Although it seems that he is always number one Kelly Slater has moved to the top of the World Title Race after his second place in Brazil. The event was won by the youngest surfer in the contest, rookie and local boy Jadson Andre by less than half a point. It was his first win and now sees him into equal fourth with Mick Fanning.
Taj's 17th has dropped him to third 250 points behind Jordy Smith. However it is really early in the year. Hopefully the 17th will be one of TB's dropped scores. J-Bay and Teuphoo are coming up, both events he does well at, especially J-Bay.
