BOSTON, July 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Go211.com (http://www.go211.com/), the premier action sports, social networking and online video-sharing site, announced today that Go211 Pro Team's Tricia Byrnes will cover X Games 13 in Puerto Escondido, Mexico. Byrnes will be on location July 3-6 to report on the Men and Women Surf Competitions at the Mexican Pipeline.

The X Games added Surfing to its lineup of sports in 2003 with a discipline called "The Game," in which "East Coast vs. West Coast" compete for an overall high score and team victory. This year's format will change to feature the "USA vs. The World," and will highlight Women's Surfing for the first time.

Former Olympian Snowboarder and Go211 Pro, Tricia Byrnes, has covered events for the action sports website, including last week's Rip Curl Pro Search in Chile. Interviews with X Games 13 invited surfers, as well as exclusive behind-the-scenes and lifestyle footage will stream on www.Go211.com beginning July 3rd. Go211.com users can log on to the site daily to read updates of the event from Byrnes blog, "Feel The Brynes," and watch video coverage uploaded daily.

"As someone who has competed in every Winter X Games," said Tricia Brynes, "I am excited to bring this unique coverage of the X Games to the Go211.com online community."

In addition to the exclusive behind the scenes and lifestyle coverage on Go211.com, there will be a live webcast of the event, on Go211.com and EXPN.com, as the USA seeks to out-surf The World in the first global head-to- head battle in X Games surf history.
