Oxbow WLT 

ASP World Longboard Tour Event #2
San Onofre, San Diego California
5 - 9 November 2008

Final Leg of the Oxbow World Longboard Tour: San Onofre        > Francaise

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 31 October, 2008 : - - From November 5th to 9th this year, the only Oxbow World Longboard Tour event in America will take place in San Clemente, CA. This surfing competition will draw the world's 48 best longboarders to clash in the waves of San Onofre.An organisation committee is a team, the heart of a competition, a brand, people with a passion who live and breathe longboarding.

For this leg of the Oxbow WLT in San Clemente, Oxbow has built a solid team of locals who have been working for months to put on a quality event. At the heart of the event, Henry Ford is a true surfing legend. At 69 years old, this local from “SanO” has a background envied by many a sports lover.

After being one of THE outstanding surfers of the ‘60s, he now makes his experience available to others by organising events all over the world: WLC in Costa Rica in 2006, women’s WLT in Cardiff. That was more than enough for Oxbow to bring Henry on board! Because longboarding is first and foremost a party, we wanted to be able to share, talk and have fun with everyone who makes longboard what it is, in California and throughout the world.

With this in mind, the OC Tavern has opened its doors to us and has even joined forces with Longboard Beer to organise us a big party on the Thursday evening of the competition. People with a passion, that’s all you need to organise a quality event in a spirit of sharing and fun. You too can follow this event from November 5 through 9, 2008 at oxbowpro.com.
