Rookies Charge at Quiksilver Pro

WQS Stars Make Good on Tour
With a sudden jolt, new blood has invaded the tour. From Brazil, Hawaii, and Australia, they are killing giants left and right. While the fall of CJ Hobgood, Bruce Irons, and Occy was surprising, it was lightning fast Mick Fanning's loss to powerhouse Pancho Sullivan in marginal surf at Fanning's homebreak that had spectators reeling. Pancho has been a class act since the early 90's, and his current level looks good enough to make a run on the title. If he is winning in 2 foot slop, wait until he is air dropping in Tahiti. This year will be interesting.
