Aloha! My name is Anh Pham, founder of a sustainable surfboard company called Earth Fan Surf. We are excited to host the first annual *Paepo'o Classic* surf competition, featuring eco-friendly, all-wood bodyboards and surfboards. Our goal is to raise awareness about the impact of cheap foam bodyboards that break and pollute our beaches, posing a significant threat to wildlife and marine ecosystems here in San Diego.
This contest invites surfers to reconnect with the global roots of surfing by competing on traditional wooden boards in a classic Hawaiian-style surf competition. We will provide over 20 traditional Hawaiian-style Paepo'o bodyboards for contestants, thousands of dollars in prize money, and the prestigious title of *Earth Fan Paepo'o Classic Champion* for both Men's and Women's categories. Additionally, there will be an exciting Bodysurfing Shootout contest all to benefit the non-profit animal rescue group, SurfersForStrays.org!
We hope you will help us spread the word and join us for this free charity surf contest highlighting a healthy Mother Ocean!
