2023 Rincon Invitational – Apply
Team Surfing Benefit Event at Rincon March 11th & 12th, 2023
| “Over the years I have competed in countless surfing contests around the world. I’ve also been a part of the Rincon Invitational for over 20 years – because it’s not a competition. It’s all about community and connectivity at one of the world’s finest waves – and that is what surfing needs.” – Shaun Tomson | “The Rincon Invitational has nurtured me as a lifelong Surfer and Ocean Steward, and what a gift it is to collaborate together as a surfing community by sharing the joy of riding Rincon – blending our surf zone borders and mentoring the next generations of Ocean Scholars.” – Jericho Poppler Bartlow |
