With rounds one and two of the Hurley Pro Trestles in California done and dusted, and likely a few lay days on the horizon as the current swell fades, let’s take a peek at some more of the prep work that competitors put in before the event began on Sunday. Below is a video of pals Mick Fanning, Taylor Knox, Adrian Buchan, and Owen Wright warming up at Lowers titled “Four Best Friends.” Hopefully that title still rings true as Taylor beat Owen in round two today, sending the world No. 7 packing with the worst result of his season so far.

Another ASP World Title campaigner that advanced to round three was world No. 11 Jordy Smith, seen below ironing out the creases at Lower Trestles as well.
