US Open of Bodyboarding weekend

The US open of bodyboarding took place June 4th to the 6th. Days leading up to it were crazy and fun. I had so many different people stay at my house, numerous LAX pick ups and never a dull moment. I wounded up getting equal 17th, one of my worst results since I have been on tour but I can honestly say that the lost has given me more motivation and drive than I have ever had. The feeling of losing in front of family, friends, and sponsors is not a good feeling. I know I didn't train enough leading up to the event with everything that I had going on with work, school and life. That is still NO excuse but If I get a result like that I want to know I atleast was the most prepared. With that being said I can not be any more STOKED for my good friend Jacob Romero who won his first USBA contest and is off to a great start for the US tour this year. Congrats!! Below is some of the activities that went down that weekend. All photos below were shot by Alex Verharst thanks Alex!
