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

17. April 2008 kenach

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. 

 

 
If you want to see the footage of the days when Shane Keoni, Kelly Slater, Jake Burton, Tony Hawk, Taylor Steele, Taylor Know and all their buddies were up "Given'er, check out Burton.com
Click on Burton TV, then 2008 then Jake in Whistler.
 
It was awesome this winter when they came up. Look at the calendar and throw the dart and book your epic day. 

Bailey Mitchells video from the Staff Appreciation Day

12. April 2008 kenach

Bailey had the helmet cam rolling as we rocked and rolled all day. We hit so many good lines and jumped so much stuff. Bailey definitely hit the biggest one of the day.

Check the last hit.
