yes that is me and Darcy is correct. that is Backyards from NSG05.
I think that wave was ridden from 2nd reef to the inside and the photo
is taken as the wave hits the 'inside' reef at what Bud refered to as
the 'whitehouse lefts' portion of Backyards......
The Avatar is a framegrab that Simon emailed me.
I am hoping that it doesn't end up on the editing room floor :wink:

Contest Moved to October 15th...

Post by Don »

All -

The contest has been moved to October 15th.

This is a very good thing as July can be a very "iffy" month. October has a much better chance for surf and good weather.

Additionally, we have worked out the contest entry fee to be $50. Paul West is a huge supporter of our efforts and is doing all he can to help us keep our momentum going. This is the 3rd year we've been able to participate and the event keeps getting better.

If you would like to send Paul a note to "Thank" him for his support use his email - croatan@infionline.net

Please submit all other contest questions to me via PM.

Thanks Don for getting this done - it should be a great event and a good warm-up for the KSUSA Titles (at least for the South)!

I can't find anything on the web on the contest. I suspect the the contest has disintegrated after 40 some years of competition. Once the USSF lost control of amateur surfing in the US, its participation has dropped drastically I think. A bummer to the tradition of the US Champs die.

Hopefully, I'm wrong. Does anyone know anything about this??

It looks like the contest has been postponed again. On the USSF website the new date is listed as November 25-27.

The divisions list still includes a Kneeboard division. The entry fee is listed as $100, but Don said a $50 fee was negotiated for the Kneeboard division.

OSide locals unite

Ed,

You just may have motivated a few of us local O-Side crew to
put our game faces on.
Naturally we're not nearly as handsome or humble as you though. :lol:

See you there,
