I don't know what you people were watching, but in like three minutes of viewing time I saw three dudes surfing enormous waves and some women on the beach in bikinis.ChibCU said:Where are the young, bikini models?
Sexual orientation is not exactly a protected class in the eyes of federal law. Not sure what relevant laws may be out there in VA, but I wouldn't go so far as to say it's not allowed.rhfarmer said:Pretty sure that's against the law, VCU

I'm sure it means more to me than it does to you Zack, and if you catch the webcast between sets it can drag a bit, but it's fucking beautiful out there.
rhfarmer said:For some personal backstory. I watched three heats. The commentator, Todd Kline is an old friend of mine. In one of the heats, I watched an acquaintance, Fred Patacchia, who I met in Mexico, in a heat with Mark Occhilupo, who I've met a few times and is the same age as me, compete. In the next heat, I watched a pro from Hawaii who's father's art we sell in my store. And every heat has this personal intrigue for me, so it fires me up to watch this stuff.
And rarely, do you turn on a webcast and the lighting is just perfect, and the waves are big and glassy. And, yeah, pro's fall. Sunset is one of the trickiest waves to surf in the world, and there are people in the contest who may have never even surfed it before who are going to be in a heat against a high school kid from Pupukea who surfs there every day and it could literally be the highlight of his life to beat these guys who he has posters of on his bedroom wall.
I'm sure there is something in your life that you are this connected to and passionate about, and even if it does bore me, I would be more respectful to you.
