The competition for wave riders ages 40 and up returned for its 23rd year.
Over the last two decades, Pacifica’s Kahuna Kapuna amateur surf competition has become notorious for falling on a day of choppy waves and chilly conditions. But on Saturday morning, dozens of competitors at this year’s event were treated to a steady swell and even a hint of blue sky peeking through the fog.
“It’s a good reason to get together and have a good time and chill on the beach all day,” said Arthur, 41. “Clear your schedule and make a day for it.” “There’s a whole bunch of ways to make a community more livable for older adults,” Earnest said. “And this is my way of making Pacifica more livable for older surfers.”
