Red Bull Foam Wreckers coming to Jax Beach this Saturday

“Red Bull Foam Wreckers” – an event series from the mind of “freesurfer” Jamie O’Brien, produced by Red Bull and Catch Surf – is a participatory surfing event series where only foam (soft-top) surfboards are allowed, and it’s coming to Jacksonville Beach on Saturday, October 26th!       Before each surfer’s “heat” they’ll spin the “Wheel of Shred” to determine which Catch Surf soft-board model they’ll be using. Then they’ll paddle out with 6-10 of their closest new friends, all on different soft-boards, and proceed to stake their claim as the most “unique” soft-board surfer of the next 15 minutes.        Prizes are up for grabs for those that showcase the most creative, sportive moves throughout the day. This is an anti-surf, surf contest where anyone who enters can win, and having a great time is the only goal.        Male and female surf enthusiasts of all levels from Jacksonville and throughout the region will participate in the world’s most fun surf competition.        Surf star Ben Gravy will be there. Ben has been a part of over a dozen Red Bull Foam Wreckers throughout the country, and has surfed all over the globe, and Jacksonville Beach stands out among his favorite spots.        “Jacksonville is one the best surf towns in America, everyone is so stoked and it’s the perfect place to host Red Bull Foam Wreckers. This time of year can also make for some pumping surf which is exciting. The most inclusive surf contest in the world in one of my favorite surf towns on earth, it’s a perfect recipe for fun!” www.redbull.com
