'What’s the holy grail of surfing? Is it winning the world title, or is it coming out with the video of the year?

Well, obviously it’s to win the world title. But I’m in a different category because I’m not on the ’CT and I’m not after winning the WQS. I’m just after my own goals. I want to go out and stick big moves and stick rodeos--and any kind of flip or anything I see any kid do that looks interesting. Kelly brought the rodeos to us and showed us how to do it, and some guys started doing them. But it’s kind of funny--you don’t see those guys in the top ten doing rodeos and big flips. They’re out there trying to win world titles, and we’re out here trying to make surfing more progressive. Guys like Dane, Yadin, and myself are just out there trying to progress the sport, and meanwhile, it’s just kind of stagnant on the ’CT.'

Deixa ver se entendi: Faltam-me culhões para enfrentar a barra de correr o mundo atrás de pontos suficientes para entra no WCT. Ganho uma fortuna sem me aporrinhar, por que diabos botaria meu traseiro na reta ?
Kelly e os outros caras querem apenas ser campeões, movimentando (e apimentando) um público jamais imaginado pela ASP, enquanto eu, Dane e Yadin somos estrelas (com suas carinhas entediadas de super modelos) dos nosso próprios vídeos - filmou aquela onda ?
Enquanto isso, Jordy Smith (olho nele!), roda, apita e chama os comerciais.
