WHO: A large portion of the Jacksonville, FL, longboarding community

WHAT: Rozo One-Design Longboard Invitational

WHEN: Saturday, August 1st, 2009

WHERE: Casa Marina Hotel, Jacksonville Beach, FL

WHY: North Florida surfing/ shaping legend Dick “Rozo” Rosborough emerged from the shadows to host the Rozo One-Design Longboard Invitational, which found contestants trading off six identical 9’4” high performance longboards supplied by Rozo and Sunrise Surf Shop. With no entry fee and free food from Where Ya Bean Coffee Shop, TacoLu Baja Mexicana, and Cabo’s Pizza, 80 competitors flocked to the beach to enjoy fun little two-foot shorepound crunchers. After early elimination rounds, the top 16 surfed in three different four-man heats, with each surfer’s top score from each heat added together for the final tally. That format allowed the finalists to surf against all the other 15 contestants, not just the three in their heat. Supreme stylist Justin Quintal breezed past the rest of the field with a 26.29 (or 8.76 average) to win 1st-place and a brand-new Rozo longboard. Aaron Bowden won a week’s stay at Nosara Paradise Rentals, and the One-Design brought out North Florida legends like Clay Bennett, Bruce Clelland, John Tully, and a formidable North Jetty crew. Big mahalos go out to Paul West for making the event possible.
