Ethan Ewing vs Jack Robinson | Corona Open J-Bay - FINAL FULL HEAT REPLAY

Full heat replay of the final with Ethan Ewing vs Jack Robinson at the Corona Open J-Bay
At the edge of the world awaits the best right-hander on Earth. The endless pointbreak is a blank canvas for the world’s best surfers to draw creative lines. But J-Bay’s perfection is matched by the pressure of the fight for the WSL Final 5. With just two events remaining, time is running out for the title hopefuls to rise up the rankings and clinch their spot in the Rip Curl WSL Finals.

Stoked not to see too many skateboard tricks, as an old timer dinosurfer I love the beautiful carves and long lines and while the judging is always subjective, either guy could lay claim to that final and personally I would have called it a draw.

[@joshuaj316]

I WOULD LOVE SOMEONE TO MAKE A COMPILATION OF EVERY ETHAN EWING HEAT IN THIS CONTEST! So beautiful to watch! So stoked for his first CT victory!!!

Looks like it's on you, J...

[@bradnelson4778]

Best final in years. Very different styles, both effective and brutal, and flow wins the day.

[@markbrown-sb2zm]

Good to see an Oz renaissance.O'Leary was super powerful. Ewing is so compact in stance which makes power,but super smooth and lovely flow,great to see.

[@saltedgnome3576]

@@KanyeKetchup Those guys are all great surfers, but none of them can charge as hard or throw airs as high as Jack. Don't forget he is one of the best at riding barrels too. Jack is like Frederico, Leo and Joao, but turned up an extra notch. That's just my opinion though

[@joaopedrocury5759]

My two favorites non-brazilian surfers right there, Jack reminds me of Medina due to not having the best style, but definetly being one of the best athletes overall. And Ethan reminds a lot of AI, style and strenght at its best

Congrats to Ethan for the 🏆

[@mikeuptegrove]

I was wondering how Ewing won when I first heard…”using his priority”. 🙄 I love how in the WSL, “using priority”, works to the point of completely dropping in on the next guy who WAY out positioned you. We’re not talking two guys at the peak, one with, “priority”, we’re talking one guy up and riding from a mile away having to bail and go over the falls when guy with, “priority”, drops in five minutes later. That cracked me up. Only in the WSL. Real life: 👊🤛🤛👊

[@edawg654]

Ethan has timeless, immaculate style. I hope that we can see some more of that emotion in the future as he can sometimes make it look too easy. Well deserved, and made his family proud I’m sure. Buy Bitcoin and escape the fiat Ponzi and financial oppression.

[@atm083]

[@bafflezbiz]

Jack got robbed. Judges clearly wanted E to win and you see that in the scores. Too bad that J flailed at the end on that wave that he "faked". He was super aggressive on the early sections and I woulda give him the final based off his other waves with that final attack to push him over the edge.

[@collincoffey5882]

13:30 mark. Jack explodes and should've got a solid 8. 'Pool skating' 'Loose' 'Skating'....a few of the correct adjectives used and some ridiculous excuses for him getting a lower score.

[@justintaylor3385]

Idk guess I watched a different heat… Jacks turns looked way more critical to me. Ethan smooth but always a touch ahead of the curl. Jack took it vert and blew the tail Im the most critical part of the waves.

[@bobh1208]

You musta been watching the heat I did (Russian hacking, no doubt)... those Cozy Bear bastards somewhow made Ewing's swoops look like swoops instead of carving cuts, with the board only getting on edge when he swooped it back leftward so that the face steepness made it look on edge... without the maddening inconvenience of actual edge-work. Hell, one of Jack's laybacks was more carved-into.

[@petecabrina]

Ethan's wave was just bigger and a bit smoother transitions between turns I think. Wave quality has been a bit factor in scoring this comp.

[@collincoffey5882]

Exactly

[@iblong9505]

E² was a bit over scored on the 9.1, but deserves to win that comp as much as Jack. Great final!

[@collincoffey5882]

Yep. The announcers literally forecasted Ewing's win at the beginning of the commentary but whatevs. Robinson put in more risk. Those carves won't win at Trestles

[@tunicozan8816]

Jack always overscored… He is great but does not need that kind of reputation. Ethan rips hard on righthand pointbreaks, it is pretty beautiful to watch. Well deserved! Aos brasileiros, fica feio reclamar de tudo a toda hora. Perde-se credibilidade se em toda derrota for este chororô. Neste evento pelo menos não houve nenhum brasileiro prejudicado. De qualquer forma, Filipe vai depenar todo mundo na final.

[@guillermomontero4720]

Overscored? You're nuts. Noticed how hard he buries his back foot on every turn. The most powerful surfer on tour, amazing barrel rider and a beast on all conditions. You're getting confused

[@whoaitsjape]

@@tunicozan8816 i love felipe and he deserves the win, but if he skips out on Teahupoo he just further cements the impression that he can't surf well in larger waves of consequence. Believe me, (as a non brazo) I want him to prove everyone wrong. But if he skips out on Teahupoo and wins the title, he's going to have a big asterisk on his title in the eyes of many.

[@markdepena6238]

wave for wave. these two guys are the epitome of perfect surfing on a canvas that lends to beautiful carve surfing. A pity that someone had to lose this awesome final. On saying that Ethan surfed the perfect heat. His transitions from rail to rail were flawless and aesthetically pleasing to watch. Jack's ability to recover from radical positions he gets his board in is uncanny. this is all next level. Though I must say I have really enjoyed the backhand attack....reminiscent of a young OCCY from the movie 'Pump'.

[@didymostruespeal]

How many other surfers have to turn off these commentators.?Overblown opinionated poop coming out of their mouth... The judging is a joke if you do something worth a 10 in the beginning of the day you get a four but if you do something worth a five at the end of the day ,/final you get a eight or a 9... The fact this is the only professional League .means surfing is losing... If you check the surfing from the women 11 years ago it was more progressive than it is now . Nike 6.0 leave a message on KZbin. this is due to the judges wanting old rail surfing...
