Andy Irons hasn't quite been lighting Chopes on fire, but he's still going, and that means bad news for whoever is in his heat.

Bruce Irons en route to defeating Leonardo Neves.

To be honest, the channel is kinda hurting for chicks this year. Meet Miss Butterface. No lifejacket needed here.

If I had to put $100 bucks on someone to win going into the final day of the Billabong Pro Tahiti, my money would be placed on CJ Hobgood.

Dean Morrison is quietly one of the more in-form surfers of the event...

A tense pre-heat moment with tour rookies Dane Reynolds and Jordy Smith? Not quite.

After taking out one Brazilian (Heitor Alves) Kai Otton has his sights set on Adriano De Souza.

Kelly Slater air dropping his way to an uncharacteristic 17th place.

Kelly being consoled in the channel after his loss to Manoa Drollet. Poor guy...

Long time friends Kelly Slater and Manoa Drollet share a laugh after Kelly's exit from the Billabong Pro Tahiti.

Over the course of two heats, Manoa Drollet has beaten Jamie O'Brien once and Kelly Slater twice. Who's next!?

Roy Powers during the bodysurf expression session...

WTF? WCT Rookie Tiago Pires from Portugal drops in on Parko after having him combo'ed and then goes nuts on the judges earning himself a hefty fine. Rumor has it the Euros were just as upset on the Web cast messages.

After taking out Pancho Sullivan, Timmy Reyes will go up against giant killer Bruno Santos.

While he may look dead in the water, Wardo got a ten on this one.

ON THE COVER: As much as we wanted an image of one of the young rippers from the Who’s Now/Who’s Next list to appear on our cover, when this sequence of Flynn Novak came in, it was pretty much decided on sight that this had to be a cover.
