Seniors only at surfing event

Huntington Beach is playing host to another surfing competition, but youngsters are going to have to sit this one out — seniors only.

The Southland Senior Olympics Surfing Competition is looking for people 50 and older who can catch a wave.

Surfers will be judged on their maneuvers, fluidity, style and wave selection, and medals will be awarded for first through third place.

The competition is part of the annual Southland Senior Olympics hosted by the cities of Anaheim and Huntington and partnering with the Huntington Beach Council on Aging.

The competition starts at 7:30 a.m. Saturday on the south side of the Huntington Beach pier. Come watch seniors hang ten.
