Mason threw that heat and he wanted us to know it by kicking out of those two perfectly good right handers.

[@claytonbrown7120]

Why would he do that dummy

[@langbi194]

Why did he throw you can tell he wasn’t trying to win ?

[@AidanGunn]

I wanted Mason to win

[@lukasconrad7732]

Same here

[@scnomad3626]

Medina sucks

[@ericcaloosa371]

We Alllllll did

[@blairakana9984]

Mason ho is so exciting to watch and he has the talent to be on the world surf league tour.

[@BrandenLanfeld14]

I'd rather watch Mason anyday, the waves just didn't show for him.

[@LJTEAM0723]

Just saying... do you reckon Rip Curl would want a Rip Curl rider and their own wild card taking out a fellow Rip Curl teammate in a Rip Curl comp, especially when that teammate is a brazillian juggernaut going for a world title, considering also south america is the biggest surf market in the world.. Mason threw that heat so badly, its obvious...not even mason is that bad in a comp to let conditions like that go, he was pulling straight on some!!

[@vindiesel564]

But mason has family

[@matheuscastello6554]

Medina was very smart to go for turns in this heat imo, if he sat there waiting the barrel his title hopes would have definitely be gone

[@bradford_shaun_murray]

4:32 smacks it too. 5:19 sticks it.

[@greggalemusic]

A humble guy who still understands that surfing is about fun, who is entertaining to watch vs someone who seems to be in love with himself and manages to suck the every ounce of fun out of surfing. Proves to me why competitive surfing makes no sense whatsoever.

[@bradford_shaun_murray]

2:00 the style meister.

[@stromsen87]

Congrats to Medina! but that smooth style of Mason tho 👍

[@samuelsouza4062]

a prancha dele tá perfeita. falta apenas o mar melhorar mais

[@elielsonfnsc]

Parabéns garoto, domínio total de bateria .

[@louischasteauneuf1461]

Mason all the way, wildcard aint wild enough for mase!

[@fiddlestickzmuzik]

Well that was really frustrating to watch, you know Medina is going to hunt down any waves and go to turns regardless of the conditions, why would Ho kick out of 2 perfectly usebale rights because they didn't barrel..? that is poor tactical heat surfing, you'll never beat Medina doing that ever..

[@pedrogaspar1557]

yes, medina is not the best surfer ever, but he's a fierce competitor, i think he is the best in heat strategy on teh tour. cheers

[@parraphrase]

I just got the sense he gave Medina the heat.

[@LJTEAM0723]

parraphrase absolutely he did, stinks of "team orders"...

[@MrNick-]

He was suppose to let Medina win

[@ichinomiyaconbimai5104]

now even the drone has a name..

[@Jetty-xd9yc]

Medina is so light when he turns on a windy day he just gets blown around. Lol, guy needs to bulk up a bit. #TeamMason

[@leonardosantosoliveira1879]

O único campeonato desse ano qe as notas são tão baixas vi bateria qe o atleta passo em 1 lugar com somatório 5 pontos nas suas 2 melhores onda , Portugal desafiador🏄🏿

[@alfievanveen5206]

Hey I’m a 45 year old surfer who rides a 6”6 FireWire with more volume than ur average whale, only surfs mushy 3 foot beach break reforms then complains about the conditions, raves on about “how much better the banks were 10 years ago” and likes to verbally abuse teenagers who rip way harder than me and I’d like to be original and say that I think medina has shite style and throws too many airs, now I’ll go and sit in the car park while glaring at people through the window of my van while writing anonymous comments on stab articles. PS. STRYDER WAZALUSKI IS A SUBTERRANEAN LIZARD PERSON

[@thedudeabides1881]

Bjorn Bjorn Brother you're hilarious. remember when Strider used to ride for lost and the old videos where they'd be smoking huge bongs and shotgunning beers like they were water & now he's a sportscaster for the WSL and we're supposed to take him seriously. F that. you hit it right on the nose he's a dip shit. But he still can surf pipe pretty damn good

[@alfievanveen5206]

Jetty Local damn right my man what a phoney, fuck the WSL let the boy rip bongs and slam cans in the booth PS. HE ONLY CAN SURF PIPE GOOD CAUSE HES A LIZARD MAN

[@thedudeabides1881]

Bjorn Bjorn If only there was more of us out there who don't spew the standard bullshit and speak the truth like you do, I wouldn't be so pissed at all the little punk kids in the water. Most times I'll just take their board turn it over and punch out one of their fins, send them home crying. it's some fun s***. I live here in Ocean Beach Point Loma area so I surf Newbreak and the Jetty a lot. Where do you call home

[@alfievanveen5206]

Jetty Local yeah brotha I’m a little punk kid straight nugging it down on the south coast of the uk

[@alfievanveen5206]

Jetty Local cheers for the advice man, definitely not enough aggression in surfing these days kids think they can just rock up to any break and show no respect to the locals without being put in their place I’ve only competed once and lost my heat because all I did was chop hops and 180 hippy jumps which apparently don’t score too good

[@killersl2]

Ele é monstro Slk🤗🤗🤗

[@kylewattssurfing3266]

Awesomeness cool cool

[@jamessan3377]

Duas ondas do Medina.a primeira e a última . pra qualquer outro surfista,o somatório seria mais de treze pontos 😒

[@danilasad]

Wow!!

[@bluesman7703]

The waves sucked !!! We all know what MASON would done in better surf , WIN !!!!

[@nepabelito]

The surfer pundit is clearly a Medina hater.

[@crf5370]

Exactly why I don't watch wsl garbage.. most these pros are just aggressive hacks.. true surfing iz about style, having fun and showing others the love n dedication you have to the sport.. the sport of Kings, not hacks🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@EthyoDancehallsongmaker]

mason got robbed fuck...

[@wagnersilva2494]

"GABRIEL MEDINA THE BEST"

[@realbruno__]

Esse Mason é um surfista muito ruim! Como ele consegui passar de etapa, pelo amor de Cristo!

[@estel6128]

mason é ruim?tu é um prego mesmo!

[@stunterstyle]

What a waste of a wild card. Great pick Rip Curl... Not! Mason Ho sucks. Doesn't know how to surf in comps. Acting like a clown, losing like a clown. LOL

[@lukasconrad7732]

He got picked because he was the best option for a wildcard, not to win the event.

[@stunterstyle]

So they chose him because they knew he would lose and not be competitive. Ok, that makes alot of sense idiot.
