Synthetic Swell is the first wake surfing event of the year and is being held in sunny SoCal. The festival will take place on February 22nd & 23rd 2014. The first day will be fresh water at Lake Elsinore on the 22nd and the second day on the salty waters of Mission Bay in San Diego on the 23rd.

This is not your average wake surf event and is going to be an awesome 2014 kick off shred party with fun contest like "wake surfing in the best outfit" said event coordinator Marco Thompson. This is not a competition but more of a shred sesh/demo day/festival that you can bring your own boat to if you want to show off your wave. There will be BBQ lunch and dinner with fellow ripper and anyone is welcome from first time to pro. Here is some info you might want to know about the contest:

Bring your boat, and try out the wake behind other boats
If you don't have a boat, bring your boards and surf with us
Bring all your boards to share, and try out boards you have not ridden before
Bring your wetsuit if you have one, if you don't, we have several to loan, and we have some dry suits available also
Bring some friends that have never surfed, get them surfing, expert teaching is free
Bring the family, this is designed to be a 100% family friendly event
