ASP International News (09/2007) III
Al Hunt's Situation Room - Monday, September 17, 2007
With not much WQS action going on this week, I figured I would do all our campaigners a favor and analyze a rarely talked about point. Today class, we’ll learn about “Sleepers”. “Sleepers” are what I call members of the ASP Foster’s 45 who come out of nowhere towards the end of the ’QS season and ruin everyone’s day. These elite tour surfers may be hovering towards the bottom of the ratings at the moment, but with several of them dropping 0’s over the next couple of months, there can be some serious shakeups in the ratings.

California phenom Timmy Reyes is back on the Foster’s ASP World Tour after being out with injury all season. After sustaining a horrific knee injury while competing last October in Santa Cruz, Reyes went under the knife and through a huge rehabilitation program. Only back in the board for a short while, Reyes will return to competition at the upcoming Quiksilver Pro France, and rumor has it that the powerful natural-footer is in sizzling form. ASP caught up with Timmy a few days before he flew out to get the inside story…

Just when you thought the man had won every surfing accolade and record there is, Kelly Slater scalped another one over the weekend with his win at the Boost Mobile Pro. Slater’s latest victory marks his 34th career World Tour win, shattering the 33-win mark he previously shared with former three-time ASP World Champion Tom Curren. Curren held the record for 16 years before Kelly tied it at Bells in ’06, and it’s taken the Champ 18 months to break it.

Once again, the ASP swept the Surfer Poll awards last week. The gala event is arguably North America’s biggest “wear-yet-best-duds” occasion and went down Tuesday, September 11 at the Grove of Anaheim and everyone showed up. Collecting thousands of votes from surf fans around the world, the Surfer Poll Awards truly is a vote of the people, and the people have spoken. The current ASP Foster’s scalped 9 out of 10 for “Best Male Surfers” and the ASP Women’s World Tour campaigners received 4 out of 5 for “Best Female Surfers”.

Following a stunning finale to the Boost Mobile Pro presented by Hurley at Lower Trestles, the ASP Foster’s 45 are jet-setting across the pond to the sands of Hossegor for the upcoming Quiksilver Pro France. The upcoming event will kick off the European leg of the Foster’s ASP World Tour which will play a pivotal role in the race for the 2007 Foster’s ASP World Title. Fanning is still out in front, but will Slater continue his campaign throughout Europe?
