A little loss of control there.
Actually, Malina, I wanted to thank you.
All right, four minutes left,
All right, Malina Birch dropped in on that inside roll, nice bottom turn.
All right, Rockwell, it looks like at the ten minute mark
And a strong carve off the top
And Bethany Hamilton still stuck in the impact zone, Rob.
And for most people, that consists of four walls and a welcome mat.
And it can help you get a new perspective.
And sometimes, you wipe out and end up in the impact zone.
And surfer in black takes control of the peak.
And that is a high score.
And you're going to be showing a lot more than your sick rides.
And your support over the past few weeks.
And, of course, there's my best friend Alana.
Any particular reason?
Are you busy right now?
Aren't you afraid?
As she kicks out to the Challengers
At least she was treating me like I was real competition.
Be patient, honey.
Because of your love
Because the remainder of your arm is so short,
Because you never know what's over the next wave.
Ben Aipa.
Bethany Hamilton 's appearance here is truly a remarkable comeback.
Bethany Hamilton is holding nothing back.
Bethany Hamilton, nobody is as tough as you.
Bethany unable to get into that wave.
Bethany!
Bethany! Bethany!
Big bomb on the outside
Big snap off the top.
Bigger than any tidal wave.
Black, Malina Birch, you're in first.
Blue, Bethany Hamilton, you're in second
Bo, Hamilton goes down hard in the impact zone, and she is struggling.
But it didn't count.
But people like normal, Mom.
But that's crazy.
But they'll keep their best two waves for the final score
Come on, it's a long paddle around the reef.
Dad, please don't cry.
Dad, where's the shark at?
Did you remember your socks?
Doctor Rovinsky, we need this room stat!
Fine. I'll pay you back.
For I know the plans that I have for you, says the Lord.
For what?
From the moment I caught my first wave,
Get up here. Come on. Come on.
Gets a nice vertical off the top there
Go ahead, say it
Got it all on camera.
Grab the foot of the board. Okay?
Has been disqualified for the interference.
Hello.
Hey, Bethany! Can I get your autograph?
Hey, don't worry about it. It was a junk wave anyway.
Hey.
Holt, you didn't tell them, did you?
How are you?
How's my favorite patient?
I can't even paddle out to the lineup past the big waves.
I don't need it.
I don't think they know how not to compete.
I have something even better actually.
I knew she wouldn't come in.
I mean, even if you did miss my last competition and all.
I need to get to the beach.
I saw you surfing out there this morning. You were amazing.
I say that's an understatement.
I think I got my courage from Jesus Christ.
I thought you were going to die out there.
I was born in Hawaii to two die hard surfers.
I'll start it for you!
I'm a genius.
I'm not the one who's going to be weeping.
In blue, Bethany Hamilton.
In white, Lalani Bri.
In yellow, Kaila Kahani.
Inside of the biggest wave of the day.
It was real.
It wasn't a dream!
It's a teenage girl from the North Shore. Shark attack.
It's healing nicely. You all right?
It's not going to be easy
Just 30 seconds left on the clock.
Just a reminder; ladies and gentlemen
Keep on the board, keep on the board.
Ladies and gentlemen, Malina Birch is up and riding again.
Let's just get in the water already.
Looks like the girls have spotted something on the horizon.
Malina Birch taking the inside off of Bethany Hamilton.
Mom, the car!
Mom?
Mountains of water rolling through here at Sunset Beach
Nice wave for Alana Blanchard
No one has come close. She's by far the person to beat today.
No way!
No!
Off the bottom, coming up.
Oh, God!
Oh, man, it looks like she broke her board.
Oh, my gosh, that's so amazing!
Okay, Lymar, I hope you remembered your toothbrush this time. Okay?
Okay.
Okay. See you guys later.
Our surfers are anxious to get a final score.
People are so amazing.
Perfect time for what?
Pink, Alana Blanchard, you are in first.
Please don't take her.
Sarah! Hey, thank you for coming
Sets up again for a nice cut back into the white water:
She certainly is in rhythm with the ocean.
She feels something.
She says it was just a normal day like any other.
She was considered the pinnacle of beauty.
She will never be the same.
She's got the wave, David!
She's taken the drop!
She's...
Should be a decent scoring ride for the surfer in blue.
So you can actually beat Mom in surfing.
Something's missing, yeah?
Stay with me, Bethany!
Stay with me.
Surfer in orange, Kelia Moniz, you have a 5.4.
Surfer in white, Nage Melamed, you have a 6. 75.
Thanks.
That arm could not come soon enough.
That was an unbelievable ride by Bethany Hamilton
That's definitely going to be an interference call on Blanchard.
That's enough, come on.
That's not what I'm saying.
The best two waves will be tallied up for the final score.
The greatest surfers, they all have this sixth sense.
The Hawaiian Island Regionals.
The judges give her a 9. 7.
There you go!
There's an eighth grader from North Carolina, who lost his arm.
They gave me a five!
They say home is where the heart is.
They say the Lord works in mysterious ways.
They'll probably just tell us what to wear.
Third place, Nage Melamed.
To End their missing loved ones
Unbelievable. Bethany Hamilton 's amazing wave at the end does not count.
Until then, you pray
Up, up! Get her in here. Move!
Way to go, Bethany!
We begin with our first round of competition.
We love you, Bethany!
We spent more time wet than we did dry.
We're all here.
We're coming to get you!
Welcome to the Rip Curl Junior Nationals Surfing Championship.
Well, if you didn't want it, why'd you let me pay for it then?
Well, it's because I care about you.
Well, that's the time to be patient.
Well, we have surf in the six to eight foot range, it looks like out there.
What am I supposed to do now?
What the judges are looking for
What we have to do is to get you from here
What? What is it that I'm not hearing?
Who would have thought that teaching a kid to surf
Why is she so far out?
Why would they want me to compete?
Why?
Will this be enough?
With only 3 minutes remaining,
With time winding down and no waves on the horizon,
Yeah
Yeah, Ben!
Yeah, if we don't have anything better to do.
Yeah, that's me. Mister jump right in and fix it.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. That's kind of weird how real it looks.
Yes!
Yes!
You can always come and kick it with us. We don't have to wait for the action.
You don't have to do that, Bethany.
You don't have to.
You okay?
You ready?
You sure she can use it in competition?
You sure?
You'll know.
You're a tough opponent.
You're doing a great job training her, Brother Tom.
You're going to be feeling kind of lousy for the next few days, kid.
You're natural born for this. Gorgeous
You're not going to believe how great the house smells.
Alana! Get over here! I can't.
Are you serious? Yup.
Bethany, I'm sorry. I wasn't even... Gotcha.
But she's still fifth! All right, guys,
Dad! Alana!
Genius. You're very smart.
Get me out of here! No!
Give it. No.
Hey, Bethany. Hey.
Hey, sleepy head. Hi.
Hey! Hey!
I don't want it. Bethany
I miss you. Me, too.
I really wanted to go. Okay, come on, let's go.
I want her out of there. The lifeguards are on it.
I'm sorry I snapped at you at regionals. Me, too.
like she always does. She's a jerk!
Maybe for a girl with one arm. By any standard.
Okay. I don't know what that is.
On the board. Please get me to the beach.
Ready for the contest? Yeah.
Remember me? No.
Right there. Now, look. A little back step. Yeah.
She's going into hypovolemic shock. We're almost there.
That guy's ripping it up out there, yeah? Yeah.
Trick or treat! Trick or treat!
Very. Are you? Yeah.
Watch top amateur surf.. Hey, howzit?
What about this? Are you kidding?
What happens at midnight? You'll see.
Where you going? To watch the competition.
Who? It's the guys from Rip Curl, it's no big deal.
