Contest #5 Results

Contest #5 of the Outer Banks ESA district was held in south Nags Head on Saturday September 12 at the Hargrove street access in pumping surf. After about an hour of debate to hold the contest at Lillian street in Kitty Hawk where the waves were good, but soft and breaking on the outer bars, the district directors and several contestants decided to move to the alternate location. The decision was a good one as they found chest to shoulder high barrels, with occasionally bigger sets dredging on the sand bar. The dredging surf claimed one injury as Outer Banks ESA director, Jay Hawekotte, was clipped by his board on a gnarly set, sending him to the emergency room for 6 stitches in the side of his head. The toughness of Hawekotte prevailed as he came back to the contest site to help out in finishing the contest.
Several local surf photographers showed up for a few to snap some shots of the contest. The district would really like to thank Seth Burnett , Lori Douglas, and Jared Floyd for getting some really good pics. Visit www.sethburnettphotography.zenfolio.com to check them out! You can check out Lori's photos on her facebook page and Jared's photos on www.JaredLloydphoto.wordpress.com
Below are the results of contest #5. By far, this was some of the best surf seen at a local ESA contest in several events. The contestants, directors, and fans watching from the beach witnessed some great surfing from some of the best competitive surfers on the Outer Banks.
