Quiksilver Pro Snapper Rocks, Kelly takes third place

Mick Fanning from Australia has won the first event of the year 2007 - the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast at his home break of Snapper Rocks.

Kelly takes third place

Slater was eliminated by Bede Durbidge, who was on gire through the whole event.

"What do you do?” said Slater. “I did good to come back to get the lead and then that wave came. The waves were there to be had and he was just in better sync than me; he had the advantage with that 9.93. I didn’t think that I was going to get back in there. You can’t be bummed losing a heat like that. We both scored high, we both surfed well and he surfed better than me."
