LA/Santa Barbara Middle School Results:
The Scholastic Surf Series a division of the Western Surfing Assoc. (WSA) completed event # 1 of the Los Angeles-Santa Barbara Middle School Division surf season at Mandalay Beach. The surf pumped all day for the kids and many spectacular rides and attempts were made.
The competitions have grown in the 4 years I’ve been running them and it’s great to see the talent rise. More kids, more schools and more heats mean that the boys had to surf 6 times to make the final. That’s a lot of water time when the waves are 3-6′ and good. Memorable performances were Betsey Lee who took 1st in Longboard and 2nd in Shortboard. Shamus O’Hearn took it one step surfter and took 1st in both the Boys Shortboard and Boys Longboard. Good just to all the competitors and look forward to the next event.
Thank you to all our sponsors for your support as the kids get a chance to learn to compete in a great organization.
