Nate's contest

February 6th was the trials for the first World Tour of Stand up Paddling at Sunset Beach. Nate competed, and he caught some really good waves. Conditions were really good with 8-10 ft waves (13-20 ft faces). He advanced one heat, but couldn't get a second wave good enough to advance further. However, he ripped and felt really good. True to Nate's luck, he was able to score a board for the contest just 2 days before contest day! Apparently, the picture of Nate surfing was the best one taken on trial day.

Here's a video of the trials. You won't see Nate surfing, but they did interview him. This was just after he got out of the water after his 2nd heat.
