For the past seven years, before Santa delivers toys and gifts, heβs been breaking away to catch some waves in Cocoa Beach on Christmas Eve morning. Pretty cool, right?
The Surfing Santas event is an annual Cocoa Beach tradition that brings hundreds of surfers dressed up as Santa. Watch them ride in on the waves and kick off your holiday weekend beachside at this FREE event.
New this year, the crowd can participate in a costume contest. Dress up in your favorite winter themed outfit β snowman, Santa and Mrs. Claus, gingerbread man, reindeer, elves β for your chance to win prizes.
The money raised supports Grind for Life, a local cancer support group, and the Florida Surf Museum.
Thank You Everybody for Your Great Work and Support

Every year, we crunch the numbers from all the stops at the Grind for Life Series to get the top skaters in each division. We also pick a few random and fun awards for standouts during the year. Thanks to everyone who came for one last gathering of good times and skateboarding to benefit the Grind for Life organization's cause.
Friday night following Tampa Am 2016 was our Annual Old Man Bowl Jam, hosted by Grind For Life where all the retired Pros, washed up T.M.s and anyone over 35 that rips basically gets their own spot in the limelight. This is raw skateboarding at its finest, and I'm pretty sure the grand prize was a six pack of cheap beer. After the dust settled and shoulders were popped back into place,
Your top 5: Jimmy the Greek, Franco Lopez, Orlando Ramos, Luca Basilico, and Tito Porrata. Congrats dudes! Big thanks to Grind For Life and Mike Rogers for hosting. Don't forget to check out GrindForLife.org and make a donation to Skate and Destroy Cancer.
There were 162 total entries with 69 of those being skaters new to the Grind for Life Series. Many of you also skated your first contest ever with us. All those good times plus contributing to the Grind for Life cause of battling cancer? What a Saturday. Thanks to everyone that was a part of it.
