If you're looking for a great instructor to help you learn to surf, or improve on the skills you already have, 2005 Womens World Longboard Champion Kristy Murphy is the girl!

A quick excerpt:

"After many years of traveling, surfing and teaching, Kristy reveals her favorite surf spots and local eateries to share with you during her weeklong surf and Stand Up Paddle retreats.

Guided by Kristy and her staff of professional water women, novice participants will learn how-to-surf basics, while experienced surfers improve their skills with advanced techniques taught in a fun, nurturing, non-competitive atmosphere...."

Siren Kristy Murphy Wins Dempsey Contest; Raises Coastal Preservation Awareness

Kristy Murphy not only won the women's longboard division, but also upset the men-dominated SUP division by placing 5th overall! In the end, it was all for fun and to raise awareness of WiLDCOAST's initiative to preserve the native beauty of our coastline.

From the press release:

"With more than 180 participants, the 6th Annual WiLDCOAST Dempsey Holder Memorial Ocean Festival and Surf Contest was the largest surfing competition ever held in South San Diego County. On Sunday October 18 on the south side of the Imperial Beach Pier, more than 500 spectators lined the beach to watch surfers from all over San Diego County surf beautiful 2-4 waves.

This year the Dempsey highlighted the progress that has been made along the U.S.-Mexico border to clean up the coast. With a new sewage treatment plant under construction on the U.S. side of the border, three new sewage plants operating in the Tijuana-Rosarito Beach region, and the signing of legislation by Governor Schwarzenegger to fund cleaning up Tijuana, the WiLDCOAST “Clean Water Now” campaign has made a significant contribution to protecting our coast and ocean."
Congrats to all who participated! See you next year!

Thanks for Coming to the "Ride My Board" Jule Collection Event!


We just wrapped up the Jule Collection and Siren Surfboards "Ride My Board Day" in Oceanside this weekend (October 3). We lucked out with awesome weather which helped get everyone out to the beach for some fun in the sun! Keep-A-Breast came out to support and represent for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Our hostess Julie Cox was demo-ing her line of Jule Collection surfboards in the waves while I had the SUP boards going on demo runs around Oceanside Harbor. I had never paddled the harbor before, it was awesome. There is a dock where all the seals hang out and swim. I was able to paddle right over and get a great birds eye view of them swimming from the Stand Up Paddle board. Later it was back to the beach to fire up the grill and another Oceanside surf session!


Thanks to you all who came out and gave the boards a try! As always a big thanks to our awesome sponsors for helping us make the weekend possible! Siren Surfboards, Kialoa Paddles, Costa Del Mar Sunglasses, Wildcoast, Jule Surfboards and Keep-A-Breast.


A special thanks to the Jule Collection for inviting us to participate in the event.
See you all at the next demo in Imperial Beach on Oct.18. We will be holding the demo alongside the Wildcoast/Dempsey Holder Ocean Festival and Surf Contest. By the way, there are still slots available if you would like to participate in the SUP Open Division. It's only $25 to enter, but the bragging rights for winning are priceless!

Bye!-Kristy
