Perhaps to make up for using amateur judges, The Malibu Boardriders club decided to enforce rules with ZERO TOLERANCE. Even though a number of WSC compadres fell victim to this strict police state(Gus, Mele, Miranda) we still walked away with the #1 hardware, edging out Oceanside 2740 vs. 2570.
The surf was pumping all weekend with chest-high Malibu perfection, groomed by light winds gracing the lineup for 6 competitors at a time.
The club took first place with individual results including: First Place- Isaac Wood, Mike Gillard, Lisa Caruli; Second Place- Steve Bigler, Ricky Cunningham, Gus Day, Miranda Joseph; Third Place; Brian McEvilly, Brian & Illa (Tandem); Fourth Place- Mike Myers; Fifth Place- Hana McEvilly; Sixth Place- Matt Perrault. We flew our colors proud thanks to Kellen Lovell taking good care of the WSC tents and judging. Special thanks to Marni and Billy for amazing support and help with judging throughout the weekend.
