Hahah!
You too hey?!?!
I love doing that as well--been right on
Last heat of the day --
Big day t'moro--big SWELL forecast!
ElementreeDecember 2007 I would fine that guy who just paddled out!...lol!
Yeah i've been pretty close, just felt they scored reds roll too highly...
Should have been 6.0 most 6.5...cos she rolled off the foam and got caught in the white wash for a long time.
Still the best move so far tho...
ElementreeDecember 2007 Shame...no more rides for white after reds roll.
Ah well you can't win em all!

KellyDecember 2007 The video does not work for me on Firefox so I tried IE which is fine - so give that a go if you're also using FF.
I have sent feedback to the contest organisors.

December 2007
CONGRATULATIONS MARK!! YES! WOOHOO!
That had to be one of the most intense heats I have ever LISTENED to! Unfortunately I lost video feed after the first few runs--tried the different link and still none-- so had to rely on the Portugese or Spanish announcer's interpretation. When I heard the excitement in his voice nearing the end, I had a good vibe it was Mark! YES! I about fell out of my chair! Hahah! So amped and so stoked for you bru, to hear MARK McCARTHY moved up into first position at the end!!
**Billy, wish you were still here to share that enthusiam/excitement with--HAHAHAH! I KNOW how you get as well! Good times.
KellyDecember 2007 ... just got hit up by Mac on Skype --- lol. He only left the water a few minutes ago .... that contest must be so set-up. Anyway asked him about the last wave ...
"good big hi flying invert" was the call.
Anyway, nice one bru ... and see you all back here tomorrow I guess.

Hey Mark--just got back from 3 hours at therapy and bummed I missed the last of the excitement! But Mark, you have put on an incredible performance this year, hey and defintely a year you can be proud of. Been watching you since last January, in the Maui Ledges Comp. So stoked for you! It was obvious you made a positive impression on the El Confital Competition crowd and announcer's as well--they had so much good to say about you and appeared very gracious you were in attendance. You make your fan's proud and I'm sure SA is stoked for you as well. All the best to you as you continue in your endeavors.
ElementreeDecember 2007 Ladies Final in the water now...
Lilly Pollard in front...
ElementreeDecember 2007 Lilly Pollard wins...
Mens Final now in the water...
ElementreeDecember 2007 Uri Valadao...seconds in...busts a big backflip & rolls...scores a 9.0
Ben Player has his work cut out for him...looks to be a great final
ElementreeDecember 2007 Scores as they stand...with under 10 mins remaining.
Ben... 6.0 and 5.50
Uri...9.0 and 8.0...
ElementreeDecember 2007 Uri is killing it!
Set wave...rolls, phat barrel and does a near perfect backflip out of the barrel!
Scores a 9.5
His two scores are now 9.5 & 9.0.
One can pretty much say that besides a miracle...Ben is going to finish in second place.
Well done Uri!

December 2007
That backflip was MAD
ElementreeDecember 2007 Oh my word...
Uri just had the same combo on a smaller wave...
First a roll, followed by a barrel, then backflipped out of it!
Scored a 6.85...
Final result...Uri Valadao wins the 2007 El Confital Pro, Ben Player second!
Ian
