The Eddie Aikau Invitational is on Yellow Alert
The contest that never runs might run. Quik issued a yellow alert this morning and the event is on standby. A large NW is set to hit the rock this upcoming Wednesday, bringing potential to run either Wed/Thurs. Waimea just may show its teeth and for the first time since ’09 the Eddie could go. This would be the ninth time for the event in the 31 years of its existence. We’ll have to wait and see, but thus far things are looking up. The 2015/2016 Invitees: Aaron Gold, Albee Layer, Bruce Irons, Clyde Aikau, Dave Wassel, Garrett McNamara, Grant Baker, Greg Long, Ian Walsh, Jamie Mitchell, Jamie O’Brien, Jeremy Flores, John John Florence, Kala Alexander, Kelly Slater, Kohl Christensen, Makua Rothman, Mark Healey, Nathan Fletcher, Noah Johnson, Peter Mel, Ramon Navarro, Reef McIntosh, Ross Clarke-Jones, Shane Dorian, Sunny Garcia and Takayuki Wakita Official Alternates (in seeding order): Mason Ho (Aikau Pick), Danilo Couto, Mark Matthews, Koa Rothman, Ben Wilkinson, Jamie Sterling, Billy Kemper, Shawn Dollar, Carlos Burle, Kealii Mamala, Gabriel Villaran, Michael Ho, Kai Lenny, Kahea Hart, Nathan Florence, Damien Hobgood, Kalani Chapman, Ryan Hipwood, Danny Fuller, Nic Lamb, Anthony Tashnick, Rusty Long, Derek Dunfee and Brock Little
