SURF CONTEST INFO:
The Ocean Fest Vintage Surf Contest is a funky retro surf-off in which participants are required to ride vintage mid-length surfboards from the 1960s and 70s. Before each heat, contestants will be randomly “assigned” a board from our curated quiver of more than a dozen retro sticks–some decidedly funkier than others. Registration opens Friday, September 16. Sign up at www.theoceanfest.org
