Seventy-two-year-old Tofino-area surfer Ruth Sadler relayed the Olympic flame to West Coast pro surfer Raph Bruhwiler during a tricky torch turnover in Pacific Rim National Park on Vancouver Island Sunday.
Bruhwiler proceeded to catch a second wave and surf the flame into shore.
This was just one of many stops for the Olympic torch on it’s 106-day journey that will commence with the winter Olympics in Vancouver and Whistler in February.
