TC: A round of applause went up for Tom Carroll when he threw his singlet on for the Mitchell Surfing Foundation Expression Session. It was Tommy's first surf here since arriving in France and he schooled the youngsters with snap stalls and Pipe-style caves.

INTENSITY: In the water, where the likes of Dan Ross come in and say "It's heavy out there." And just as intense on land when the surfers burst out the gate for their run through the mob.
