Sixteen-year-old Malibu resident Conrad Carr won the men’s and junior’s finals at the NSSA Gold Coast Conference Event No.1 at Mandalay Bay on Aug. 23.
The NSSA Web site reports: “School’s back in session and so is the NSSA … And no one was more ready than Conrad Carr who had his run of the place. The 16-year-old from Malibu was the performer of the day tearing up Mandalay’s chest high peaks and nailing double wins in the Men’s and Junior’s finals. Conrad took control of the Junior’s final defeating Santa Cruz up-and-comer Shaun Burns by a considerable margin of 15.0-9.5. With the onshore winds picking up and conditions getting trickier prior to the Men’s final, Conrad maintained his rhythm and managed to pick off a couple solid scores to edge out defending Conference champion Kokoro Tomatsuri 11.0-10.0 for his second triumph of the event.”
Carr continued his winning ways this past weekend at an NSSA competition at the Port Hueneme Pier. He won the airshow with a backside air-reverse. Carr is entering his junior year at Malibu High School.
