Hi everyone,

This is the 3rd year that there's been a kneeboard division. In 2012 we had 1 heat, last year 2 heats. Let's get 3 heats this year.
It's a really cool event for a good cause. Plus, it will serve as a nice tune-up for the KSUSA Titles in November. Hope you can make it!

Hey Mike,
Not sure yet. The last 2 years the heats were around 10:30. I'm expecting heats to be posted on Friday sometime. Looking forward to seeing you!

There's a couple of openings. According to Jeff, it sounds like they will take beach entries to fill the heats. Come on down.

Great fun yesterday. Stoked to see my Cove buddies make the trip down, always good to surf and hang with you all
Congrats to Jack, and to Sam for making it very close from what the fans said
Big congrats to Fish for the 3rd, and to Hunter for a good showing in his first ever contest.
Jeff Wallis (Dangerclose Products-GoPro Handles) was stoked to have everyone show up and the event organizers had nothing but good things to say about the kneeboard heats.
Looking forward to next year

Hey Scott, surf was rideable/constestable, but overall poor and weak..
Still a great day to hang together with friends.
Nice summary on Surfline's Surfwire:
