rough schedule

Full contest schedule and heat sheets will be posted by Friday, Nov 12th, but here is a rough schedule for which events will surf what day:

SATURDAY:
  • 18-24 Shortboard
  • 25+ Shortboard
  • 40+ Shortboard
  • 18-39 Longboard
  • 40+ Longboard
  • 18+ Women Shortboard
  • Women Longboard
  • Expression Session
  • Team

SUNDAY:
  • 14 & Under Shortboard
  • 17 & Under Shortboard
  • Open Shortboard
  • 17 & Under Longboard
  • Open Longboard
  • 17 & Under Women Shortboard
  • Women Twin/Single Fin
  • Twin/Single Fin Open
  • Little Turkeys

***This rough schedule is not an order of events, just a list.  All events listed on each day will finish the same day - no events will start one day and finish the next if we can help it.  Also, I'll do my best to keep each event running on the day I listed above, but can't make any concrete promises until I fully create the heat sheets.*** 

Explanation - There are multiple ESA/NSSA events scheduled for Saturday the 13th.  To help minimize overlap, I've scheduled all the youth competition for Sunday.   Additionally, it will be a bit cleaner on Sunday, which will help the groms out.  For the Expression Session, I'm thinking onshore winds are better than offshore, so I went with Saturday for that event.   

Awards for all Saturday events will be given out at the banquet at RB Hunt that evening.  If you cannot make it to the banquet, you can pick up your award/winnings from us next week sometime.  We're not going to announce  or give out awards on the beach - yeah, that's our leverage to get you to the dinner!  :)  Sunday awards will be done on the beach immediately following the final heat.

Check back on Friday to see what the final schedule is - in the meantime, pray for surf! (oh, wait, you did already because it's coming)

Still Going to the Pier with the size forecast and possible no beach for most of the day each day with all the extra water pushed in by the swell?

Yeah - we have to stick with the Pier because our permit is only for there.

In years past we did a were permitted for multiple venues, and this is the first year I haven't requested more than 1 (go figure).

Anyways, if the tide pushes up super high and the surf gets all backwashy we may be able to take a break at the fullest part of the tide.
