Quiksiler Pro - Portugal 2010

So there I was quietly finishing up a nice cup of tea and turned on the live web coverage of the Quiksilver Pro in Portugal (this link may not be available if you read this once the event is over).

Anyway...
I had to take a double look when there are two dudes out surfing with their dogs! The dogs were proper loving it :) I did my best to get some screenshots - which aren't too great, but worthy none the less!

I'm guessing one of the dogs was a seasoned pro - he grabbed the leash as he jumped off after making it all the way to the shore on a super clean wave!

Move over Kelly Slater - make room for Rex!
