Once again, the Bama Slamma Flowrider Tournament at Waterville, USA in Gulf Shores, AL rocked the flow world. Running from Aug. 13-15, this event eclipsed any other flow event. This was the first time that all the nation’s best could challenge themselves on an even playing field, surfing the bump (beach break). Everyone came ready to bust, from California, Utah, Texas, Wisconsin, Florida and more. This event featured the best of the best and the entire weekend rocked. There was a ton of loot to be had by all, ranging from cash money to trips to Virginia and Singapore on the line. The national titles were handed out as well. Many thanks go out to all the riders, friends and family that came out to the event. Also, we would like to send a special thanks to all the sponsors who made this weekend such a special event, such as Waveloch, WCB, Blonde John’s, Victory, d.inc design, Kaiser Realty and many more.
