Congrats Mick Fanning! 2007 World Champion
Mick Fanning is the 2007 Foster’s ASP World Tour ChampionIMBITUBA, Brazil (Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2007) Mick Fanning has secured the 2007 Foster’s ASP World Tour Championship title during an action-packed final day at the Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro. Prior to today’s competition, only Kelly Slater and Taj Burrow remained in contention for the World Title but both surfers were eliminated, leaving Fanning with an unassailable points lead on the Foster’s ASP World Tour.
The first contender to fall was Kelly Slater when he came up against a red hot Kai Otton in Round 4. Slater struggled to find waves in the heat and Kai Otton capitalised on the opportunity by eliminating Slater with two strong scoring rides.
Taj Burrow became the final obstacle in Fanning’s path as both surfers progressed to the quarter finals for an exciting showdown.
Fanning put in yet another solid performance to defeat Neco Padaratz in their quarter final match-up and all the pressure was left in Taj Burrow’s court.
Burrow faced fellow Australian Tom Whitaker in the fourth quarter final and both surfers started the heat with a strong ride. Tom Whitaker found a great second wave and scored an 8.83 which left Taj needing an 8 point ride. Although a couple of waves showed potential, Taj was unable to get the score required and was eliminated.
More information will be posted shortly after the finals.
Congratulations Mick Fanning !!!

Hang Loose Pro Postponed by Tornado
IMBITUBA, Brazil (Thursday, Nov. 1, 2007) – Onshore, stormy conditions and a site-smashing tornado offset a slight bump in swell this morning. As a result, the Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro will not run today. Heavy wind and rain picked up the large tents and structures set up to shelter the surfers and VIP attendees, blew it over neighboring fences and even downed a powerline. Event officials will focus on rebuilding the site and another call on the start of the Santa Catarina Pro will be made tomorrow at 7am.
Round 1 Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro Match-Ups: Heat 1: Dean Morrison (AUS), Cory Lopez (USA), Heitor Alves (BRA) Heat 2: Pancho Sullivan (HAW), Rodrigo Dornelles (BRA), Jihad Khodr (BRA) Heat 3: Taylor Knox (USA), Frederick Patacchia (HAW), Simao Romao (BRA) Heat 4: Jeremy Flores (FRA), Ricky Basnett (ZAF), Jean da Silva (BRA) Heat 5: Bede Durbidge (AUS), Greg Emslie (ZAF), William Cordoso (BRA) Heat 6: Bobby Martinez (USA), Phillip Macdonald (AUS), Renato Galvao (BRA) Heat 7: Joel Parkinson (AUS), Adrian Buchan (AUS), Diego Rosa (BRA) Heat 8: Mick Fanning (AUS), Bruce Irons (HAW), Guga Arruda (BRA) Heat 9: Kelly Slater (USA), Kai Otton (AUS), Fabio Carvalho (BRA) Heat 10: Taj Burrow (AUS), Luke Stedman (AUS), Marco Polo (BRA) Heat 11: CJ Hobgood (USA), Raioni Monteiro (BRA), Peterson Rosa (BRA) Heat 12: Tom Whitaker (AUS), Bernardo Miranda (BRA), Gabe Kling (USA) Heat 13: Michael Campbell (AUS), Leonardo Neves (BRA), Mark Occhilupo (AUS) Heat 14: Royden Bryson (ZAF), Josh Kerr (AUS), Shaun Cansdell (AUS) Heat 15: Chris Ward (USA), Troy Brooks (AUS), Dayyan Neve (AUS) Heat 16: Adriano de Souza (BRA), Neco Padaratz (BRA), Victor Ribas (BRA)Labels: SURF NEWS
