The Mavericks Surf Contest 2010 is a go this weekend with the surfing contest kicking off this Saturday February 13 at 8:00am. A northwest swell is approaching meaning that big waves will be out in full force for the surfing contest this weekend. The Mavericks Surf Contest will take place at Half Moon Bay, located in San Mateo County, California.
Mavericks have been promoting the surfing contest via their Twitter account, @Mavericks_Surf, detailing the upcoming weekend’s events including a live webcast from Half Moon Bay. The Mavericks webcast is set to begin at 7:05am on Saturday with an encore presentation later on featuring ”the very best of Mavericks.”

The hatching season began Sunday, August 9 when 99 loggerhead hatchlings emerged from nest #3 at the Coral Reef Condo at 8 pm. Many crawled east toward lights of an adjacent condo and were rescued by Turtle Watch volunteers with assistance from local residents and tourists. The disoriented hatchlings were collected in coolers and released on a dark beach in western Bay County.

Each winter, during a waiting period typically set for sometime between December and March– when conditions are just right and giant swells roll in from far across the Pacific–The Mavericks Surf Contest comes to Half Moon Bay. On the call of Contest Director Jeff Clark, 24 of the worlds best big wave surfers will gather together to test themselves against the bone-chilling cold, ever-present dangers, and giant waves of Mavericks. Mother Nature’s unexpected slumber in 2007, The Mavericks Surf Contest returned at full force last winter, and lived up to expectations - sunny skies and the giant, unpredictable waves that are synonymous with Mavericks. Now, as winter again descends on the West Coast of California, we turn our attention back to the anticipation game.
