On Saturday, September 19, Surf City USA celebrates Huntington Beach’s Centennial with a tribute to the city’s surf heritage and coastal environment with the much-anticipated “Surfboards in the Sand.” Thousands of surfers and lovers of surf culture, will gather with their surfboards on Huntington City Beach adjacent to the famed HB Pier to be a part of the world’s largest surf photo commemorating 50 years of professional surfing at the Huntington Beach Pier.
Anyone with a surfboard (long boards or short boards acceptable – no boogie or skim boards, please); individuals, groups, families, surf clubs. So bring, beg or borrow a board to be part of this history-making photo event.
Produced by the Rip Curl and Huntington Beach Marketing and Visitors Bureau, “Surfboards in the Sand” encourages surf enthusiasts to demonstrate their devotion to protecting the ocean environment while celebrating California’s classic beach lifestyle.
A portion of all registration fees and T-shirt sales will benefit the Surfrider Foundation and Orange County Coastkeeper. Peter “PT” Townend, pro surfing’s first world champion says, “Be a part of history. Join world champions, surf legends and all your friends. If we don’t save the oceans, we’ll have no place to ride our surfboards.”
