Camille Juban Wins the 2012 AWT Hatteras Wave Jam
The final day of the Hatteras Wave Jam saw a solid swell hit the Island. With only a few hours left in the contest window the wind gods smiled on the AWT once again providing incredible port-tack conditions to run the Pro, Women and Youth heats… plus an Amateur/Masters Expression Session for a Chinook Pro-1 Carbon boom.
Pro heats were set for 15-minutes and the judges score cards were quickly filled up as there were plenty of waves providing long and rip-able rides. The final heat came down to an epic battle between Camille Juban, Fabrice Beaux and Morgan Noireaux. It was a super close contest with Juban’s Goiter (photo above) giving him the edge over the smooth sailing Beaux and slashy Noireaux.
Strong winds and blue skies provided the perfect staging grounds for the first day of the US Windsurfing Nationals Freestyle Championships. With consistent 20 MPH winds by noon, all riders were able to head to the water for what turned out to be an epic contest pulling off a full double elimination contest with Wyatt Miller taking home first place in men and Ingrid Larouche for the women.
The Pistol River Wave Bash takes place June 13th to June 17th. And it’s sure to be an awesome event. The AWT has just announced prize money as follows, Pro Men, 1st Place $1100, 2nd Place $500, and 3rd Place $300. For the Women it is, 1st Place $600, 2nd Place $300, and 3rd Place $200.
