By Di Mattison First of all, let me say how stoked I am that Chris Grant asked me to do this. It has been a long time since I’ve written anything power-rankings-esque and as a student and fanatic of the sport of surfing I have to say I miss it. Truth be told, I’m writing these things in my head already regardless of whether they get published or not.

The ASP released the 2012 Women's World Tour schedule and it looks close to identical to the 2011 version. A couple of observations... Overall prize money offered in 2012 is $770,000, down slightly from the $800,000 offered in 2011. Hawaii is once again a glowing omission from the schedule... It was a shame to watch the world title decided with hops, skips and slides in France instead of with big sweeping turns and deep barrels in Hawaii's blue walls of consequence. Please, please...one of you big clothing brands who have raked in millions and millions of dollars promoting the image of women's...
