose to harvest animals for food. When you go and order a steak at your local restaurant you never think about the animal that died for it.
That way you can appreciate the life that was taken. I feel sad. That feeling has never gone away from me and I hope it never does, actually. Can we slide back to the original question? You go up to it. It looks at you. The other thing to keep in mind is that while he appears to have all guns blazing there is a message in there, something to be elucidated amongst all the rambling.
Of course, even if you agree with him, at some stage you will have your mothers name cursed and fathers grave spat on - such is his curious manner. Consider it a mere cultural quirk, saviour the moment, and move on.
Ban blasphemy-rottmouth from this site. Log in or register to post comments. I agree that he is aggressive, overly negative and I would even throw pompous into the mix. Good night everyone. I hope waves or other good times await you tomorrow. But, he keeps paddling out.
