Wavecrest Woodies
The annual Wavecrest Woodie meet is happening all day tomorrow at Moonlight Beach. The guys running the show commissioned a Bing Surfboard to be auctioned at the event. The group came by to pick up the surfboard, talk surfboard design, surf history and to show off their sweet rides. Be sure to check out these vintage automobiles tomorrow.

The Wavecrest Woody meet is the granddaddy of all woodie meets, held annually on the 3rd Saturday in September at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, California. You can experience the longest running and largest gathering of woodies in the world. Woodies begin arriving in the wee hours and by 8:00 am there will be around 300 woodies of every size, shape and description on display. Throughout the day there will be Hawaiian and surf music performed live, along with fabulous raffle prizes and awards for the best of the best. Wavecrest merchandise and food will be available at the event. – See more at: http://www.encinitas101.com/events/wavecrest-woodies-annual-meet/

August 22, 2023

At the beginning, it was just an idea, but at the same time, a challenge I had set for myself some time ago. Honestly, I saw it as complicated since it was my first time traveling alone to Europe, and I was curious and nervous because I was literally going to another country. The only thing that reassured me was being able to speak Spanish over there. But, of course, none of this would have been possible without the support of the entire BAPU beachware team who encouraged me and gave me the motivation not to doubt myself and make this a fulfilled goal, we organized various activities while presenting the short film "El Gordo" to raise funds for this trip.
