The Rip Curl Pro went off in round 4.  Bede Durbidge easily beat Dayyan Neve and looks solid like he might win the whole event. Reynolds is continuing to his best result of the early start of the season. The remaining round 4 match-ups with Slater and Irons don't look like they will dissapoint. Each match-up can have some early impact on their search to regain the throne from the current World Champ Mick Fanning.
