	Andy Irons - Surf - Lat34.com
		Andy Irons is one of the most exciting surfers to come along since Kelly Slater changed everything in the early 1990s.
		Irons got a complete education on Kauai, from junk at Pinecones to the kind of gnarly left reefs that he would encounter at Pipeline, Teahupoo and Fiji.
		Andy Irons came straight outta Kauai with that fiery Polynesian temper and he has been known to engage in a bit of the old ultra violent from time to time.

	Irons' steely resolve - Sport - www.theage.com.au
		Andy Irons could be the most compelling champion surfing has produced in a generation.
		Irons may not be as intense as he was in his earlier years when his "all-or-nothing" strategy produced some spectacular moments of self-destruction, but he remains a combustible, competitive predator only too happy to declare war.
		In challenging two to three-metre surf, Irons produced one of the great performances of the year by surfing, in one day, through the fourth round, the quarters, semi-finals and final of the Quiksilver Pro in France to effectively claim his third crown.

	Surfing - Surfers - Andy Irons
		But Andy has not always lived the life of a pro-surfer, before turning pro, Andy lived the life of the 'punk' surfer being 'to cool' to blend with the pro circuit.
		However, fortunately for Andy and the rest of the world (although possible not his rivals), he eventually pulled himself together and now he is the model pro, a world class athlete.
		Andy continues to grow as a surfer living an all or nothing attitude.

		Irons lost to Tahitian surfer Manoa Drollet during a controversial heat as the men's competition finally got underway after a five-day delay with Teahupoo serving up 1-1.5-meter (4-6 ft.) high waves.
