Day 4 Billabong Pro Jeffreys Bay Called Off

July 14th, 2008 by Adam

Day 4 of the surfing contest is called off again.  Mike Parsons, the event director, predicts more swell for Tuesday and hopes to get things rolling again.  Monday, July 14, is a free surf day while the remaining ASP Top 45 surfers wait for the swell to arrive.

Here is a funny clip of pro surfers trying to speak with a South African accent.  Surfers from different geographic locations have their own slang and local surf terminology.  Surfers from California, Hawaii, Australia, South Africa, and other surfing communities have their own surfing slang and some of the terminology is quite funny.  

Guess what I am trying to say in my best South African accent?

Hey, my bru, howzit.  I will see you just now on The Surf Blog Spot bru, since the waves are really lekker bru !!!

Here are some top ASP surfers trying to speak in their best South African accent
