Australian Joel Parkinson surfed a perfect heat to etch his name in the history books at the Billabong Pipeline Masters yesterday. The current World No. 4 scored two perfect 10s to become the only surfer to earn a perfect 20 out of 20 heat total at Pipeline. Parkinson eliminated Vans Triple Crown front-runner and Hawaiian local Dusty Payne in the process. I never thought I would get two perfect 10s, Parkinson said. Its not something you hear about every day, so Id never really thought about doing it. I definitely claimed it like I had won an event for a second, but then I had to settle down and tell myself, All you did was make a heat! The next heat I paddle out for, Ill have to remember that." Nine-time ASP World Champion Kelly Slater is the only other surfer to score a perfect 20 out of 20. He did so in a 2005 final at Teahupoo, Tahiti to win the contest. "Kelly did it in unreal fashion, mine was a just in a third round heat, but its at Pipe and its definitely something that when I grow old, Ill think, I did something in my career my names next to Kellys on that one," Parkinson said. "That was a big heat for the Triple Crown for sure, Parkinson said. I have to start thinking more about the Triple Crown now. I have to forget about those 10s and start surfing heats from now on and not get too ahead of myself." Slater surfed his first heat since clinching ASP World Title No. 9 today and was not surprised by Parkinsons performance earlier in the day. Id expect Parko to be the guy to do that. Slater said. He is such a magnet and not every guy can get in sync like Parko does he gets on a roll and it gets scary. He will probably go on to win the Triple Crown judging from the heat he had today. Slater has won the Pipeline Masters a record five times, but is taking a very laid back approach to the event in 2008. He has already won five events of the nine he has competed in this season. A win at Pipe would be great, but to be honest with you, it doesnt really matter at this point, Slater said. Not that Pipe doesnt matter, but Im just enjoying not having the constant contest stress. If I win it is definitely a huge bonus, but in a way, Id like to see somebody else win someone who hasnt won it before. Ive got a couple, Andys got a couple, Bede won one last year. Maybe its Parkos year or maybe Brucey will pull off another win here to finish his year off. Despite losing to Shane Dorian (HAW) in Round 2, Dane Reynolds (USA) will round out the year the highest rated rookie in 2008, making him a likely candidate for ASP World Tour Rookie of the Year. Reynolds had to sit out two events this year because of sickness and injury, but will still finish in the top half of the ratings. It was kind of anticlimactic year there at the end which was kind of a bummer, but overall it was a lot of fun, Reynolds said. Its been good, and being out of the last event injured, I had a chance to reflect and get excited about next year. Im pretty pumped. People were hitting me up about that all year and I was like, Cmon, cool it, Reynolds said. But if I do get it, it would be really cool, you only get one chance at that. Only one more day of competition is needed to wrap up the event and organizers predict that bad weather will hinder running tomorrow but that Friday could see better conditions and swell. An official call will be made tomorrow at 7am.
