If the comp doesn\\u2019t run, they\\u2019ve also added to the holding period to hedge their bets.

Will the surf be as good as last year? Hell no. Still, with VB holding the 2008 crown, after team Outer Banks took the big individual wins, it all makes for more controversy in a contest born out of friendly conflict.&lt;span&gt; &lt;\\/span&gt;Stay tuned for a full report of casualties and collateral damage.&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt;&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Official event email:&lt;\\/strong&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;IT&amp;#8217;S STILL ON!!!!!??BATTLE OF THE BANKS 2009 IS A GO!!!\\u00a0 THE GREEN-LIGHT WAS FLICKERING BUT WILL REMAIN ON FOR FIRST LIGHT SATURDAY MORNING.\\u00a0 THE FORECAST HAS BEEN FLIP-FLOPPING BACK AND FORTH THIS WEEK\\u00a0 AS MANY OF YOU ALREADY KNOW.\\u00a0 THE SOLID NEWS IS THAT ALL INVITED SURFERS ARE ABLE TO ATTEND WHICH IS A COMPLETE STOKER.\\u00a0\\u00a0 WE WILL BE HOSTING A COMPETITORS MEETING AT THE OB BREWING STATION FRIDAY NIGHT STARTING AT 8 PM AS SCHEDULED.\\u00a0 THE COMPETITION FORMAT AND LOCATION WILL BE DISCUSSED SO WE ASK FOR ALL COMPETITORS, TRIALIST, AND ALTERNATES TO PLEASE ATTEND.\\u00a0 IN THE CASE OF SUB-PAR\\/UNFAVORABLE CONDITIONS ON SATURDAY, TEAMS CAPTAINS WILL DELIBERATE WITH THERE RESPECTED SQUADS AND BE ASK TO COME UP WITH AN OVER-ALL CONSCIENTIOUS WHETHER TO GO FORTH AND RUN OR HOLD OFF FOR A MORE OPPORTUNE DAY.\\u00a0 WITH THAT BEING SAID I KNOW MANY OF YOU HAVE PRIOR OBLIGATIONS TO ATTEND IN THE COMING WEEKS.\\u00a0 SO WE HAVE DECIDED TO LENGTHEN THE WAITING PERIOD TIL NOVEMBER 30TH. &lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt;&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;For an extended Battle of the Banks preview courtesy of ESM, click over to &lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.easternsurf.com\\/feature_botbpreview\\/index.html\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt;\\\"&gt;&lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.easternsurf.com\\/feature_botbpreview\\/index.html\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;http:\\/\\/www.easternsurf.com\\/feature_botbpreview\\/index.html&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/a&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p class=\\\"MsoNormal\\\"&gt;&lt;span style=\\\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\\\"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;!--EndFragment--&gt;&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;object width=\\\"425\\\" height=\\\"344\\\" data=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.youtube.com\\/v\\/-76rmk2imY8&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;\\\" type=\\\"application\\/x-shockwave-flash\\\"&gt;&lt;param name=\\\"allowFullScreen\\\" value=\\\"true\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;param name=\\\"allowscriptaccess\\\" value=\\\"always\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;param name=\\\"src\\\" value=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.youtube.com\\/v\\/-76rmk2imY8&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;param name=\\\"allowfullscreen\\\" value=\\\"true\\\" \\/&gt;&lt;\\/object&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
