On Monday, November 30, 2010 big waves surfers gathered at Maverick’s for the opening ceremony for The Jay at Maverick’s big wave contest, according to a story in the Santa Cruz Sentinel.
The day began with a touching opening ceremony honoring beloved Santa Cruz surfer Jay Moriarity, for whom the contest is named, and a paddle out and ceremonial surf ring in the calm waters by the reef break. . . The official contest waiting period begins Wednesday and continues through Feb. 28. The invitees get to vote on contest-worthy swells. Once the majority picks one, they will have 24-hours notice to get to the break near Half Moon Bay.
After all the boys have been through, it’s nice to the see the Maverick’s contest back on track. Click the link for the official heat draw.
