Gabriel Medina vs Griffin Colapinto | Vivo Rio Pro Presented By Corona 2024

[@jozzieification]

I love how excited the crowd is to see Medina do a carve and a floater 😂

[@alfonsoymateo]

Probably the same face Colapinto fans had after one maneuver layback getting a 6 🙂

[@jozzieification]

@@alfonsoymateo don’t get me wrong I love Brazilians passion for the sport, my feeling is that they pretty much cheering for everyone

[@msalvs]

You can not fall any lower than claiming a check turn+half ass floater.

[@carolynmarion5480]

Great heat thou.. amazing surfing by both competitors. And yes, good luck in the Olympics Gabby

[@dhoover5480]

I'm a Colapinto fan, but man that was too close to call. Medina was doing more power finesse action it seemed

[@petecabrina]

Gabe is finesse master but not so much power, especially in this sht surf.

[@felipealgodoal]

Fiz os cálculos com Medina chegando nas finais ficando em 2° lugar(8000p) no mínimo, em Portugal, Bells e Margaret(etapas garfadas) estaria com 42345p em 2° colado no ranking, JJ e Colapinto logicamente estariam com menos pontos, Ethan e Jack também estaria com menos pontos.

[@carolynmarion5480]

Please put the contest back live on KZbin. It allows us to work because you can have multiple pages open. I’m sorry but the WSL app lock you in just that app it’s not practical if you’re working….

[@kainalu49]

Typical Wsl mismanagement lol

[@franciscosales4691]

6? Really? Super radical, totally underscored might be the best wave of the year!! Should have been at least a 9.5

Impossível medina ter perdido essa Bateria !!

[@Jimz_Zeez]

Griffin was awarded as WSL word champion for 2014 in 2018 it’s pretty obvious that they are rigging him to win the world title

[@adamwhite3994]

He clearly won this

[@scottthomasen8978]

Same deal with Italo this year. They need a brazo so same judges are giving it to him it must be.

[@matthewroy7718]

There's s reason Japan, Spain and US (Huntington Pier) venues aren't part of the World Tour. Brazil never produces worthy, Dream Tour quality surf. Next!

[@kodinwau8472]

maybe should have a comp at Indo too

[@jimmyj1548]

the break was the Final Judge for Medina. No Waves for him! One of the all time greats with over 12 waves riden in the heat and couldnt get a decent score. Not the best place for a CT event

[@Stickboysurfer]

Quit claiming 4s w/floaters please

[@johnflorence2672]

hm I don't think griffin wave was a 6 based on the other waves in this heat.... however gz I guess lol

[@jaycee571]

Griffin always gets overscored, WSL have been trying to gift him a world title

[@gothgurlfriend]

@@jaycee571 This, absolutely. Gone are the days of gritty World Champs earning their title. Instead, the WSL chooses a wealthy favourite and simply pushes them to the title. They'd Love to do it with Brisa as well you can tell - another uber wealthy favourite of theirs who constantly gets overscored and ALWAYS hyped by the commentary drones, same as Griffin. WSL is killing it's own brand.

[@SandroRibeiro-si2kz]

A formação das ondas ,estavam difíceis....o fator sorte nestas situações....fazem a diferença....e o circuito mundial é assim mesmo * NAO É FÁCIL PRA NINGUÉM 😊

[@scottthomasen8978]

I guess if you can get a major score on one air off a closeout, a critical smash lipper on a bigger wave for the heat makes sense. The reasoning being the critical nature of the move. Seems like a spot with potential, but hard to get excited about today.

Medina tá virando freguês do Griffin já! Já está em débito com o Americano

I think the waves Medina was looking for were at J-Bay!

[@Collin-ic9ct]

You mean where Kolohe Andino pulled a huge Alleyoop and made the section (at the time ranked #1)? Please, Kolohe got robbed by a floater

[@doisdedinhosdeprosaoficial9251]

Vou comentar algo pra saber se é só eu que percebi isso. Vamos lá, ano passado e nesse ano, venho notando que empenho do Gabriel nos exercícios físicos tem deixado ele tão forte, que fez (na minha opinião) ele perder a “mobilidade” que tinha para dar aéreos. Antes era muito fácil pra ele! Não precisava de um espaço tão grande na onda…não importava se era de front ou Back. Nessa bataria isso ficou ainda mais nítido pra mim. Devido o porte físico que ele adquiriu, resultou que ele precisa de muita velocidade para “voar”. Basta notar a facilidade que o Yago tem para realizar aéreos num curto espaço. Apesar de o Yago ter quase a mesma altura do Gabriel, mas a massa corporal dele é nitidamente bem menor. Na minha humilde opinião, o corpo que o Gabriel adquiriu se encaixa perfeitamente para ondas de consequência. Tanto é que ele deu um show em Teahupoo! Na minha opinião ele terá que repassar isso. Pois a maioria das ondas do circuito não são de consequência.

[@ZMABR]

O CARA DA 1 MANOBRA E TIRA 6.0 TÁ CERTINHO O JULGAMENTO!

[@vino8348]

deu UMA MANOBRA mesmo com letra MAIUSCULA

[@wpwebdesign8768]

Acho que o Medina não venceria a bateria, pois não fez uma boa leitura das poucas ondas que apareceram. Mas esse 6 aí foi meio estranho.

[@TheGuima1000]

Medina já foi muito garfado pela wsl, mas dessa vez não mereceu a vitória. Fez uma má escolha das ondas, infelizmente. Apesar de estar apresentando um surf muito melhor durante o torneio.

[@vmarquessilva]

6 nessa onda 😂😂😂...meteram a mão no mlk de novo!

[@flaviocavalcanti3764]

Dá logo o título para um gringo, essa roubalheira tem que acabar.

[@gustavomarques704]

na, essa foi justa

[@thomasvinsen1410]

These fans lose their minds even on crap waves. Comical

[@banjothere2751]

Brazilians gonna love this 😂

[@Niletixofficial]

Bro not all fans of Gabriel are Brazilian

[@darkkytv]

Pegue as duas melhores ondas do Gabriel e as duas ondas do Pinto e reveja.

[@nat-fit9791]

I'm Spanish and I love it, not all Gabriel fans are Brazilian

[@chrishubbard1442]

Razor close. Seemed like a tie to me.

[@Collin-ic9ct]

None of this matters. I'm a Yago fan but Jordy got robbed like a store in a riot. A 9.33 for what might've been a 6.5

[@eleazargonzalez7011]

This waves sucks! Brazilian fans are awesome but this waves are not CT level!

Wsl wants anyone to win apart from Brazilians.. it's a shame.... No criteria at all... Sucks

[@scottthomasen8978]

Hey...so legit question. How did Italo win Chopes this year, then? Same fake judgment there too to be consistent? Same crew of judges.

[@scottthomasen8978]

Hey. And now after Italito won this event. You realize how dumb this sounds in light of what we see, right?

[@chrisnomad]

[@scottthomasen8978]

Totally agree. In the end they gave it to italo. 😊

[@ftapiavalentin]

Why there always overrating happens on Griffin waves. This guy is a mediocre always getting the help of judge overrated and WSL commentators.

[@scottthomasen8978]

Dude...I feel the same way about Mangina. Always overscored. Probably because he the cry is free.

[@jerrymarshall2095]

What?the judges let madina lose one
