6th August 2015 – WSA Western Surfing Association Trail 6
The first event on the WSA’s Championship Tour was held the weekend of August 1-2 at Trail Six, San Onofre State Beach. The WSA is continuing to have all longboard heats on the Saturday of each event. With all of the longboard heats back-to-back, in the same contest zone, the judges are able to really focus on the new WSL longboarding criteria, without having to revert back and forth between short and longboard.
Saturday’s contest was held in 2-3′ surf conditions. The waves were very mushy and soft, making it challenging to find a corner. Many competitors opted for surfing the inside, which often reformed.
On Sunday the WSA ran all of their shortboard heats. Bryce Ava Wettstein, who won the U12 division said that the conditions started relatively good, again in the 2-3′ range. As the day progressed, the waves became quite mushy.
Bryce said of winning her division, “It felt great to win because I got a good start to the season in first place.”
Congratulations to Bella Kenworthy who is dominating the Micro Groms in the under 10’s division, all the Micros did such an amazing job and show real promise as they progress!
The next stop for the WSA will be held at Surfer’s Point in Ventura, California, on September 19-20.
