Twenty-one years later, surprisingly little has changed. Lowers is the same. The winner is the same. And the announcing hasn’t evolved much either. See you in 2032.
Can you say roundhouse wraparound? PT could… a lot. This video also shows the explosion in the popularity of surfing since then. There were only like a hundred people on the beach watching and no mob crowd waiting in the wings as soon as the final horn blew. Ahh, the good ole’ days.
Swivel hips! Ha ha haaa. Someone read my mind. Llamas with Fletcher’s stinkbug stance. In the 80′s everyone was doing the Twist. Thank God Slater changed that. Browny was ripping too.
Rads!
“Nice floating drop to the bottom….” WTF??

i always just figured slater was born without the ability to grow hair as punishment for being sucha shredder.
The announcers used to sound like Used Car Sales men. So much more exciting. I’m gonna go buy a car right now actually…
The most exciting final I’ve seen all year – not just sitting around hoping to pull off an air and get a ten.
How about a little love for the guys who posted the video – solspot.com
Kuhn killing it!
And 11 later….insane
