Surf Lifesaving Sports Festival In Beesley’s Point
Courtesy of WOWSA, Huntington Beach, California. The Surf Lifesaving Sports Festival is this weekend on September 12th in Beesley’s Point Sea Doo, Beesley’s Point in New Jersey. “It is a surf sports festival for every member of our ocean community,” says event organizer Bruckner Chase.
“The festival is open to anyone age 14 to 104 and from para-athlete to ocean professional. Participants will be seeded in event heats based on experience and ability just as in a pool swim meet. The top finishers in each heat will move on to finals in order to test themselves against other top finishers.”
The events include a 250m ocean swim, 350m paddle, 600m surfski/kayak, swim-paddle solo, swim-paddle relay, and the grueling Ocean Hero Challenge (a solo and relay race that includes a continuous Paddle, Swim, SurfSki, Paddle, Swim, and SurfSki).
