2013 Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic

We're certainly not trying to rush summer along, but we're also excited that it's time to start thinking about this year's Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic!

The dates are set for the weekend of September 20th, 21st, and 22nd, and you can sign up now. This event is for everyone--all age groups and abilities. As long as you're riding a 9' longboard, you can enter. There is also going to be a SUP division this year.

In addition to the actual surf competition, both Friday and Saturday nights we will have a dinner and bonfire, beer garden sponsored by Pacifico, and plenty of live music to get your dance on! Don't forget to check out our demo and vendor area to see new products and equipment from brands like Volcom, O'neill, Roxy, Surftech, Kialoa, Vans, Billabong, Dakine, and much more!!

This event is one of the best times for Oregon surfers to come together to celebrate our unique coast and culture. You really won't want to miss it.
