And the winner is… Raymond King of
Melbourne Beach, FL: “Hershey’s got nothing on that filthy chocolate shack.”
Honorable mention goes to Paul DiMarco
of Bayville, NY: “Time before the GoPro HD Camera, things were simple in the
cave. Just you and the wave — nothing to share, nothing to prove. Ben
Bourgeois, sitting back and being his own ‘Hero’ at Avon Pier, NC.” (You
would have won Paul, but you misidentified the location of the shot as Avon
Pier when the original caption said S-Turns — always a no-no in captionland.)
Scott Caruso of Lavallette, NJ: “Always at home in a barrel, this ‘BENNY’ is never a tourist no matter where he
is.”
Paul Lothrop of
Bradley Beach, NJ: “I'd surf my own pee stream if it peeled right.”
Raymond will receive a prize pack from Insight, who will share the love with their fave NeoLovers Tee and their popular Stone Free denim printed boardies (www.insight51.com). In addition to the
shades, our winner will receive four bars of Bubble Gum Original wax for every
season (Cold, Cool, Warm, and Tropical), one bar of Rob Machado’s Organik Blend
Wax, a Bubble Gum Air Freshener, Key Chain, and Wax Comb, and a handful of
Bubble Gum stickers (www.bubblegumsurfwax.com). Plus, get a DVD of ESM’s 2006 DVD Always Right and a four-song promo from DC reggae-punk band GroundScore (www.myspace.com/dcgroundscore) to soundtrack the summer.
