Showdown at the 16th Annual
BIG, BAD  AND  UGLY
 
     
     
     
     
     
  The Estero Bay Surf Club retained its lock on the “Big, Bad, and Ugly” Surfing Club Invitational by surviving a monumental challenge by rival Pedro Point Surf Club of Pacifica. Pedro Point brought 25 surfers in all divisions, but was unable to bring down the local club on Estero Bay's home court.     
 
 
 
 
Wave size at the “Rock” in Morro Bay ranged from four to eight feet, nowhere near last year’s monster conditions of 15 feet. The ocean, and weather, provided more than a challenge to the 92 participants. The contestants experienced 50 degree water, wind, rain, hail, and even an off-shore water spout. Hey Mother Nature!  Bring it on!! This is "The Ugly"!!!
