At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the Gold Coast's run of incredible swell just won't let up. We showed Mick Fanning get barrelled the length of Snapper Rocks, backed it up with a posse of brash talent getting stuck into more epic waves, and now round it out with a collection of local legends, and the odd ring-in – take a bow, Sebastian Zietz – striking a beautiful balance between deep tubes and critical turns at Snapper and on down the line to Kirra.
The first event of the year is but a week away and, as the top dogs flly in from around the world, here's hoping conditions stay the same. Right now the sandbanks are looking superb, all we need is for the swell to keep producing and this could be the best season-opener in years.
Stay tuned, and in the mean time let John Wiley's latest Filmers At Large edit fire you up for kick-off.
