Gabriel Medina vs Ethan Ewing | Surf Ranch Pro - Quarterfinals Heat Replay

[@nottherealChickenJoe]

I love Ethans surfing but how can you actually score turns higher than actual aggressive and progressive moves AT THE SURF RANCH? The WSL is just becoming like a scripted TV series where they will just leave the fan favorites in there forever to make more money...

[@FerreiraGuga]

U said it all bro! WSL change their criteria when their favorite surfers hit the quarters so they won't get only brazilian on WSL Finals. So they are fucked up as a company and they trying hard to get it done. They need more viewers in australia and new champion and brazil already give it all to WSL. As a brazilian i feel bad cause we are not the country of soccer(football). We are the country of the surf right now and they are taking our only happines in a hard life, with low salary, high taxes, bad jobs and we just want to find some happiness and when we find they take from us. Just like Senna shit bro.. shit is deep for us.

[@pbo5131]

A good turn is cooler than a good air, that's why. And don't cry about it like this always happens this way. Remember Gabe getting a 6 for an air at fucking Pipe Masters? To most people EE's surfing is the most fun to watch, and that's the whole point of this. If you want to go watch basketball go for it. This is surfing and style still matters.

[@vznquest]

Because his turns were powerful, critical, and risky?

[@thiagokborges]

@@pbo5131 Rewarding turns because they seem “cooler” is nuts! How hard is landing an air compared to a nice powerful turn? What is the risk of an injury comparing both tricks? It’s a no brainer that airs are a lot harder and should be awarded as such… Surfing as a sport needs to evolve, if we keep doing the same tricks that we have been doing for the past 50 years, how can surf get better?

[@filoginodosurfe946]

One of the biggest "robberies" in surf history. Everyone agrees that Ethan's right and Medina's left should have got similar scores. But Medina's right was waaayy better than Ethan's left. IMHO, Ethan has the best style ever - even better than Andy, Archbold, Parko - but he safe surfed his left. That' s undeniable. Although, Medina also didn't take many risks on his right, his maneuvers had much more power and juice than Ethan's. By the way, everyone menacing and threating Ethan Ewing or Griffin Colapinto should be arrested. It wasn't their fault.

[@pbo5131]

Bigger than Gabe's 6.5 air at Pipe in 2015?

[@agathondmiurgus]

Medina's backside was better but he struggled on the left (frontside) by not choosing tube in the 2 tube sections and giving less variety in lip hitting maneuvers. It also had less engaged rail. But the aerial was incredible. Ethan demonstrated a lot more variety, more rail, more flow, more speed and he used the tube in both tube sections. It was high quality surfing for both of them, so much so that they had the same score.

[@KanyeKetchup]

​@Bayly the biggest robbery was in the final

[@bendalong11]

2 Brazilian judges too?

[@JackH2254]

Ewing’s 2nd last ride was by far the best ridden wave in the heat so i think it deserves the top score, however his last ride being scored a 7.6 is definitely questionable. I think the judges get too swayed by the “clutchness” of the wave rather than asking themselves if it was truly a 7.6 in comparison to gabby’s 8.0. I also think that the judges have started scoring “style” in surfing, which they haven’t really done in the past, but I suppose on such a repetitive wave such as the surf ranch, style can make a big point of difference. I’m not sure if Ewing should’ve won the heat but idk if I would label it the “biggest robbery in surfing history”.

[@1001brodrigo]

The fact is that Brazilians are the best in the world right now (6 titles in less than 10 years), and they are dominant in all kinds of waves and every kind of maneuver. They are acrobats and are the best at performing the hardest maneuver in the sport: airs. Aussies and Americans can't fly as Brazilians do, so the WSL is trying to make the game easier for then. Even so, Brazilians keep on winning.

[@pbo5131]

It seems like the judges are going to start taking into account how someone actually looks on a wave again! Let's hope. Imagine how fucking good Italo would be if he had good style.

[@JackH2254]

Yeah it seems like the judges have added “style” to the scoring criteria, which is very subjective so I’m not sure if it should be part of the criteria. That said, rides in wave pools can become very monotonous so style might become more advantageous on a wave such as this.

[@dosss_]

medina missed the entire barrel section on his 8

[@Giggle-ing]

Ethan’s 9 was much better surfed than Medina’s 8. No debate. Gabriel took off later further down the pool. His beginning turns weren’t close to as good as Ethan’s. His variety of turns was not in the same class. Ethan’s aerial was much more technical than Gabe’s. Brazilians cry about everything they don’t win and are sure it’s racism. He simply got outsurfed in the right. We can debate the left now.

[@shacktime]

Laughable. Those first two reverses were nothing special. Groms stick those all the time. The oop was the only really critical move on that wave. Medina needed to stick the flip on his last wave as none of the previous moves were big enough to matter. Medina had the best right, but not by much, while EE’s left was excellent. It was a close-ish heat but Ewing had the advantage.

Good stuff! Not sure what everyone's complaining about but it seems like people are reacting with emotion because their guy didn't win. I understand that it feels bad when your favourite doesn't get it done but I don't get where the comments about corruption and favouritism are coming from. If you look at the heat objectively, Ethan's right was clearly the best wave of the heat; two reverses including a corked out air on the end, multiple tail blows, and a deep barrel. Sure, his left was less exciting, but again there were multiple turns where he blew the fins out the back of the wave and finished with another reverse. I think Medina was definitely looser in his turns and had a bit more progression but I can't look past the quality of Ethan's turns, his clean rail lines and control. Maybe I'm asking too much but instead of screaming robbery and claiming to be victims of favouritism and racism, try and explain why Medina's two waves were better. If anyone can make a good argument I might change my mind. Helpful hint: if you're going to talk about corruption and bias and feelings it won't work.

[@brasilsurfguru]

you got it spot on......a lot of fans don't even surf. they can't see through their bias. Ethan was so fast and smooth with bigger manoeuvres .

[@leonardofernandessurfing]

I don't think it was robbed, but scores were off. Disagree with you on Ethan's right being the best wave of the heat. He did one good nosepick reverse in the middle and an ugly (although I'll probably never do better) air reverse at the end, he should get his score deeply discounted there (where I think judges overlooked the flaws). His turns were smooth but lacked power/ precision (he was hitting too soft and too late, throwing less spray than Medina in his left). He did get barreled, but nothing major. Medina on the other hand, not only threw buckets, but had two nosepick reverses and skipped the barrel to throw the craziest crazy alley oop (which I think it was the only alley oop of the day) at the end, so he shouldn't get his score discounted because of skipping the barrel (and I think they discounted). On the backside, I'd say it was an even battle, Medina did get an edge on scores, but the error on the forntside more than offset it.

Tá na hora de colocar no papel o critério de pontuação das manobras, o que vale mais,menos, entubar vale mais, aéreos, critérios e notas de drops,etc.os básicos nas ondas, velocidade, agressividade,etc. Parece que mudam o julgamento a cada competição.

[@MauricioZarske]

Inacreditável o que estão fazendo com os BRASILEIROS, acabei de assistir a final do ítalo e ver que ele não foi o único a ser ROUBADO é muito triste, como vocês tem coragem de fazer isso? 🤮🤮🤮

[@matt8746]

Ethan was more powerful all round. I expected to see some controversy but this was pretty clear. Bigger manurers, deeper tubes.

[@davelospinoso9022]

Ethan has twice as much power as Medina, well earned victory with that last run.

The Judges scoring got worse in Italos heat

[@bobjohns-qt5uc]

Everybody's complaining but im old and i remember when ochy beat curren at Huntington and it was easy to see the winner and the surfing was pretty non radical compared to today, the guy with one big move won, maybe today theyre so good and similar that you can't really say whos better. I just watch and feel whos better and i felt italo

[@rodrigobadaro9687]

First comment I've ever posted here, because this a BLATANT robbery! Not even a 9, while Ethan had a 9.07? Can anyone be accountable for this? Shame.

[@marcelsouza8644]

Para Medina, ser melhor não é suficiente. Ele precisa ser melhor sem deixar dúvidas, aí os árbitros dão a vitória para ele. Medina surfou mais de acordo com as exigências da piscina, com mais manobras arriscadas, mais aéreos. Mas os critérios se inverteram.

[@wilitorastamovil]

Clearly gabe lost , fall two times , no complete what do you expect ?

[@tiocogumelo]

Wtf is that dude

[@viniciusbrand451]

WSL X MEDINA, quem vencerá???

[@Amarelos411]

Principalmente no surf ranch os juízes tem que valorizar quem tenta buscar algo mais nessa onda…ethan em um surf conservador total

[@Jb-mi2rm]

But I Don't Know Arch Angel Micae Where?

[@diegofelipe1398]

Unbeliveable what WSL did

[@rectum5754]

What did they do?

[@ELLE-wd6uz]

​@@rectum5754 informe se.

[@jrobertodeoliveirasilva5417]

A “VITÓRIA” do Iwin sobre o Medina gerou uma boa grana para os juízes, Iwin 9 Medina 7?!?!?!…. só num campeonato com ladroes como juízes 😱😱😱

[@florianopinto3179]

Mas uma vez Gabriel medina 🔪🍴🍴🍴 covardia pura

[@iseeyourschwarz8973]

All i heard was "wah wah didn't land the kerrupt flip" so obviously they didn't score progression. Rev 3's dont score anymore. Its just a regular turn thats as old as smartphones

[@vanislandsurf]

someone put a side by side comparison together please. I thought Medina had it myself.

[@lobato5369]

Nossos meninos ganharão quando for a sua hora !

[@KJ-pm4gg]

Na moral .. foi empate.. porém as duas melhores ondas tu caiu mané...vc pode mais...ficou devendo..na moral..o carq mereceu passar sim

[@mateusgadelha30]

Medina foi mais agressivo!!!

[@nahumh8360]

Ethans bottom turns are definitely more fluid than Medinas. However, Im no judge.

[@Loreto494]

Shame.. Shame... Shame... Shame

[@vinifernandes8]

Aehhhhhh GARFO SL. NOIS DA ZN VAMO ESVAZIA ESSA PISCINA...

[@mess_noise]

Speed Power Flow has been the key element of WSL over the years particularly considering it’s a small wave event.. airs at this wave ain’t that appealing honestly ‘It’s still a wavepool comp’

[@lucasnagandaya]

If u guys want to live in the 90's till u learn some new moves, we dont care, just say it before the tour begin. that's all we ask for.

I live in Saquarema, but o won’t go to the beach. WSL is the new FIFA! “The Salt corruption.”

[@danilosilva2688]

I N A C R E D I T A V E L oque fizeram com o Medina e com o Italo. #worldSHAMEleague

[@MAXPETER10]

O maior roubo da história, nunca pensei que chegariam a tanto. A primeira onda do medina para esquerda com certeza foi superior ao 9.07 do Ethan.

[@michaelstrode8924]

Ewing was superior in this one. Had Medina landed that air and not nose dive, Medina wins. Had Medina used his own style of airs and random tricks he easily beats anyone except his own Brazilian counterparts that can also go full airs/tricks. Medina lost with himself by using a more traditional style that can be beaten. Problem and reason for all the drama bs is the points/scores did not clearly define Ewing as the winner. Ewing had a 7 but also a 9 lit the drama fire. A final tied score was the dramatic fire explosion.

[@carlinhossurf387]

Roba memo😂😂😂😂😂na caradura😅😅😅😅😅kkkkkkkkk

[@mateusgadelha30]

Só param o medina assim. Se roubar o homi.

[@sergio-lt9498]

Mais uma vez a WSL mostra que não esta comprometida coma qualidade e coerencia no julgamento das ondas, nitidamente o Gabriel foi prjudicado por um julgamento tendencioso e favoravel ao Ethan, que não tem culpa de nada. Quem perde é o esporte e a evolução do surf, a WSL esta decadente mesmo, daqui a alguns anos provavelmente veremos surgir uma nova entidade que ira promover o campeonato mundial de surf com bases mais honestas e justas! E pensar que existem juizes brasileiros participando desses julgamentos tendenciosos e nitidamente incorretos, a WSL não tem mais capacidade para administrar campeonatos mundiais!

[@arthurricci6825]

claramente a melhor onda da bateria foi a esquerda do medina, mas a notas nao representaram a realidade. A comparação e simples as notas tambem deviam ser.
