Volcom Fiji Pro 2013: Pro Surfing live im Surfcamp Portugal

Großartige Aktion in perfekten Wellen in der ersten Runde des Volcom Fiji Pro.

Kelly Slater ist noch nicht auf Fiji. Er trat zu seinem Head nicht an. Family First heißt es im Hause Slater. Anstatt auf Fiji zu surfen, war er bei der Geburt seines Neffens!

Auch Billabong Surfer Joel Parkinson verpaßte seinen Heat!
Er war Angeln!
“I was 100% convinced last night that the contest would be off today so we went fishing early this morning,” so Parkinson. “There is so much good surf coming in the contest window that I thought there was no way we’d be surfing so we grabbed the fishing rods and took off down the coast in the boat. But the swell filled in a little early and the conditions at Cloudbreak were so good they had no choice but to run. There’s no way you walk away from waves that good. I was out of phone range and by the time the contest was called on I was too far away to make it back because I was in the third heat of the morning.”
In der zweiten Runde trifft Parko nun Auf Pusty Payne.
