Jake Halstead....First WSA Prime of the season at DMJs

Yeah...it's good to get a win in the first WSA Prime event of the '09-'10 season. Glad to get the points right off the bat!

Mid morning I had a bad heat and I was pretty bummed when I lost in the QTR finals in the 18under division. That kinda fed the fire in the 16under division, and I was determined to get some good scores. The surf was really fun all day, with nice head high lefts peeling off the jetty pretty consistently all moring. By time the final rolled around, it was choppy and closed out with a few lefts still be had now and then. I knew that it would take finding the good waves to get the scores, and..... thank God,....I guess I found them. It was a pretty good showing for Hurley because Conner also won the 18under division.  Yeah, team! —Jake
