ASP Final Press Release on the Contest …. O’brien Wins ASP 5* Volcom Pipeline Pro (last few paragraphs)
———————
well… it was a long run. and it ended (contest wise) in my semi-finals heat. but to tell ya the truth, it feels like i won. and thats Thanks to everyone and their constant support. i just cant begin to explain how much all the emails/facebook comments/phonecalls/text messages have meant to me…. im truly blessed. just to have so many people that care, thanks.
God did some incredible things this week. dont even know where to start. between everything that happened in the contest, and things that happened aside from it… im just so stoked with what the Lord has done. i cant explain it, but knowing that this is just the beginning of the year… i cant wait to see how Else his plan unfolds!
Anyway…. i really dont have much to say, except Thanks and keep checking my site because i’ll probably be finding videos/photos and posting them periodically over the next couple weeks.

Good on ya man! You took down Nathan and Reef and other legends! Continue to be humble and keep charging. It was killer when you compared the banks to pipe (“pipes just bigger”)…Lopez even said that Pipe likes you. Good Luck!
