    As a non-Hawaiian it’s really heart warming to watch this competition. Local legends and heroes from their hometown driving down the street to compete in this event. Super cool.

    Your performance at the 2023 Eddie will be talked about for a long time Mark. You no doubt inspired a lot of surfers across a broad age range with your epic charging on that day. Inspiring to say the least..

      Yep, that's what hit me most in the video. He's done it over and over with just a board. His shaping knowledge is amazing. Miss his brother Derek. R.I.P.

    I love all of this shit-absolutely all of it-this and other videos that popped up from other pros that were there-thanks Mark and everyone else that used this contest to promote their Badass-ness
    This is so well made that it looks like a tv production company with a much bigger budget produced this, very very well done in ALL aspects Mark!!

    Mark, you and the rest of the surfers kept me in front of my Iphone for the entire event, I was cheering for you and in my mind you won the event, going back in the 2nd round and charging those massive swells was crazy.

    Listening to you explain how difficult it was to be in the first heat, makes me respect you and John infinitely more because as an outsider it looked like you 2 were locked in from the start. And you both made top 3 even with the first heat “disadvantage”

  • @jaycee571
    @jaycee571 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I thought you deserved the win mate, some of those drops were knifed perfectly I don't think some of the natural footers could have made it, you make it look too easy and I think the judges missed how technical the start of your take offs were.
    Hope ya get the win next time round, your the most deserving of a win and especially as the first goofy footer to hopefully do so

    The word epic is used way too much, but that was a truly Epic day! Watched the whole stream on Sunday and can't get enough of the you tube vids so many of you guys are putting out. Thanks for inspiring us in the water an for taking us behind the scenes and sharing your legendary day with us!

      Can not imagine the chop. When perfect Indo gets chop on it it becomes beyond gnarly. Ya'll had 5 foot bumps on 50 foot waves. Big Wave Hero's.

    finally a buoy guru speaks: he is suspicious of the readings.
    the storm so close it may have had an extra metre or two? ah sorry an extra 3-6 ft , (in Australia our buoys read in metres)

    @artieborko4988 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mark easily won the connie in my mind. Although, admittedly, the coverage made following who was actually on a wave at any given time extremely difficult.
    The “ok up and riding we have Kel...wait...uh.......we have surfer in red!” Just wasn’t cutting it 😂
    But Mark stood out above all else to me. And not 100% sure what JJF did to place 2nd, although again, that was likely due to coverage.
