Mav's Big Wave Surf Contest This Weekend?


The Big Wave Contest may be this weekend. This year, the contestants vote for the go or no go. We should know in a few hours. Here is the forecast:

LARGE NORTHWEST SWELL...THE LARGEST OF THE SEASON SO FAR...IS FORECAST
TO REACH THE COASTAL WATERS BY LATE FRIDAY. WAVE FORECAST MODELS
PREDICT SWELL HEIGHTS REACHING AS HIGH AS 20 TO 22 FEET WITH SWELL
PERIODS INCREASING TO 17 SECONDS BY SATURDAY MORNING. THESE LARGE
NORTHWEST SWELLS WILL ALSO CREATE LARGE BREAKING WAVES WITHIN THE
SURF ZONE. NORTHWEST SWELL IS FORECAST TO DECREASE BELOW 15 FEET
BY MONDAY.


Here is the official site.

They just announced no go. Stay tuned as the next big swell may be around the corner.
