There weren’t a lot of Tour guys out this day, but Mick, Parko, CJ, and Damien were charging—those guys are fearless. This is one of Mick Fanning’s first waves of the day, and he was just a little bit behind the section. What is interesting about Cloudbreak is that the wave is so long and there’s so much energy out there that you don’t just hit the reef and come right back up.There weren’t a lot of Tour guys out this day, but Mick, Parko, CJ, and Damien were charging—those guys are fearless.
