The Inertia

Do you remember what you were doing last February? I do. I was glued to the telly for four days straight, ogling over some of the finest conditions Pipe had seen during a contest in years. I was like a catholic preachers pubescent son seeing a pair of Congo bongos for the first time. I couldn’t get enough. Both Pipe and Backdoor were equally perfect. And of the hundred or so competitors who entered, Jack Robinson was undoubtedly the man to watch. As it turns out, the 18-year-old wonder boy has quite the penchant for nasty, hollow tubes. And it’s precisely the reason why he earned a wildcard into his hometown spot of Margaret River, where potential venues like North Point and the Box offer some of the biggest heaving barrels around. But hey, why tell you when you can see for yourself?
