the thing I love about the Brazilian athlete is you can see his smile the entire time. It makes me want to get back out on the waves.

[@JamieG.]

The Brazilian skaters are like it too.

[@douglaspinsak1246]

Such horrible conditions-but Italo made the most of what there was to work with. 👍🎉 🥇.

[@hunterdavis3003]

This was italo’s day. Igarashi I’ve noticed gets into his own head often under pressure. Still young, once he masters the mental aspect he will be a champion

Nothing like a one hour," National Anthem,eh!

[@steveperreira5850]

I’m going to go for Brazil, still mad at Japan for war crimes. That’s the truth, and I’m happy Portuguese, so there!

[@bestgrimbarianever]

it's quite typical of the japanese mentality... in a lot of sports actually! they're some of the most intelligent, talented people on earth but they often try too hard to be perfect and then put themselves under too much pressure... and then they're too hard on themselves afterwards when they don't achieve what they aimed to achieve... which often leads to depression sadly!

[@leej-vq6hl]

brazil, japan, australia.. they're all great countries with beautiful beaches. coastal islands.. loved watching surfing as an olympics game its so dramatic

Pretty poor that they took over a month to put replays up etc. There was no way to watch these when they happened live or during the week after- it's 2021 Olypmic folks, get with the times and get the WSL or someone to do your broadcast and post heat replays-

[@drewnolan96]

That would be like the NHL or MLB posting replays it’s literally illegal due to conflict of interest. Surfing is low on the Olympic priority list, it was the first year. Maybe as it gains more respect world wide then the coverage will be better but unfortunately it’s not right now

[@Vic-kk3ut]

Vaya paquete Igarashi. Ni lo ha intentado, estando en su país. Quiere el swell perfecto para surfear... Italo aprovecha lo que hay en ese momento y ya está, ahí está el talento 👏

[@thaddeusodonnell3986]

Surfing doesnt seem like something you would score based off of even one days session per stage. If its terrible circumstances it seems more like a lottery contest. I feel it should be judged over a longer period where each contestant has plenty of oppurtunity to get a fair session to be judged and after each contestant has surfed x amount of waves over like a 3 day period then it would be scored off the total combined for a stage.

[@ai8991]

試合開始は6:40から

[@Gamex-gs7qf]

Can some explain how the scoring works with this as I’ve not watched competitive like this before?

[@Serie56sfm]

The use their best 2 runs. They can try as many as they want, until the time runs out. Not 100% sure, but i thinks that's how it is.
