Moment of Madness Heat Schedule

Moment of Madness Heat Schedule

We are excited to announce the heat schedule for this spring's Moment of Madness contest! This is a rough idea of what Sundays' heats will look like, however they are subject to change before the event starts.

Contest Format

Our format allows each contestant to surf twice no matter what. Winners of the Round 1 heats move directly to Quarter Finals, where as 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place will move to Round 2, which is an elimination round of 3 person heats. The winner of each Round 2 heat will move on to the quarter finals, and from there on, the top two finishers of each heat will move on.

See you Sunday!

“How would you describe the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic” is a question I get asked during interviews ahead of each year’s contest. The simple answer is to say that it’s a local surf contest put on by a dedicated group of volunteers. The truth is that the contest is something more than that. It has its own soul. It has a life that we and the organizers before us can’t take credit for. I would like to think we had something to do with it, but the reality is the Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic has become something far beyond anything anyone ever imagined.

It's that time of year again, and we're opening registration for our 2025 Youth Surf Camps! Youth surf camps are open to kids ages 10 - 16 with some flexibility, and all levels are welcome!

Both cheers of support and loud laughter were heard throughout Pacific City this past weekend as surfers and spectators gathered on the beach to root on the participants in the annual Cape Kiwanda Longboard Classic. This year marks the 25th running of the beloved community event.
Started in 1998 by Bob and Michelle Ledbetter, the contest has grown to become a staple of the NW surf community. It not only attracts surfers throughout Oregon, but this year saw people from Canada, California, Washington and even Hawaii make the pilgrimage.
