I gotta say I enjoy the enjoy the commentary much better in this era. Plus Pam Burrige has a surf school on the south coast of NSW. From Ulladulla down. I lived in Ulladulla for a few years and had a few lessons. She was my surf idol for a long time. She is such a lovely person. And I can highly recommend a her as a surfing instructor if your ever down that way.

Flew up from Tasmania chasing south swells always ended up around Ulladulla one of the best stretches of coast in the world amazing

Hard to believe that Gerlach walked away a year later at the age of 26.

[@jacobsmith4284]

He got caught up in the scene. It can happen to the best

[@jonathanweiss8955]

Jacob smith he wanted to surf big waves not grovel in 2 foot slop

[@Toby3610]

I am getting back into the sport after a 20 year absence. This is what originally got me into the sport. I’m watching the likes of Jaime O’brien, KOA Rothman, Nate Florence and a few others. It makes me wonder what Gelach could do in this day and age. He is a star no matter what but he could have made great living and really enjoyed surfing the waves he wanted.

Dave from the best coast in OZ 🤟

[@marcod9626]

I watched this final as a 15 yo grom. Anyway, I really think TH surfed better... more vert and less snappy than BG

[@Putocurioso]

Agreed. Would rather watch Gerlach surf over Todd Holland any day, but Todd clearly won. Top 4, top 2 waves, whatever, he won.. and the floater was underscored. Gerr on Xanadu’s..good combo.
