Socal Local Greg Long wins the Eddie!

I don’t usually post too much contest stuff on the blog…but I wanted to send out a big congrats to Greg Long for winning the Eddie this year…nice to see a home grown Southern California surfer represent.

Was the first Eddie that I'd watched, and was truly blown away.. Stoked to see Navarro from Chili..first i'd heard of him. It was a great to see Greg win it - he is fearless, what a year he has had. I don't know how these guys stay on with 20 feet of white-water exploding behind them (if not on top of them).. amazing..

During the webcast, Sunny showed as having only surfed 3 of 4 waves on his last heat. When he went in with like 15 minutes left in the last heat, he still had a chance to best Greg Long's score; Sunny would have needed an 80-something.

The event was awesome tho. Potts and Freddy P did a good job on the webcast. The madness on the Kam Hwy looked like it almost matched the madness in the water. Big ups to Greg Long!
