Taj wins

Taj Burrow as won the Coldwater Classic, beating Matt Wilkinson in the final. It's Taj's second win for the season.

Parko made the quarters and Slater round five which means it will all be decided at Pipe. Fanning has a slim chance but would need both of the others to drop out early and while he keeps going. My quick calculations have Slater currently leading on 48450, Parko 44700 and Fanning 38450. To guarantee win number 12 Slater would need to win one more heat than Parko. Parko would need to get at least ninth if he was to go out in the same round.

Lets hope for waves at Pipe.

Cold Water

Parko and Taj through to the Quarters. Yadin out in round three again. Slater is in a very difficult round five heat against Adriano.

Travis Logie is having his annual good event, into round five.

Matty Wilkinson is the form surfer of the event so far.

The event will run tonight (11 pm our time) to crown a champ. Waves look ok and with a fair bit of size.
