San Clemente’s Chris Ward has landed himself an early entry in Surfline’s Wave of the Winter contest. The surfer who catches and successfully rides the single best wave of the contest period on the North Shore of Oahu wins a bunch of money (which Ward will undoubtedly want). Watch the video or Chris’ wave at Rocky Point below, it was captured by his wife Michele. He’s riding a 6’2 x 18 3/4 x 2 3/8 Maurice Cole that was shaped for him at the …Lost factory in San Clemente and wearing the soon to be released “Get Um” boardshorts for Spring ’14.
