COAST PAIR SENT PACKING IN PORTUGAL

Central Coast surfers Adrian Buchan and Matt Wilkinson have been eliminated from the Rip Curl Pro in Portugal.

The Ace went down to Hawaiin Sebastian Zietz in Round Two – Buchan’s top score a five, for a forehand barrel.

In Round Three, Wilkinson was desperately unlucky against Joel Parkinson.

The Copacabana goofy footer posted a 7.7 late in the heat, with a trademark backhand attack.

But the former World Number one advanced, with a 15 to 14.6 win.
