We are pumped for Portugal... with the epic waves of Supertubos and a title race that is more spicy than a chouriço. Julian looked on insane in the air, stomping some crazy airs to take the win in France. Gabby was on form until he got taken out by Julian in the semi's and Toledo was very unlucky in a high scoring affair against Callinnan.
What does than mean for Portugal? Well they are similar waves in a lot of ways, slabbing pits, chunky wall and bowly boost sections all over sand.
Quick Hot Picks for the event.
1. Julian Wilson
2. Filipe Toledo
3. Fredrico Morias
4. Griffin Colapinto
5. Michel Bourez
6. Ryan Callinnan
7. Joan Duru
8. Kolohe Andino
Any of the top 3 are great options, but for us Julian and Toledo are our top choices... go Julian for World Champ. Next you can't go past the local charger Fredrico, and the young flair of rookie Griffin. Ryan really impressed in France, and Bourez, Duru and Andino are due a huge result.
Good luck, there is a short window between events so get your team in before 16th October 2018.
