Perfect waves and amazing weather greeted us yesterday in Pensacola, Florida for stop number four of our Rip My Shred Stick 2012 Summer Tour. On hand to push kids into waves, trade off tubes and make sure everyone was having the most fun they possibly could have were Beau Foster, Brian Toth, Mikey DeTemple and Asher Nolan. The field of 65 competitors was eventually narrowed down to six finalists with Matt Wise taking the crown and officially becoming Pensacola's most fun-having surfer under the age of 16. Congrats to Matt and the rest of the competitors from today's event on a job well done. Also, we'd like to thank everyone at Innerlight for their help in making today's event such a hit.
