XXL_SDorianJawsByHallmanHR

Der 20. März war der Einsendeschluss für die diesjährigen Billabong XXL Awards 2013 und somit genau 12 Monate „Wartezeit“ zu Ende. Es wurden jeweils fünf der besten oder größten Wellen nominiert um am 03. Mai in Anaheim bei der großen Award Show die Gewinner in den verschiedenen Kategorien zu küren. Mit sieben Awards und insgesamt  $120,000,- Preisgeld ist eine gute Party vorprogrammiert.
Shane Dorian war das vergangene Jahr gut unterwegs und hat es geschafft Nominierungen in vier Kategorien (Ride of the Year, Pacifico Paddle, Pacifico Tube, and XXL Biggest Wave) zu bekommen. Leider ist die berühmt berüchtigte Nazaré Welle von Garrett McNamara nicht dabei, da er sich vor kurzem offiziell aus dem Contest herausgezogen hat. Dafür hat der Hawaiianer Kealii Mamala mit seiner riesen Welle bei der Portugal Session eine Nominierung bekommen.
Natürlich sind wieder unglaubliche Wellen von Greg Long, Reef McIntosh, Dave Wassel Shawn Dollar uvm dabei.
Hier die Übersicht:
