EBB Team Rider Amaury Laverhne was today crowned the IBA World Mens Champion when he secured an unbeatable lead by winning the Sintra Portugal Pro in clean 3-4 footers at Praia Grande. He lost his flipper in the middle of the final and still managed to grind out the win over last years Champion Jeff Hubbard.
"My first european event was Sintra 6 years ago and I slept on the beach in a tent. Now I am standing on the podium as the champion, it unbelievable" said the frenchman.
Laverhne has been the man to beat all year with strong perfomances in all the events he entered including a win at Pipe in February.
Props to you Amaury! EBB is very proud and excited for our newest team rider and 2010 WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!
More to come soon, as we interview the champ.
