Mick Wins Trestles

Mick Fanning has just won the Hurley Pro at Trestles, beating Dane Reynolds by a combo score.

Mick was on fire starting with a 6+ before dropping in two 8s when the waves returned late in the heat. Dane went big on every wave but just couldn't stick enough to win.

It was a big day with the contest running from Round 4 all the way to the final. The waves were pretty good but a bit inconsistent. Some heat suffered from long lulls with others full of waves.

Mick should head up the ratings with most of those around him falling early. Brazilian Adriano De'Souza has pushed into second and continues his stellar year. Slater made the semis so should move well into the top 10.
