Shane Dorian Wins Ride of the Year at The Billabong XXL Contest

Every year Billabong throws down the XXL Contest. Prizes for "Ride of The Year", "Biggest Wave", "Monster Paddle" and "Monster Tube". The banger is Ride of the Year and that was snagged by Shane Dorian, who came out snowboarding with us in January. Apperently the guy can hit the day of days in two sports. He nailed an armpit deep day with us and then a chest deep day and then a rockstar sun and pow day. Now that's three days to remember. If you want to see the winning wave and all the other entrants videos in the XXL, check out BillabongXXL.com

Here's what his buddy big wave surfer and fellow Powder Mountain Pow Pig, and westside boy, Keoni Watson had to say when he saw the wave Shane won the contest with.
