Billabong Pro Mundaka: If it hadn’t been for the very last day of the waiting period, this year’s edition of the Billabong Pro Mundaka would have been renamed Billabong Pro Bakio. Welcome to Shralp Surf episode 40. Apart from the Semis and the Final, all rounds had to be held at nearby Bakio, unfortunately a rather mediocre beachbreak. If the contest would have been held in pumping Mundaka waves, the general outcome could have been a different, but in the end, the top surfers of the season where the last surfers standing. It was Mick against defending champ Bobby Martinez and Kelly against Taj in the semis. Bobby, on his forehand in rhythm beat Mick in semi number one. Kelly didn’t find any scoring waves in his semi against Taj at all and had to settle for equal third. The final got exciting again after Taj came back with a 9.33, but the ocean went flat for the last few minutes. So it’s Bobby back to back and the title will most probably go down in Brazil. Trilogy: by Billabong and Taylor Steele, Taj, Andy and Parko…These three names simply means: must see. The movie already premiered in the States and Europe and is available in the best surf shops. Billabong Junior Series Final, Bells Beach, Australia: The Billabong Junior Series came to an sensational end at Bells Beach at the beginning of October. Julian Wilson turned on a performance of power and precision as he carved his way to first place, defeating Tim Wrench. Winner of the Series is Mitch Coleburn, Julian Wilson came second, Heath Joske third.

What does shralp mean?
In sports such as surfing and skateboarding, the expression shralp has been around for a long time, but somehow it got lost along the way. Shralp is a merger between to shred and radical. Just imagine a surfer tearing the lip of a wave apart or a skateboarder grinding along the top of a pool. Can’t you here the noise it makes? Shralp!
