Edit- starter list
Go Brock!Quote:
Mavericks Surf Ventures is proud to present the 2006 competitors:
Anthony Tashnick, Greg Long, Tyler Smith, Zach Wormhoudt, Shane Desmond, Matt Ambrose, Brock Little, Ryan Seelbach, Ryan Augenstein, Evan Slater, Eraldo Gueiros, Shawn Rhodes, Randy Cone, Grant Washburn, Darryl Virostko, Kenny Collins, Peter Mel, Nathan Fletcher, Mike Gerhardt, Grant Baker, Josh Loya, Danilo Couto, Russell Smith and Alex Martins.
AKA, myself and brooks are coming down to watch since there isn't any new snow up here. Should be sick!
Fuck it's going off!
Checking OB in the morning *cough cough* I feel another bout of the flu coming on.
Perhaps we will see you there Mr. Pun of course we will be drunk on shore, and no where near the water!
That should be crazy! Looking at the competitiors list, should turn out to be an interesting day!!!
Any suggestions on the best perch to view? Never been down there and I'm dying to see it...help a Newbie out?
So bummed to miss it this year. I'm back east and flying back tonight. Kush and AKA - I'll call you guys in a bit. You have a place to stay tonight if you need it.
Best place to watch is on the cliff. As you hike out along the water you'll hit a cliff that you have to hike up (wear good shoes - it's actually slightly sketch). It's usually packed, but hopefully you can find a good spot.
Alternatively, I've also watched it from the bluffs. Instead of hiking along the water, go to the right and go up the bluffs and watch from there. Also a pretty good vantage point.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: BRING BINOCS OR A ZOOM LENS. Mavs is off shore and you can barely see squat without the above. Or maybe I'm just old and my eyes are bad :).
Couldn't get outta work to get down there but here's a free webcam of the contest.... http://www.ktvu.com/video/6790909/detail.html
Thanks Seanyob. That's hte best live cam I've seen without paying.
Thanks man! The KTVU feed is way better than the one on mavsurfer.com/surfline cam.
GO BROCK!!!! GO HAWAIIAN!!!!!
Sweet... when I leave for lunch I am going to leave it up in full screen mode for the viewing pleasure of my coworkers.
Ok, got the scoop on the dead link......Live feed will begin again at 1:30pst on the same link (I think) ...otherwise, go to http://www.ktvu.com/index.html and click on the webcam link from there. There should be highlights from this morning's sessions starting at noon (now) until they start the live feed again @ 1:30....Enjoy!
Damn! Still no live score/placing updates. Wonder who made the final?

Missed it too.
No, I wasn't the guy plucked by heli from below the Cliff House.
Waves were so big, I could see 'um all the way from the top of Chair 4!
Would have liked to watch Baker and the rest, looks like really good surf and light. Killer photo of Baker, Mavericks was breaking really well, glad the contest got it. I gather this swell has similar origins as the one in mid November.
