Julian leaves, John John stops again, Gabriel is stopped and Italo makes history in Tokyo!
In exactly 08 days, after 45 years of professional sport, surfing has entered a new sphere of sport and visibility, the sport of the gods has debuted as an Olympic sport, surfing and modern dance. In 1912, Duke won a swimming test at the Stockholm Olympiad, at the podium, when he received the gold medal, he expressed his dream of a day to see surfing at the Olympiads, after 109 years.
I would not be able to say in how many countries in the world surfing was practiced in 1912, but with the arrival of IPS in 1975, created by Randy Rarick and Fred Hemmings, competitions started in South Africa sport was becoming popular around the world, however, this did not reflect on the competitive success of other nations. For 38 years, Hawaiians, Americans, and Australians dominated surfing, until a kid emerged who impregnated the lineup more than any other, and in 2014 became the first surfer in the world's first-class, world-class surfer. This kid was Brazilian and spoke Portuguese.
The turn of the table in 2014 boosted a whole generation and made Brazil the biggest power in world surfing, and with that certainty we debuted in the Tokyo Olympiad with a single objective, or ine.

Italo became history in Tokyo.
The siren rang in Tsurigasaki and Ítalo Ferreira surfed the first Olympic wave, for the most superstitious, a sign that gold was to come, superstitions aside, Ítalo not easily made eliminations, or not easily eliminated, for the first time Stairmand and Hiroto Ohhara in the semifinal he made his most difficult confrontation against Owen Wright, until he massacred the inert Japanese Kanoa Igarashi in the final the Japanese seemed already surfacing or not satisfied with being satisfied with their class , perhaps because he knew that there would not really be his place, Ítalo scored 15.14 points against the negligible 6.60 of Ígarashi. The Brazilian made history by becoming the first surfer Olympic champion, Ítalo was confident, was determined, it was great, it was too much, thank you champ.
Gabriel Medina made history for another reason, after beating Julian Wilson and Michel Bourez on the drums where he did his best surfing, the Brazilian ended up becoming the first victim of the trial.
Is surfing a subjective sport? Yes it is! But no surfer in 45 years of professionalization has been stopped so often by the greatest surfing entity, to such subjectivity, as Gabriel Medina was and continues to be.
In the battery against Kanoa Igarashi, which took Gabriel and us Brazilians to a 100% Brazilian final, Medina applied two back airs in larger and heavier waves than the highest Kanoa tube, flying with the board in vertical motion, placing the sterndrive at heights with full rotation, it came back upright, in its normal gravity center, taking two grades from the judges in the 8.00 point boxes. Kanoa made a front air, in a smaller wave, more to the inside, with the board rotating in horizontal motion, using the grab feature to not let the equipment run away, or in that year3. Then you ask, was it robbery? The answer is no! It was just more of the same thing that happened with Gabriel Medina since he joined the elite of world surfing in 2011, this time, in an Olympic environment.
We saw the medalist Rebeca Andrade, silver in the gym, receiving 13,566 points on the beam, but the technical committee of the delegation came in with a resource for reviewing the note, the IOC accepted the judge. Does anyone know where the technical committee of CBSurf was, which did not confirm its position protesting about this battery between Medina and Igarashi? I tell you, CBSurf does not have a technical commission, it did not have a technical commission, it did not have a technical commission in Tokyo, it does not have a position in Brazil, CBS Surfing has not positioned itself with the COI, nor the COB, my only concern is the investment justice, as a result of a fraudulent election, the president, incidentally, with a term expired since December 31, 2020.
Gabriel's “defeat” and Ítalo's victory took out of the closet some opportunists, a sick and evil journalist and a decadent business woman tried to paste the Neolithic image of our up-to-date, Olympic-based Olympic surfers in the Olympics. Be careful with what you read, share or post, we live in an era of opportunists who try to project themselves by trying to denigrate the image of serious people, this time Gabriel and Ítalo were the most successful.
At 27, South African Bianca Buitendag, silver medalist in Tokyo, announced on her Facebook that the competition for the Olympic medal marked the end of a phenomenal chapter in her life. She says that after her father's death her life's ambitions changed drastically, Bianca retires offering the medal to her mother and all those who fight for the daily victories that no one sees. Mature, significant and also enigmatic, good luck to Bianca.

Respect and Reciprocity.
After 10 elite seasons providing great duels, Gabriel Medina won for the last time his career's biggest rival, Australian Julian Wilson, this time in an Olympic showdown. Unlike Buitendag, Julian had already announced that the Olympiad would be his last competition, after the drums, in a demonstration of mutual respect, the two quarrels exchanged their boards: to find the best of my best in my entire career on the World Tour. Huge respect for you, your family, and your contribution to surfing at the highest level. Good luck to you my friend. Thank you for the memories. ” Gabriel replied: “Thanks for the surfboard brother, it means a lot to me. If it wasn't for our battles, I wouldn't be who I am today, you've always pushed and inspired me, thank you for the good times, mate. I confess that I found an attitude worthy of the story of the guys, I also confess that I will miss the always electrifying battles between Gabriel and Julian, I continue to confess, I would like to have seen surfing with a Juliana Wilson complete, one of the best surfing has known in 45 years of professional surfing.
After the defeat for Kolohe Andino, who came back surfing better than when he stopped, John John Florence gave an interview considering the possibility of not competing in Mexico and in Teahupoo. Yesterday, less than a week from the premiere of surfing in Tokyo, he confirmed in his Instagram that he will not compete in the last two stages of the tour, the Hawaiian John informs that John is not completely surfed (has not been completely cleaned up) that happens once in life and he was willing to take the risk, but now he will think long term and do physiotherapy to get back 100% in Pipeline. Kelly's fans must not have been happy with this news.
Returning to the subject of Gabriel and Kanoa, the Japanese received a flurry of insults in his social networks when he posted his medal, hate speech, xenophobia and theories of conspiratorially successful Kanoa , which only made the situation worse, doubling the number of haters who distilled their hatred, however, in the wrong direction.
Kanoa Igarashi was responsible for the air that disqualified Medina, he did his best, any one would do, but he was not responsible for the mistaken grade that he received, because of this, no harm.

Instagram WSL
The WSL is already promoting the Mexico stage, in the campaign it ignored the image of Gabriel Medina, the leader of the circuit isolate, the entity uses the image of surfers who went up on the surfboard and cleaned in Tokyo of sponsorship negotiations, it is better to have the image of Kanoa, after all, Japan is the 3rd largest economy in the world, than the image of the leader. Maybe it's better for business, but definitely ignoring the image of YOUR ISOLATED LEADER is a disservice to surfing.
This was the week of surfing, bitter defeats and sweet victories were part of everyday life at the Olympic premiere, Ítalo Ferreira made history by being the first Olympic champion, too, to have surfed John, John, and Carpet. once he was the victim of the ultimate surfing entity, the one that explains any aberration such SUBJECTIVITY. Is it us? Well, we've watched the story being constructed, a story of injustice for some and of happiness for others, but when it comes to making history in surfing, Brazil is the biggest protagonist, and even among us, subjectivity it was like that at the olympics, it will be like that in the world title.
Aloha!#surf ... Surfing requires strength and endurance for paddling, balance and stability for grabbing waves, body control and mobility for turns, and much more. Train your body to be strong for surfing and notice the difference in the ocean. STRENGTH You may not realize how much strength it takes in your arms and core to paddle and drop into a wave. Plus once you're on a wave, pumping to gain speed, making turns, or landing tricks requires a ton of leg strength. By training out of the water, you can gain noticeable strength that translates when on your board. BALANCE Balance is a key skill of any great surfer. Paddling into waves, dropping in, or even throwing turns or tricks, all of it comes down to balance. It all starts with your feet's contact with the board and transfers up into your core. The exercises in this program are unique to surfing and focus a lot on balance and stability. #wsl #mdshagorsurf
