The event will be a “green” race and there will also be a 1/2 mile Tiny Turtle Kids Fun Run for ages 10 & under. All proceeds go to Corolla Fire and Rescue, helping us continue to better our service and keep the beaches safe!

BRETT “BACKDOOR” BARLEY?

Unknown Kid From North Carolina Steals the Volcom Show!

Pipeline, North Shore, Oahu, HI - (Jan. 29, 2010) - Nobody at the world’s most venerated surfing spot, the Banzai Pipeline, expected a young kid from North Carolina to show up in the middle of a record big-wave winter and steal the show. But 20-year-old Brett Barley did exactly that today, during day two of the Volcom Pipeline Pro. Barley posted the highest score of the event so far with two incredible rides at the right peak known as “Backdoor”: 19.67 points out of a possible 20. Even more crazy, he has only ridden a total of three waves at Backdoor in his life, and those were two of them, under the pressure of a 25-minute heat and with thousands of people watching. One and a half more days of this $120,000 ASP pro-sanctioned event remains.

Outer Banks Snow!

Some of us went to bed last night after seeing a few flurries. We all woke up to a blanket of snow laying across our little island. The roads were a little slick this morning but not bad at all after 2pm. The snow has changed to rain now but it will all freeze again tonight and a little more snow may fall too. Be real careful tomorrow morning the roads will probably be much, much worse.

Enjoy it if you can! See you at Jockey's Ridge!
