US Open of Bodyboarding weekend
The US open was this weekend and it was a lot of fun, here is a recap of the how it turned out.
On friday the 22nd I got to do a quick practice heat with Jeff Hubbard, Dubb, and D-Phil before the rider check in and I had a career heat and won which was sweet! We rushed to the rider check in at Sport Chalet in Huntington Beach. It is always a good time because you get to catch up with your friends and get amped for the contest. A bunch of my family and friends got to come out which was sweet!
Saturday was the event and the waves were about 2-4ft. I got to hang out under the RXYM tent and cruise with my dad at the event. I got 5th overall in the event. Here is a quote from the press release about my performance. "Jeremy Wright did all the “Wright” things up until the semi finals with a solid effort just missing his second final, losing to the on point Romero brothers."

After the event was over I got to go to a promo for the opening of a new shop in San Clemente for my clothing sponsor RXYM. Jeff Hubbard, Dave Hubbard and the RXYM team was there to do the signing and give out a bunch of stuff. Boards, clothes, leashes and everything else was raffled and thrown out!
Signing some posters for the 100+ people who came out for the event!
Throwing some free tees out!
