nelscott reef 2009 competition. lincoln city, or. surfing.

The day got an early start.  Trucks pulled up towing wave runners.  Surfers suited up.  The tide slowly began to creep in.

Surfers were watching the waves, sporting life jackets for the big waters.

We got setup on the hill, ready to see our first Nelscott competition.  The fog began to burn off.

The wave runners were pushed and pulled into the break by teams.

The shore break was fairly large, so a bit of maneuvering was required to get out to the reef.

But it was worth it when they did…
