Still cant get the just of this "competition"

 

looks like a bunch of celebs spending sponsors' money.

 

I get it's a marketing ploy, but does nothing for my motivation at work....

Greg must have had a bad round of golf.. won the MTB and 2e in surfing. . ;)

 

Boys will be boys.. extra entertainment on the side while the surfing was going on in Jbay.. I think it's rather cool. . Bring in some of your sponsored athletes and tell them go mal and enjoy.. hell if not why not.

Showing my age here, but anyone remember the Super C Sportsman of the year. The rugby and soccer guys generally dominated. I remember one year that they brought out a Dutch cyclist, poor oke couldn't do a pull up.

They should scrap the golf and do shirtless rock climbing in it's place..

 

Nothing wrong with that.. a surfer and a downhill rider shirtless can only draw in crowds. .

 

Oakley. ... do you hear me?!!!!!
