OCEAN CITY ­ The Dew Tour
Beach Championships held their
debut Surf Shop Showdown pre-
sented by Ron Jon at the Ocean
City Inlet last Thursday night,
highlighting Ocean City's best lo-
cal surfers.
Sam Deeley landed an air re-
verse in the tow-at contest to take
the win.
"It's incredible," said Deeley of
the Surf Shop Showdown. "I was
so blessed to have the opportuni-
ty to surf in this contest. I'm
speechless. I'd love to see it hap-
pen again next year."
Competing against his fellow
Ocean City locals didn't faze Deel-
ey. "We're all friends," he said.
"We all love to surf in our home-
town on our home break."
The judges looked for high airs,
rotations and grabs, as well as
solid turns in the beach break.
Deeley's air reverse allowed him
to stand out in a contest that
brought local talent to the presti-
gious Dew Tour stage.
