Summer Youth Clash Surf Contest
The 2014 Summer Youth Clash Surfing Contest, September 3 and 4 at the North Harbor Jetty in Oceanside, benefits the foundation’s San Diego County Chapter in memory of local surfers who have passed away. Organizers selected the site for its consistent break. The Summer Youth Clash features age 20 and under surfers vying for a part of the total $6000 prize package. The entry fee was $100. The contest is a round of 64 events with man-on-man heats after the quarter-finals. Before the man-on-man heats, Nixon Surf Team hosts a “Weird Board Expression Session” with a winner-take-all $1000 prize purse. In this event, an invitational list of surfers ride eight unique boards shaped by North County brand Chemistry’s Jason Bennett (pictured in photo by Eric Warner).
