Good evening folks. We are stoked for this weeken

Good evening folks. We are stoked for this weekend’s Doheny State Foundations Doheny Surf & Art Festival, during which the DLSA holds their annual Menehune Kids contest & the Rockin’ 60s vintage board contest.

The Menehune schedule and heat times are live on netsportsmgt.com right now and the Rockin’ 60s schedule and heat times will be available on Thursday (06/20/2024) at 8 pm.

There is still plenty of availability for all divisions in the 60s contest. The Rockin’ 60s contest gets 30-minute finals. So don’t miss this chance to surf Doheny Beach with only 4 other surfers for 30 minutes.

Ladies especially take this chance to sign up for this contest and shred for 30 amazing minutes in uncrowded surf.

The forecast calls for some very fun 1 - 2ft surf. Perfect for classic logs and tiny groms.

We look forward to seeing you all at this amazing event and festival.

This year’s Movie with a Mission is all wrapped up.

It was an awesome event put on by @surfandturftherapy. Dancing, games, food and beverages and an old school drive in right in the middle of the riding arena.

Thanks to some of our club members, Kristin, Dietrich and Gabe for lending an extra hand and volunteering at the event.

If you’d like to help out a great organization you might consider volunteering at any of the Surf and Turf events. Reach out to them to find out more information.

Thanks so much everyone for such an awesome evening.

We hope all of you had a blast over the wonderful holiday weekend.

Some of our DLSA team members made the trek north to take part in the annual Santa Cruz Longboard Union’s Memorial Day invitational.

Our club did awesome, coming in 8th place out of 15 clubs and our very own Milly Horstman came in 2nd overall in the Women’s 14 & under division. The conditions were rough with a super low tide but everyone did amazing.

We’re stoked and blessed to have participated in this amazing event with such an amazing club and we look forward to taking part in the 2025 contest.

Thank you again Santa Cruz Longboard Union for the continuous aloha and warm welcome.
