Episode Synopsis
As a completely voluntary affair, The Brooks Street Classic Surf Contest has been a mix of local passion and improvisation since 1955. Heat-sheets are still organized according to community knowledge, and winners still become town heroes. Far more than just an emblem of a lively surf culture, the contest is an example of how a once perceived savage subculture became core to the Laguna city lore.
