This yearÃs event will also play host to the BATTLE OF THE BANKS qualifier. Let me fill you in for those of you who missed out last year. The BATTLE OF THE BANKS saw epic 6-8 plus death pits in its inaugural year. Twelve invitees from Virginia Beach battled it out with 12 Outer Banks invitees in what many called the best East Coast surf contest EVER!!. Team VB was victorious over the home-court OBX Team in what many considered an upset.
This years BATTLE OF THE BANKS will see the invitees list remain at 24 of the areas finest athletes (12 VB and 12 OBX), and with the overall field expanding to 40 total surfers. Eight lucky surfers from Virginia Beach, and eight shredders from the Outer Banks will have the opportunity to qualify for the BATTLE OF THE BANKS by simply out placing rival area surfers in this years OBX Pro, excluding the already inviteed surfers. The BATTLE OF THE BANKS 2009 is slated to go for Mid-October, somewhere on the Island. Stay tuned for Invitees List and more info. Visit WAVERIDINGVEHICLES.COM for updates.
