NSSA Nationals held it's National Championships at Huntington Beach this past June. Kids from all over the States worked really hard all season to qualify to this event. Everyone was surfing really well in waves anywhere from over head to knee high waves this event offered.
They only had 3 judges for Explore divisions and 4 judges for Open Divisions. No high and low scores were thrown out like other National events. Not only that the judges missed lot of waves, so some kids didn't advance since one of their waves were not even counted...
Also, the kids were offered NO FOOD. Lot of the kids were forced to be at the beach all day since they had to surf different divisions and rounds with no food offered by the organizer.
I want to thank Aunti Bobbi and Miko from NSSA HAWAII for standing up to NSSA Nationals at the event when the judges were missing kids' waves. That's like speaking up to your own boss! Thanks you!
Shame on you NSSA Nationals! The worst event ever as far as how it was ran. I feel really sorry for all the kids who worked hard, parents who spent $150 and $180 per division and travel expenses, kids' sponsors who covered the entry fees, and the event sponsors who spent money into this event.
Great job to everyone who worked hard all season to be at Nationals. You kids made this event enjoyable. Thank you kids!
Enjoy the video!
