After winning the last event in large surf on his home break at Yallingup in April, Redman continued his winning run in Perth this weekend by posting a 9.27 point scoring ride out of a possible 10 to set the pace for his final. There was no looking back for Redman as his fellow competitors desperately tried to match Redman's score, but were unable to replicate the talented goofy footers ride. City Beach surfer Rahn Goddard posted a 7.17 pt ride which was the closest that any other of the finalists came to Redmans high scoring wave. While Goddard, Paul Thompson (Margaret River) and Bob Monkman (Yallingup) were busy trying hard to knock Redman from his perch the talented goofy footer further cemented his lead with his second scoring ride seeing him awarded a 7.50pts giving him his second consecutive win.
"It was hard Yakka out there, waves were pretty inconsistent and finding a good one was hard, but I managed to get a couple of good scores and the win makes it worth while" said Redman, "I don't know what happened to Wally (Paul Thompson) as usually I have him to seriously contend with in the final, but this time I had this grommet nipping at my heels" added Redman.
