Sure conditions weren't very consistent but robbo pushed kauli into that first one. There were also a few waves he let go unridden so he wasn't very proactive himself.
I think the 3 waves ridden would've been a couple of minutes apart but Kauli looked red hot. So did Jack but it would've been tough even if the waves did come. Shouldn't have had the rest day maybe
Well the same could be said about the American surfers in Los Angeles in four years or in Hawaï if it's organized there. And it would have been unfair for Kauli who has trained hard these last few years not be allowed to participate
Nice wave but a one hit wonder hardly showcasing the best surfers. All these guys can surf this wave so winning comes down to wave selection. Gold medal, congrats and yet has he ever won a world event? Or even got close?
you would be surprised ......Vaast is an amazing surfer he will be on tour in the next couple of years, Kids got power and all the tricks. This Kid is the real deal.
I’ve watched Jack since he was a Grommet I always knew he would succeed Big time and one day World Champion
Vive la France mon Kauli Vaast, magnifique "WOW!" and well super done to the Australian champ too ...
Well done Robo !! Epic stuff. Those were some unbelievable barrels from you and Vaast 🤙🏼
Congratulations to all the surfer's!
Beautiful turns and ride for both! Congratulations!
Todos son grandes surfistas. ¡Felicitaciones!
The sound of that wave is terrifying. Really puts the risk and danger into perspective.
How did the US girl get so much more points with no turns and cutbacks, Brasilian was much better in my amateur opinion 😅
Well done Jack! Congrats to Vaast on the Gold Medal!
So funny to see surfers cheer that much. And first guy's pants almost fall down.
Tolles Video
1 wave only for Robbo in 25 minutes? Doesn't sound like the conditions were suitable for a final let alone Olympic gold.

Medina only go5 one in the semi too. Depressing

That you guys even watch this nonsense.
Kauli Vaast looks like Reggie Belafonte in Surfs Up. 👏🏼
Wow ! Next Olympics : Surf Nazare !
Been the Olympic Games surly they could of restarted at 15min mark with scores keep to truly find a champion 😢
The BBC showed zero of the Surfing, wanted to watch it but this is the 1st clip I've seen.
I was disappointed too.
Why were the Bronze medalists no featured ?
Well done tro all medalists
Huge advantage being local.
Not fair for the other three surfers fighting for a medal with somebody who knew every single angle of that sea.
Well the same could be said about the American surfers in Los Angeles in four years or in Hawaï if it's organized there.
And it would have been unfair for Kauli who has trained hard these last few years not be allowed to participate
What a dumb take
@@Castathon Well that's just true since surfing contests began
something wrong with the sport. it needs new rules to make it more challenging
Where's the Eiffel Tower?
The IOC care so much about surfing they ran it on a junk day instead of waiting till the final day of the waiting period when the forcast is great.
… what? They ran on the Monday. If IOC cared this should be a winter sport, coz it is
@@nicg4552It is winter in the Southern Hemisphere where this was held.
So basically if you get waves you win if not you lose
Nice wave but a one hit wonder hardly showcasing the best surfers. All these guys can surf this wave so winning comes down to wave selection. Gold medal, congrats and yet has he ever won a world event? Or even got close?
seethe harder, it's hilarious 😂
No bronze?
Really just a barrel contest compared to all round technical skills like other venues or sports.
Vaast absolutely has chopes on a string, but let’s be honest about his overall surfing ability, he wouldn’t beat Jack on any other wave on earth.
you would be surprised ......Vaast is an amazing surfer he will be on tour in the next couple of years, Kids got power and all the tricks. This Kid is the real deal.
Yes, not well deserved to win the gold
@@sandmonkey1243 you’re speaking like I haven’t watched him surf.
The point was to beat him on that wave😂
"Goofy" stance lmao
what that was it . 3 waves…
Kauli vast back in the womb
No need for surfing in the Olympics when they have the WSL. Same as skating, BMX etc etc.
They've got world champs for 100m sprint so I guess we better not have them race in the olympics then huh
skating, BMX etc are some of the most thrilling and fun sports at the games. Absolutely worthy of being an Olympic sport, and hopefully there's more.
Thought Surfing would be way more entertaining. Why is it all - get in the barrel and get out? Do they not give decent points for big airs?
This is not an aerial wave brother. Normally it's a 5 second ride
Maybe he can buy some better fitting boardies now.Off putting.
Surfing not an Olympic sport.
Cry some more
the previous one in japan was great to watch, not this
You just don't like watching surfing at the Olympics. It's always better to make things clear.
@@tonybaihao4178 skating is, the ramp is always there..
I think they could have performed better tbh
First! Pin? 📌
1 wave for robbo. Surfing is pathetic
Few times in the heat were he got robbed for priority
@user-hq3sm5yd3t yep. Just wish it was different with surfing. To much luck with mother nature involved to prove the best
Judges were not impartial. The french guy was not the best and won
Lmfao
