Seventies carve



Anderson St. Sunset Beach/Surfside
Contestants must pick a number out of a hat to see which seventies surfboard they get to ride in the heat.
This year will be a separate heat called the "Expression Session" in between Quarters and Semi Finals with a select group and whoever wants to get in. There will be a trophy for the winner of that session. Remember to bring down the old classic seventies boards. Even though there will be many boards to ride we still want more boards down there to see and admire shapes from the seventies and beyond.

2008 Finalists


The waves decided to come in for the day starting out a little windy but calmed down for some great peaks in the afternoon. Some standout retro board riders were Linden Cabellon, Jay Larson, Pat Rydell, Chris Scarfe, Brian Ruddy, Nick Kennedy, Adam Newsom, Aaron Peterson, Mark Belmonte and Jason Warren. One interesting surfboard was the warped Randy Lewis fish that worked really well, the David Nuuhiwa fish and the Patrillo super pintail single fin were winners as well. It is great to see the myriad of shapes.
