FA Surf Contest #1 - Westward

There was no shortage of wind or surf at the contest yesterday. In the morning, there were fun peaks all over the beach. The tide was right and the surf was pumping. Drainers had solid 5-6' surf and proved very interesting when the groms paddled out. Solid West wind bump from Friday lingering in the lineup definitely helped cross us the South swell and make for some interesting competition. The West wind came up again around 10am strengthening to 20kts by noon. All of the tents on the beach took flight shorlty after. Plenlty of EZ-up casualties filled the rubbish bins but the competition went on (nice job John for saving the the Sicky tent). Thanks of all of the competitors for coming out and the sponsors for making this another fun event.
Freedom Artist boys put on a great event as usual. More photos and results to come on Surfline.
