Still WOWed

It's been two weeks since the Women on Waves Surf Fest hit the Capitola lineup but we're still feeling the energy here at Paradise Surf Shop.

We just received some long-sleeve shirts and sweatshirts from the event, so swing by if you'd like a souvenir to keep the memories with you as you warm up this winter. Speaking of souvenirs, we still have several framed awards, complimentary belts and raffle prizes waiting for you at the shop so come on by!

Paradise wants to send a special thank you to Heidi, Marisol and Carlo from the Mermaid Series, John and Keith (former members of the West Wind Surf Club), our awesome sponsors and all the contestants for helping make the event such a great success. We look forward to being a part of Women on Waves for many years to come.

Oh and I almost forgot...Congratulations to all the winners! You are amazing!
