World
class surfers, skateboarders, inline skaters and
BMX cyclists competed this past week in
Huntington Beach, with the grand finale on
August 5. Never mind a recently injured arm: Rob
Machado of Cardiff took his 10th and last wave
with so much gusto, it put him in first place in
the U.S. Open Men's competition, overcoming
Brazil's Marcelo Nunes. Machado won $10,000 with
a score of 22.96. Nunes won $5,000 and had
22.84. Machado won the U.S. Open in 1995 when
he beat Kelly Slater. Reigning champ, Sunny
Garcia was eliminated in the quarter finals when
called for blocking Pat O'Connell on a superior
left hander. Over 250,000 people attended the
Sunday event.
