"\"&lt;p&gt;You never know what to expect from Mother Nature this time of year. Yeah it was the day before the vernal equinox, but the weatherman was predicting rain and 50 knot winds all weekend. The &lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.websurflive.com\\/prime\\/main.php?area=west\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;Surfing America Prime Series&lt;\\/a&gt; has some good mojo going, because Saturday there were nice 3\\u20134 foot peaks pushing through and it actually glassed off in the afternoon, something it hadn\\u2019t done in the previous week. Being the last event of the season for the West Coast, the kids were competing hard for &lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.websurflive.com\\/prime\\/main.php?area=west\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;Surfing America Prime West&lt;\\/a&gt; Season Champion Titles and coveted invites to the USA Championships at Lower Trestles, June 21 \\u2013 25, 2011.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;We kicked off Saturday with the Boys U14, Girls U16 and Girls U18 and finished the day with the first round of Boys U16.\\u00a0 Sunday, a front was bearing down the coast leaving record rains in its path.\\u00a0 It stopped short of Camp Pendleton, but it did kick up some crazy S\\/SE side offshore winds and a 6 foot plus south wind swell that mixed with the NW ground swell resulting in some serious wedges.\\u00a0 Even though sand was blowing and the U14s could barely walk against the wind with their boards doing the run up the beach, the waves stayed good to the end.\\u00a0 When the last horn went off and the trophies all handed out, the rain finally made an appearance, but not until after another successful Prime event was put to bed.&lt;strong&gt;\\u2014Greg Cruse&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Next up on the Surfing America Prime presented by Got Milk? schedule is Ponce Inlet, New Smyrna, FL on April 5 and 6, 2011.
