DUKE
Olamana Eleogram for always entertaining us each year at the Triple Crown. His 10 point ride last week at Haleiwa was his most recent feat. He broke his leg during the Pipe event last year, after a great season. His 10 point ride at Sunset in 2010 is also worth revisiting (see the 2nd video). And, of course, he’s married to Monyca Byrne (Wickey) Eleogram! You’re a hero, Ola!
