Surfers,

Congratulations on the solid win against Aptos yesterday! Great job you guys!!

If the winds cooperate we'll run a free surf practice for anyone that wants to surf. We'll check the conditions tomorrow morning and send out a Tweet if it is on!

How would you like to take part in one of the most exciting events in the world?!  Maverick’s Invitational Surf Competition, in Half Moon Bay (Princeton Harbor), is looking for 200 volunteers to staff this year’s Maverick’s Festival and 2012 Surf Contest.  

As you may know, the date of the Festival and Surf Competition is a moving target which will take place on one day, between now and March 31st, when the conditions are ideal – we’re talking 50’ waves people.  Volunteers will be notified 48 hours prior to the event (which could fall on any day of the week) so having the flexibility to take a day off from your normal routine is key.  There will be two shifts with the first shift from 6:00AM to 12 Noon, and second shift from 11:30AM to 6:00PM.  

We’re looking for people to fill various duties within the Festival, and in the surrounding areas. Land Safety Monitors will be posted at key areas to support local authorities in maintaining a fun and safe event (i.e. Road closures, beach and bluff closures). 

For your troubles you receive the official Maverick’s Invitational 2011/2012 ‘CREW’ T-shirt, a goodie bag and FREE entry into the festival, during the time you are not on shift.  

If you would like to volunteer please email mavericksvolunteers@gmail.com to be put on the volunteer list.  Assignments will be made once we get your email.  Join the fun.  Be a part of the action, without a two-wave hold down!

Surfers,

It looks like we have to bear through one more day of sloppy storm conditions. After tomorrow, things should start shaping up.

Due to onshore winds and raw conditions, we will not have practice tomorrow morning.

Your Coaches

HMB Surf Team:

The Northern Pacific appears to be heating up on Tuesdays so far in 2012, evidently not getting the message that those days are reserved for the team to practice at Kelly. So, we will not be holding practice tomorrow morning (Jan-12) due to a large and in-charge 9-foot, 19-second, swell.

The balmy, offshore and clear afternoons, however, have been quite a treat and for those of you who are out of school early tomorrow, you may want to consider a road trip or early sesh at the Jetty.

Happy Surfin,
Your Coaches

Surf Team Waterman Jacket Orders are now due.

If you wish to receive the team discount, you need to let me know ASAP if you plan to order one for a club member, family or friends. Once I have a final tally I will let you know the discounted price and collect checks made payable to the "Boys & Girls Club of the Coastside" at this weekend's contests.

To review the details, see this earlier post: http://www.wiredmoon-projects.com/surf_club/node/394

So far I have orders from:

-Eggers, 1 grom large
-Fisher, 1 small
-Dragony, 1 medium, 1 small
-Wallace, 1 large, 1 small

The more we order, the lower the price, however, Cassandra at Maverick's Shop may consider stocking some in the future for those who miss the boat this time around.

Many thanks, see you this weekend,
Coach Mike
